World Religions

Do you stay within your current religious organization even though you don't agree 100%
with all of its dogmas or beliefs?

I stay with my current religious organization even if I do not agree with all of its

doctrines. History has seen many people find comfort, identity, and morality in religion; this has

driven me to remain and stay within my current region organization. Religion frequently

provides hope and moral guidance among life's complications. Therefore, staying in a religious

group is helpful and ethical despite disputes. Even if they disagree with their religion, people

may love its rituals, customs, and social components. Therefore, this has driven me to stay in the

group despite secretly disagreeing. Even though I do not entirely agree with all of the beliefs of

my current religious group, I have decided to stick with it because, through history, most people

have found solace, a sense of belonging, and ethical direction in their faith, and that is why I go

on to be a part of my religious group.

Staying in a religious organization despite disputes is good and ethical. Hence, personal

history matters; many of us grew up in religious groups with close connections (Astrachan et al.,

2020). Even if we disagree with some beliefs, familiarity and belonging might keep us. Religious

variety enriches society; different religions provide a complex tapestry of ideas, values, and

traditions that promote tolerance and understanding.

What do you think about the option of converting to the more welcoming positions of certain

temples, churches, and mosques?

I understand and acknowledge that converting to a more welcoming church community

allows people to connect their principles with a supportive atmosphere that promotes individual

development and spiritual fulfillment. Therefore, I accept that if you disagree with your present
 3

religion, converting to a more accepting faith group may be fascinating. For instance, The

Disciples of Christ could embrace anyone pursuing a more accepting Christian society

(Patwardhan et al., 2020). Motivated by the Stone-Campbell Revival Activity, the Disciples of

Christ promote Christian unity, open friendship, and non-dogmatism, welcoming those seeking a

multicultural Christian community.

I understand and agree that a middle way between Catholicism, Protestantism, and

Anglicanism has many beliefs and customs. Some Anglican churches are progressive and

inclusive. A more liberal and ceremonial Christian experience could be found within the

Anglican Church. Progressive and inclusive Anglican churches provide more liberal and cultural

Christian expertise, representing the denomination's broad theology and ceremonial activities

(Héliot et al., 2020). Therefore, I declare and agree that Unity churches are noted for accepting

varied views and spiritual practices. Therefore, they stress personal spiritual growth and inquiry.

Hence, these communities can welcome and assist non-traditionalists. Unity churches emphasize

personal spiritual growth and investigation in an inclusive faith.

I dedicate that Many Islamic groups and movements promote tolerance, diversity, and a

progressive understanding of Islamic principles. Hence, these groups can offer a forum for

Muslims who respect their identity but want to make adjustments to their faith (Fowler et al.,

2020). Hence, I accept that Individuals pursuing more harmony between their ideas and their

faith community might convert to more accepting attitudes in religious organizations like the

ones above. The choice should be based on one's beliefs, convictions, and desire to belong in a

spiritually diverse and ever-changing world.
