Why does everyone think you HAVE to believe in something? Do you feel it's wrong to not put faith in a religion? I'm not religious in the tiniest bit. I know some people think that you never know what you're missing out on until you try it. However, I've never even cared or have been concerned with trying to find religion in my life. Why is religion so important? (link)

sir, all religion are a path for a human being to reach their divinity nature. i will tell the basic few quotations from each religion, it has the essence of what it is. jesus said, love thy neighbour. -it means you have all contradictions and conflict only with your neighbour, if you love him, your contradictions, you will become whlole being, then there is no suffering, or you will move into compassionate- a quality for divinity. in islam, i read it some where, as mohammed said, don't do anything which hurts you if somebody does same to you. it is also path of non violence- if you follow this also, you will not create any himsa-suffering - to any body in the world. the other major is hindu- first it is not at all religion, it is a culture identification for those people who lived in the banks of sindu river to ganges river or who lived in this undivided country. where people lived with inner wisdom. anything that you call as religion, is reached you from books, scripters, from somebody as word. in the ancient times they created this scientific path , do's and don'ts for life - since people are illiterate and not heiginie. also all schools which taught religion only taught to that person to evolve his inner nature not like present day system of mere knowledge. it is an experiential process. but as man get educated, when his logic started work, he needs explanation for everything. also on the other hand, people used this tools very long time, slowly missed the essence and had only stories. so this person could not reply for the other and other start neglecting the whole process since it does not suit his logic. so somewhere the connection between the science and experience has lost. and logical people added their own interpretation to whatever they got, and reached many people because they are sound in logic. rather on the other hand, people who followed also not evolved themselves to higher dimensional experience. ok let us come to your topic. the word religion means turning inward. walking towards your core identity. still in this new technological world, tools like yoga are powerful media and effective since it does not require any believe or devotion or anything. there are few living guru's (master's) now also available for you to explore your innerself. as a practioner of yoga and a walked all over the country i know this from my experience. unless you doesn't turn inward, suffering will not end to you. how to turn inward, why i should turn inward is next step. but i can refer a book , which has collection of question and answer from a living master. if you wish, get one and read it yourself. if you does not satisfy just ignore it, or on the other hand , if you really search for a religion, (inward journey) definitely it can help you much better way. encounter the enlightened is the name of book , relised by isha foundation, which promotes yoga and spiritual aspect to the depth. but one thing i want to tell you, if people not turned inward, they will simply blame others or something for their suffering and created suffering for others also. it is like you must sleep, if you have to work . like that only if you can maintain your inner engineering best way, you can reach people much more effective way and a joyous society around you. for any assistence you can contact me. if you wish you can rate this answer.
