Religion directly comprises a massive social act in which marks the tendency of people in the world and direct personal doctrines are very influential in the behavior of people
Religion is characterized in having an organizational structure where regulations and rules are issued to remain in the cult which in turn are those that direct a social order and set the tone in the world being influential in the duties and rights of citizens towards the neighbor as towards the human being in particular.
In my personal opinion I consider that the damage that a religion in a society may have doesn’t depend on it, but on every practitioner, since all religions have flaws since nothing in this world is perfect, but a balance can be achieved where people feel comfortable with their beliefs, respecting the social norms implemented, such as the values of citizens and can be avoided THE GREAT EVIL OF RELIGIONS WHICH IS DENOMINATED AS THE FANATISM.
Fanaticism is considered as an obsession towards an action or some element where flexibility does not exist and surpasses the common sense that people have, uncontrolling the basic priorities of the human being, making bad decisions for not having a broad thought of the consequences of each action that is taken.
Religions tend to foster this fanaticism by wanting to direct their cult towards the norms of their organization, but I believe that in life there should be a middle point where a point of flexibility can be demonstrated where the person does the right thing morally without falling into addictions. and that the citizen values that allow to grow and be a better person to contribute with their good actions to society can be fulfilled.
In conclusion I can say that religions do not harm society but depending on the actions and how the lifestyle of each person of the different cults is carried out, it will be possible to show whether or not a social harmony is fulfilled depending on the interpretation of each message that wants to transmit said religion.
