 Religion


"Religion" is a simple word that divides humanity in several groups. It is the
claim of many influential Christian and Jewish theologians that the only genuine
basis for morality is in religion(Nielsen 13). The morals and beliefs of
children are greatly influenced by their home life. It is sad how children grow
up, not able to research into their beliefs, but conform to the beliefs that
have run in their families for generations. Not many children break away from
the traditional religion in their family because it has been practiced and
influenced for many years. If one should participate in breaking tradition, he
could be challenged by the family to show reasoning behind the change(Kaplan
258). In doing this, society still will be diverse, but at least that is one
more person trying to express an opinion. The Old Testament is an accurate and
valid resource to use when trying to explain Christianity and faith.
