How do we personally define 'Religion'?

the opium of the people

"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the feeling of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless circumstances. It is the opium of the people."

Just love that saying. From Karl Marx's "Towards a critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right"

cheers. happy new year folks.

Majority of the people as they mature in life believes that religion is essential.

Not essential but indoctrination.

Religion is where most cultures were founded.

No, but is/was imposed so religion will continue to accept contributions.

The orderliness and implementing of laws are inspired by religion.

It was essential because either you accept or you die.

Take away religion and its moral principles and you have chaos.

Immoral principles comes with it that's why there are chaos now and then and maybe the future...

Kung asa nimo gi pusta ang imong faith, mao na ang imong religion.
If you have faith nga naay Ginoo, then mao na imong religion.
If you have faith nga walay Ginoo, then mao gihapon na imong religion.
