Religion is useless if it does not instruct us in ways we might live more effectively right here and right now. I may be steeped in the doctrine and dogma of my faith, but if I am unhappy, regretful, afraid or angry it all for nothing. My devotion to God is visible in my devotion to my fellow man; and unless I am kind, patient, generous, forgiving, humble, courteous and honest with each and every person on earth, my “religion” is only theoretical. Religion, our spiritual pathway, is a guide to living.
