Question

essay on religious freedom.

Answer 1

“Religious freedom is the notion that people of religion can freely partake in the practices of their religion without opposition”. To me religious freedom is being able to have our opinions and speak our mind about our beliefs. Religion in general means a clear set of beliefs about a life that surpasses our current human experience. We also have religious freedom; it plays a very important part in our lives. Religious freedom is actually deeper, broader, and more important than most people realize. Religious freedom is the human right to think and act upon. Also, to express what one deeply believes in. Religious freedom allows us to speak our mind about our beliefs and practice what we believe in.

I am a catholic and very proud of it. Catholic to me means to practice the New Commandment and it means to follow in Jesus’ footstep as well as his holy ways. I myself: have three theological virtues: faith, hope, and love. Being Catholic above all means to love God completely. I have received Baptism, Reconciliation, Communion, and Confirmation.

After receiving every one of these sacraments I felt even closer to God then before. I feel so empowered and happy to be a part of my Catholic community. The importance of religious freedom is very important and helps us to be able to learn about our beliefs. Religions are society made and the group of followers called religious people. To achieve spiritual growth you don’t need any religion and to understand the spirituality and to grow yourself truly. You should look into all religion with an open mind that will help you understand about your religious freedom and its importance.
