religion is useless.............

Religion is uselessEvery year thousands of people are killed in religion based riots. People still vote based on the topic "communalism" in the largest democracy in this world India. Communities invest millions of dollars in the religious activities. The question is "why all the cultures on this planet has one common thing religion". Is there any use of the word religion in today's scientific world? If yes then what is it? If no then why are we still carrying this burden of religion? Let's start from the very basics. There are two things in this universe. First is existence and second thing is action. When we say that this thing exists the ability to perform an action comes natural to that existing thing. Every existing thing has it's own range to perform any action. Consider that existing thing to be a center of a circle. You may consider it a light (power) source. The radius of the circle is its area of action. Religion is all about the relationship between god and human being. Lets define these two first- you may consider human being as a circle whose radius is infinite and whose center is at one point, whereas god is a circle whose radius is infinite and center is at every point. According to this definition we can say that there is a separate and individual relationship between god and human being. Now lets define religion- religion is a way to establish and realize that relationship between god and human being. For those who like to have it more practical lets consider another theory, every living thing is a kind of power, you may even say natural resource. "Religion is the most tried and tested way to explore these natural human resources." Now the question arises, if religion is that dam good where is the problem? Problem is in the application and the way we accept it or frankly speaking the way we want to accept it. Thing is that if there is a specific method of doing something than it must not be changed just because we don't like it. We can't change a medicine because it is just bitter in test. I don't mean to say that we should go for those superstitious methods or anything that looks hard to perform. What is important is that we must understand what is there for us and what is useless. How can we do this? There is one and only one way "spirituality". What is it? Spirituality is the most active and live part of religion. In other way we can say that practicing religion in our daily lives is being spiritual. Its all about being practical there is nothing like "its because it is written somewhere", "cause some people say it", No, it can't be like that. "It is because I felt it, I know it through my experience". That is the right way to go. This the way religion should be used. By being practical, feeling god as feeling anything else. We must remember one thing that religion is a weapon and we must learn to use it for good cause, other wise it will hurt us badly.
