REI134 Elements of Religious Traditions

            Believers practice religions.  A traditional dictionary defines religion as a system of beliefs that involves God or Gods, rituals, moral codes and prayers, according to Molloy (2010).  Many of these religions are passed from century to century, carrying ancient traditions and ceremonies.

            Regardless of the differences in religious values and practices, certain basics in religion stay the same.  The lives of people are made up of rituals and traditions.  Muslims believe in one God, who is the sole and sovereign ruler of the universe and Mohammed who is his final massager.  Christians worship God, who they believe is the creator of the entire world.  Buddhist believes in Buddha and Hindus believe in Brahma.
