Religion Or Culture? by SweetOlive(f): 3:31pm On Dec 15, 2019
Y’all know Religion gives us a sense of purpose; whilst culture enhances our quality of life and increases overall well being for both individuals and communities at large.

Which one is more important to keep up with? I’d like to see myself from your own point of view.

Cheers.

Culture = history.

Most if not all cultures are products of religion.

Religion is base on faith . what we believe in . particularly as it regards to the unknown. In many case the afterlife... Through religion we try to connect with our Maker, secure our afterlife among other things.
To achieve this we must abide by certain rules and regulations... Guidelines. This is what forms our culture.
While other factors such as environment may determine our culture religion has played a key role.
For instance dressing culture: most of African cultures did not develop an advance dressing system because we had a nice weather. If we lived in cold regions or the desert we would have had a different dress pattern. War and trade also created some cultures but religion has always influenced all cultures.
