All my life I have had a conflict with people who become very obsessive or have a big fanaticism towards any religion, since I was a child my beliefs, or well my family and my environment have made me grow with a certain established religion, but I I did not choose, despite this I have always respected my way of thinking and seeing things, because they are not religious fanatics, but they understand me and know that there is no better religion than doing things right, and in a correct way. I have always found disturbing those people who enter a church daily and even several times a day, and chest blows from the doors of the church inside, but when they go out they do the worst things, they are people who criticize, they lie , they speak badly about people, then; Do religions really make us a better person?

Looking for spaces in life you realize that there is no better state of mind than tranquility, peace and quiet, connecting with the universe, with a simple look at what surrounds us, feeling peace from within is the best symptom of freedom, doing things well and giving the universe positive things.

Sometimes I think that many religions have become business, money in exchange for faith.

# They charge you for having a space of spirituality
Not all religions force to pay, but often a payment is given, what many know as a tithe, I understand that in some way a certain community must be supported, a certain environment; that in this case it is a church, but I have seen a case where many of the people in charge of this office, are bathed in money. Church pastors who want to pay tribute to God by taking money from others? The truth does not fit me much this.

I know some of the thousands of religions that exist in the world and believe me that the best religion is to be a good person, not to go to a church to pray and then go out and do evil in the world.

# Regarding the Catholic Church, which is the one I have lived with the most
My family is purely Catholic, and in fact I am, but I believe that this is a paradigm that must be broken, since I like what this religion proposes from the mouth to the outside, why do I say this? the commandments, the sacraments, etc., all this is fine; but the authorities of this religion will never convince me, first in the sense that the family is spoken of as a base, and priests and nuns do not establish a family; So, what I'm going for is that I think it's a silly ideal, that a person talks to you about something they do not know. Another point that I will always disagree with is to talk about hunger in the world, when in the Vatican they sit on gold, they are things that I will never understand, so I just think that the best religion is always going to be love what you do, be a good person, do not hurt people and do things correctly.

I respect that many people decide to dump their lives and dedicate it in that way to something, it is their sacrifice, but as many of these people are good, some not so much, I say this from my own experience, I studied in Catholic schools and many of these parents and nuns live their lives in a bitter way, so why give yourself chest strokes and do something they hate?

As well as Catholicism, Christianity, Buddhism and thousands of other religions, I believe that if one offers the universe positive things it will reward you in the same way, doing things well and helping are the basis for a full life , I believe that a religion does not make us a better person, I believe that our essence and our way of acting if, what do you think?

I've always liked the idea of Lennon in his most famous song: IMAGINE
