Religion effects our lives more than you think it would. First off, religion helps us make simple decisions such as what to eat and what to wear. In the religion of Hinduism some Hindus would rather starve than eat the meat of a cow, they do this because the cow is a sacred animal in Hinduism. Hindus also never eat meat because it a sign of respect for all animals. When it comes to clothing not everybody dresses the same, in the religion of Judaism, Orthodox Jewish men always wear a yarmulke as a sign of respect to God. Religion can also make big decisions for people and their lives. In the religion of Buddhism if a Buddhist practices Theravada Buddhism they never marry and never worry about money. They walk from house to house with "begging bowls" and that's how they eat. Religion helps us make many decisions, from what to wear, to who to marry. Religion effects our lives in many ways and, represents you.
