MY PERSPECTIVE ON RELIGION

 Hi readers!

Today I am going to talk to you about my perspective on religion.

Since I was little, I have received the teachings of the catholic church; as a matter of fact, I was baptized with only one-month-old. Even though my family considers itself catholic, they are not so devout of the Catholic  Church as an institution. 

I need to begin mentioning that I have not had others experiences with any other religion but the catholic religion. Nowadays, religion is not important to me, I do not consider myself as a believer of any in particular. Besides, there has always been discrepancies within the Catholic Church because of the various crimes it has commited, therefore being everything but consequent with their preachings, harming people, with hate speeches and discrimination, either because their sexuality, origin, beliefs, et cetera. The Church is like this even with its congregation, always giving them boundaries and feelings that they should consider themselves as guilty for their acts, but for them, religion is very important because they get a feeling of security and belonging. 

In the matter of faith, that it is what religions have in common, I believe that is formed in the people’s union for a determined belief or situation, that does not have to be necessarily associated with any religion, where I think that everyone in some way is a believer.
