division religion

Religion Divides Religion is defined as the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods. Everyone can understand that. But what really is religion? Religion is a system of beliefs, based around a central deity, created thousands of years ago to explain the mystery of the world around them. As time went on, people devoted themselves to live a more religious and holy life. Today, there are still people who devote their entire life to following their religion. They convince themselves that what they are doing is the only way to live a proper life and that other religions are wrong. Because of this, religion is a very strong dividing force in the world. One example of how religion divides the world is the Crusades.
