Religion and psychology at the beginning of the new millennium

Abstract

Religion has a serious impact on our world. Most people in the world consider themselves to be religious or those to whom religion has a significant impact. It also helps to determine the type of culture that forms political and economic views. In an individual dimension, religion affects human communication. Although it can be viewed as a means by which society controls its members, it is more than just a social and managerial phenomenon. Religion is a human attempt to achieve spirituality. It is our attempt to gain and maintain the meaning of our destination in the world, which sometimes seems pointless.
