Religions - basics to understand
#1
People are most intelligent species on earth, yet can be lost in a basic decision.

Going through life you begin to establish principles and morals. Even as an atheist, if you compare your morals to a religion you will begin to understand that it's not about control, but rather trouble free living and future. 

Different religions are notably focusing on specific long-term goal for all of it's followers.

As you follow a religion, it will nudge with it's basic requirements or outlooks what the collective mood should be in relation to your well being, your neighbours, your culture and overall groupthink.

With the most complex organ in the known universe, we can do various things - have imaginary conversations, imagine images or situations, plan and prepare our next steps. By using our abilities, we're improving them. The same applies to bad practices. If you're taught religiously to have certain outlook on other cultures or groups of people, it will be a hardcoded groupthink.

Modern population without a religion rely on "facts" and "opinions" that make decisions on their part, and easiest to influence to follow the modern living as their culture. Having no expectation leaves the gates open for any solution that comes around. That's often why we end up with the choice between the best of two evils.

Establishing your moral code before you ever come across the cards handed to you will show you the reality - "the truth" that allows to focus on the larger picture rather than argue a pointless choice.

Some religions are built on war, others on peace, or just for everyday living like in small countries or islands. Religions also establish cultures that allow for norms to work with those morals, so that what you do and what you decide is understood by others.

Religions are often not mention nor considered as part of everyday life or influence in major cities, but it's followed by billions of people and influences global ideologies.
