Religion can be a source of comfort and guidance for many people, providing a framework for understanding the world and their place in it. It can also play a role in promoting positive social values such as compassion, forgiveness, and charity. However, religion can also be used to justify harmful practices and beliefs, and it can be a source of division and conflict.
Whether or not religion will change anything depends on how it is used and understood. If it is used to promote love, understanding, and cooperation, then it can have a positive impact on the world. However, if it is used to justify hatred, violence, and discrimination, then it will only make the world a worse place.
Ultimately, the power of religion lies in the hands of those who believe in it. It is up to each individual to decide how they will use their faith to shape their own lives and the world around them.
As for the statement that "false cored social constructs are not the answer," I would argue that all social constructs, including religion, are to some extent false. They are all human creations, and they are all subject to change over time. However, this does not mean that they are not valuable or meaningful. Social constructs can provide us with a sense of identity, purpose, and belonging, and they can help us to make sense of the world around us.
The statement that "religious beliefs are a deviance in itself" is a more complex one. It is true that religious beliefs are often different from the mainstream, and they can be seen as strange or even dangerous by those who do not share them. However, it is important to remember that deviance is not always a bad thing. In fact, it can be a source of creativity, innovation, and social change.
Religious beliefs have the potential to be a force for good in the world. They can inspire people to act with compassion and justice, and they can provide comfort and hope in times of despair. However, they can also be used to justify harmful practices and beliefs. Ultimately, the power of religion lies in the hands of those who believe in it. It is up to each individual to decide how they will use their faith to shape their own lives and the world around them.
