How does your religion influence your life?

Religious doctrine,gospels and rituals greatly influence the life style of a person,in many ways.It instills and strengthens one's faith on super being,the Almighty God and his grace.It motivates one to live a life of humbleness,honesty,tolerance,truthfulness and non-violence.However,the sanctity and importance of all religions are gradually eroding in the light of the growing religious riots and violences,in many parts of the world,greatly affecting the communal peace and harmony. What are your view points?

my religion gives me a personal relationship with the Gods, and a great reverence for nature. I can't look out on something beautiful and not be elated. when I need help I can turn to my Gods for comfort and advice or teaching. it is a good thing in my life.

for me religion is a big factor in my life. i and my wife have the same belief and lucky for us to have the same belief. sometimes a relationship can be ruin if couples have different beliefs. religion and my faith is one of the factor that leads my life on not being rude to others. i believe in do not do unto others something you dont want others to do to you.

i am not traditional. i just believe in God for guidance and support in daily life. i dont do any rituals. and God is everywhere, so u dont need to go to church. u can talk to HIM wherever u r. HE is always there for you, no matter what.
