Religion is more than just a belief in a deity. Religion is philosophy and
a way of life. It can define who you are, how you view the world around you and how you interact within it. There are as many different types of religion as there are different types of people.
Some religions and beliefs you may know about, some may seem strange
and some you've probably never heard of before. Hopefully the information provided on this page will help some people understand the beliefs of others and clear up misunderstandings that may have gone on for generations. You'll discover that people have more in common than you'd think.
I've written descriptions of some world religions to give a basic definition of some of the belief systems.
The following links represent a small fraction of the world's religions, so enter with an open mind and explore.
