Religion's purpose is to provide the recipe
for an ethical way of living in this life
with the hope that will continue
into the other life, if that exists.
Its a philosophy to guide our lives
to keep us on the right track.


This is the main purpose of every religion
independently from how that is called or marketed into the wider public.


Whether the pavlova recipe is written by Nigella or Jamie or Mary Berry,
it does not really matter as far as the result is concerned as the result is a pavlova anyway.
In other words, whether the recipe is called Christianity or Buddhism or Taoism,
it does not really matter as those serve the same purpose.


However, people forgot the purpose of the latter
turning religion
into one of the most complicated political games.

Faith

Faith is the confident belief or trust in the truth or trustworthiness according to my favorite wiki.

Faith can sometimes be confused with religion...

Religion is not possible to exist without being faithful but faithfulness can exist without being religious. And that is because religion exists to "show us the path" but it does not necessarily teach us to be faithful.

Faith is something internal & can not be taught or learned but only be carved in our minds by the heartbeats of true believing...

Believing... 

*  in ourselves & in others

*  in our own personal choices & not in destiny

*  in inspirations that do not exist but we would like to & could create or establish

*  in dreams that we would like to be realised

*  in the cure of an illness that the doctors claim that will not probably be cured

*  in aliens or fairies that we don't have proof of existence but are probably out there

... that it's all about faith.

Some might not believe in our ideas because their mind might just be unable to perceive them as our mind does & see them as illusions or paranoias... Forgive them because they may never tried to see how having faith feels or their heartbeats of believing are simply not as strong as ours...
