Religion is one of the worlds largest topics of discussion. With so many factions, different religions, atheists, agnostics and scientologists it is hard to pick a side, or even know who is along the right lines. There are hundreds of web directory links out there leading you to different religions websites, although it can be hard to decide which to follow.

Religion has however been the cornerstone of civilization, allowing humanity to rise from a disorganized rabble to the current global species with cities in every country on the globe. While some may contest its usefulness in today's society, in the past it was a hugely effective way of controlling crime and the populace in general.

Religion wise you may be looking at Muslim, Christianity, Hindu, Jewish or Sikh, all of which have similar ideals but have suffered some terrible conflicts over the centuries. Religion itself is the number one cause of conflicts the world over, though many argue that if religion was not the reason, something else would be.However, people are free to believe in the god that they want. Nobody is forced to have a religion because this is against the rules ( Religion Freedom). The Christian people for example guide themselves after the Bible, while people belonging to other religions have the Coran or other books which they consider holy.

In addition to that, as stated before each religion guides after a set of "rules" which include not committing murders as well as not to steal or lie. Rules such as these have prevented many societies from declining. Some people can exagerate when talking about religion and become extremely devoted to Church. When it comes to categorizing religions, there are all sorts of religions from the extended ones with billions of believers to those that are popular among communities and only have a few members.

To sum up, religion is a topic that has always been discussed and the existance of gods is still put under the question mark. If you would like to be part of a religious community and you have troubles upon deciding which one, Jasminedirectory.com can give you links to the webpages of certain religions that present basic information regarding this and you have where to choose from.

However you look at it the religions of the world have had an impact on both people and society the world over, shaping our civilizations with some of the worlds most beautiful art and architecture.
