The world is encapsulated with so many religion embedded with different doctrines, teaching and belief which have affected our sense of reasoning in different ways. Religion has raised serious concern to mankind especially in terms of sociopolitical and economic coexistence. The major cause of insecurity in most part of the world today is the problem of economic and religion supremacy where everyone seen to uphold their religion with virtue and in a high esteem and even considered it to be the only true region and the only way to salvation and internity thereby condemning or seeing other religion as fake. So therefore, considering the problem associated with religion differences in world today, I think the world would have be a better place without religion.
Religious discipline has been evident since the beginning of the world, but it divides people into different tribes. Religious system encourages people as a background for building a just and harmonious life and a harmonious religious discipline. However, religion and politics are regulated by different laws and practices in different countries. As it can be said that in some countries the influence of religion on politics is severe, for example, in countries like France, religious discipline is strictly suppressed in politics, and in Canada, politicians are free to express their religious thoughts and identity. So I think that religion and politics are two social phenomena, just as religion shapes the value system of people and determines moral rules and regulations, politics shapes the rights and systems of individuals. So I think not religion but some political abuse is creating unrest in the world.
