How many of you would help someone else understand their own religion?

Answer 1

Yes, definately. I am always willing to help someone else understand their own religion as best as I am able to. I have done this before for friends and friends of friends. Usually they already belong to a religion, but are interested in studying it more in depth (the theologies, doctrines, histories, etc....to go beyond just the basic rituals and basic beliefs). I let them know what I know, help them find books on the subject, and of course introduce them to others in their own religion who very learned and wise in the knowledge that they seek about their own religion (and I'm willing to go and listen and learn myself...perhaps because I'm just the eternal student ever eager to catch a glimpse of some new knowledge that I might not have known about concerning whatever topic it is...and usually the fact that I go with they say helps them a lot because often they don't feel comfortable going alone).

Answer 2

I would because once another understood his or her own religion it would be obvious that religion itself is from God and that there have been several Messengers sent by God to educate the people.

We have evolved significantly since language and then writing came into use. Once that happened it was easier to store and spread concepts concerning agriculture, the arts and science. Our languages have become much more complex and thus we are more able to communicate on the abstract level. You don't have to go to the place where a great mind lives to wait for a time when he or she will see you. All you need do is develop the discernment that is required to choose writings that are beneficial to the evolvement of humankind. Literature that promotes the spiritual qualities of love, justice, tranquility, productive life, generosity and so on are superior to that literature that teaches war, hatred, racism, genocide, selfishness and the other poor qualities.

In general the religions have been good for man. Be you religious or atheist you start your life with a moral sense placed in you by God. That can be trained out of people in some cases as in the training of military people whose jobs are to kill or torture. Once the line is crossed these poor souls are destined to live on the streets and to be tormented by a bad conscience, drug addiction and ill health for life.

Religions purpose is to promote the well being of humanity through the love of God and the embrace of the spiritual qualities.
