The Culture of Religion

Religion plays a huge impact on one’s culture. Religion is a set of beliefs and understandings, and in some cases even rules which the individual should abide by. Religion is passed on through generations; therefore, as is culture. But just because past relatives were; for example, catholic means you have to the culture of a catholic only, the society you live in also have an effect on religion of culture. But religion does have a huge impact on culture; for example, the clothes in which one religion wears will most certainly differ to a contrasting religion. Religious cultures within a country are more and more common today, especially in England where we have more and more people entering the country. These people have their own beliefs and therefore practice them; Thus, causing huge conflicts within the nation.  But conflict between the two religions does show that we have different culture and that each individual cares about their own culture. Cultural differences between different religions much be respected. It is easy for us to say they do this, they do that, but then we talk about yourself it is totally different. We need to see things from different perspectives and different cultures. People are grown up within a culture which has religion; to them this is the norm. We must not judge them but respect their values, their religion and their culture.
