Religion is belief in a god or gods and the activities that are connected with this belief, such as praying or worshiping in a building such as a church or temple. Religion is a way of life of people that expresses their communication with a supreme being. Religion teaches values such as love, humility, honesty, generosity, truthfulness, kindness, hardworking, modesty, patience, peace, and cleanliness.


Religion is a key element in every culture and in every phase of history.

A religion is a set of beliefs that is held by a group of people.

There are many different religions, each with a different set of beliefs.

The beliefs are about the world and the people in it, about how they came into being and their importance to society.


These beliefs are linked to "supernatural" beings such as God/Allah, a number of gods or spirits. They may also be linked to an idea such as a path that the spirit of each person should take towards goodness, truth and duty.


Each religion has:

- different ideas about these things

- a "moral code" which is a set of beliefs about how humans should act.

- its own type of "devotions" when people worship or pray.

- religious "rituals"(special things that are always done in the same way) at certain times of the year or certain times in a person's life.


Other words that are used for "religion" are "faith" and "belief system".

People who do not believe in any religion are called atheists.

Ghana is about 78% Christian and Islam is the smallest religion in Ghana. Why did you bring Islam first? You are making it seem as if Islam is the predominant religion in Ghana.
