Does religion empower people? Religion has the power to
influence a lot of things. Some may be good and some bad, but the overall
effect gives power to people that they never thought they had. This strength can be compared to other experiences; in the military you are taught to push yourself
past your limits. Religion pushes people to continue and fight for their goals.
Religion also has the power to make people do great things. Almost all
religious texts explain stories and teach the correct ways to act and the right
way to treat people. These teachings
shape people and are known to transform people. Most people’s lives are changed
when they discover religion. A person from my high school was on a path towards
drugs and crime but he then discovered God. An instant change in personality
and appearance was apparent. The way he acted was amazing to everyone that knew
him before the change. One thing is for sure, religion is a powerful tool and
should be wielded by those with worthy intentions.
