The Positive Effects of Religious Beliefs on Mental Health
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Religion has been around for centuries. It has produced a set of beliefs that bind people and affect their daily lives. The teachings of religious scriptures have shaped people’s attitudes and behaviors, culminating their practices. For instance, Muslim men can marry as many women as they want; while Christians, as their teachings say, can only marry once. Religion also takes most of its devotee’s time, depending on how high their devotions are. Some pray the whole day, or spend their whole day in the temple or church. Others just pray at home, alone or with the whole family. On the other hand, there are also those who balance both.
