Hi mate, Humanitarianism is the best pattern and a way of life that we no need to search it in religious book vice versa, we can not find such a thing in religion at least in islam
Religions are created to control the masses (people). That is my belief as well as many others. I do believe in a higher power, but also believe man uses them for their own means in the name of "religion".
In the beginning God formed a body from the dust of the earth. Blew into him the breath of life and he became a living being. Helpless?
God walked and talked with man and imparted wisdom.
In the same way a mother and father walk and talk with their newborn child. However what wisdom does man have?
Did man listen to God and retain the wisdom that was given in the beginning or did they deliberately forget and teach the wisdom of the world which is coming to nothing to their newborn child?
Religion God accepts is this: To look after the fatherless. The widow. Those in distress. The helpless. To keep your tongue from cursing. From foul language. From coarse joking. To keep yourself from being polluted by the world and having the innocence of a newborn child offer your body as living sacrifices holy and pleasing to God.
But man perverted his ways. His wisdom became foolishness and death. The intents of his heart became evil all the time and he filled the earth with violence and bloodshed. Some did this in the name of their religion thinking they serve God.
But what religion did God have in the beginning? He provided for those in need. He blessed them. He helped them. He protected them. What law is there against love?
What will you teach your children? What wisdom will you impart?
The religious mind is hostile toward God and men seeking to establish a righteousness of its own and oppressing those it comes in contact with. But if you are able to control your own body in a way that is holy and honorable then you take a step in the right direction.
Finally if you consider yourself religious then this is the acceptable religion: self denial. self sacrifice.
Everything is permissable for me but not everything is beneficial. Everything is permissable for me but not everything is constructive.
I Believe that we now have over 3000 Different Beliefs Systems (Religions), that was Caused By Subdivision Of the Different Beliefs Mostly Beginning In the early Days Of Rome and still Continues today, Because Nobody wants to Agree, Same thing that has Caused many Wars.....
Of all of the Beliefs systems, I believe Their is, and Can be only one Truth!
Finding it May Take a lifetime! Sadly...
And who would Listen If We Did know the Truth?
Because Mom Or Grandma said it, Does not mean it is The Gospel!
Yes, the short answer being to provide not only social order but also to make sense of the world before sense existed (i.e., knowledge about organic, inorganic, and cosmic processes). Prehistoric humans clearly had rituals and myths and gods. A really interesting question is, did Neanderthals? It would be a remarkable archaeological find if so, even rudimentary ritual!

the truth is there is no truth to any of the religions,past present or any that will be popping up in the future. We laugh at the old religions and sometimes in the future the present will become old and we will be laughing at the ones we have now.
According to What the Bible says, Satan Created War against God, By Rebelling Against God, Revelation 12:7 And Their was War in Heaven, This was Before Creation of Man, Satan was Cast Down to earth and 1/3 of the fallen angels with Him, In Spirit Form ( Immortal Souls ) Those Spirits were Introduced into man along with Gods Spirit, So Man is Divided Between Good and Evil ( Spiritual Warfare )
I Know Many do Not Believe in God or the Bible, So I will Not Elaborate about it much, But this is what the Bible says... Who can Prove it either way? This Is a Subject I will Not Debate on.. Hope this helps... But I Have Read it!

The Dark Crystal, that muppet sort of film from the 80's, was it? That told a similar story of the concept of good and evil in one being.
Do we take that story literally?
Or do we use it to reflect upon certain ideas about who we are, how to reason and how to behave?
