  This will help me be able to understand where other people get their beliefs, and how I can best interact with them.

  Severals:

  1. to understand other religions’ standpoint so to be able to respond properly and wisely

  2. to find a way to relate so in order to share the Gospel

  3. for comparisons to my own beliefs

  It helps us to better interact with people we come into contact with in our daily lives who have different beliefs than us. If we don’t have a basic understanding of their beliefs, then how can we understand each other?

  Religious faith is an all encompassing belief in something larger than ourselves; rituals, prayer, community belief, and gatherings. Individuals have a personal belief that is a part of larger community faith; using common resources to learn and grow from, such as the Bible.

  Religious faith is a belief in something bigger than ones self. I think of religion as a set of rules or structures around a person. In the case of Islam that person is Allah in Buddhism it is Buddha and Christianity-Christ. The faith part is faith in the person using the structure as a way to follow one’s faith or faith leader.
