    Dina Abudaih

    I am an American Muslim who was born in Jersey City, New Jersey. I love the U.S. and was really concerned to see some Muslims facing discrimination after 9/11. My goal is to vindicate this religion from the misinformation that brings shame and torment to its peaceful and conforming believers. My goal is to see all people united, no matter what religion, race or gender they are.

      Introduction to Religion

      Religion is a word that we often hear but do not really know the complexity of. Most people will refer to religion as a belief a group of people might have, but is that all religion is? Is religion simply a set of beliefs people value? According to Paul Tillich, a German American existentialist philosopher and theologian Religion is the state of being grasped by an ultimate concern, a concern which qualifies all other concerns as preliminary and which itself contains the answer to the question of a meaning of our life (The Spiritual Situation in our Technical Society).

      For many, religion influences attitudes, decisions and behavior. Religion is a part of many people’s lives. People around the world observe different religions. Many religious concepts seem so unworldly and abstract, yet people bewilderingly accept them. Religious beliefs related to the purpose of our existence range in intensities. There are those who believe life is simply an assessment judged by the creator and should be spent worshipping and there are others who believe life is meant to be lived spontaneously. Over the years, people of different religious backgrounds have had their discrepancies. Religion continues to be very contentious and oftentimes a group may develop a feeling of superiority towards other groups because of their strong belief in their own faith.

      There are many religions observed around the world. Within the major religions are sectors in which slight variances are established, more information on this topic can be found in The World Factbook located on the Central Intelligence Agency website. Religion is very multifaceted and often hard to fathom. It is common to witness disagreements between people of the
