abuse religion.People often use religion to justify violence and wars.They use it for personal gain and to advance political or economic agendas.The abuse of religion has always been around and always will be.
Religion should never make you feel hateful, guilty, insecure, shameful, obsessive, or negative in general.It should never lead you to commit or want to commit ill acts against another human being.Religion should foster spiritual growth and development as well as improving the health of the mind, body and spirit.It should unite people and empower them to enrich their lives and the world around them.
If your religion doesn’t do these things for you and it makes you feel negative or oppressed, then perhaps you need to find another group or church within your religion or perhaps even find a new religion completely.Never let religion harm you in any way.It was never meant to be used as a weapon.
