WHY is Religion Practiced?1. Fear: Life’s trials can be too hard to bear or
resolve on our own and faith helps us through.
2. Wonder: The rich complexity and diversity of the natural world is still largely unexplained.
3. Questioning: Religion can offer answers or comfort to the uncertainty people have.
4. Identity: At some point in life people sense a deeper, more permanent, purposeful element to their identity often described as a soul.
5. Intuition: Religious practice draws us away from the material and helps us seek refuge in a deeper mystical truth.
