Find a word related to R E L I G I O N

The idea is to find an English word (synonym or antonym related to the word – R E L I G I O N (sustantivo) and then write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word.

Or an unusual use of the word.

Example:

She followed the instructions religiously.

Siguió las instrucciones religiosamente.

Pictures are a good idea.

This link might help you find some ideas.

We have no official corrector for this challenge yet.

I think I can manage to be the corrector for the English. smile?

Please encourage everyone by voting for them and me. wink

This was the previous challenge.

Cult/Culto

En España se clasifica la Cienciología como un religión y en Francia como un culto - suelo tratar de no estar de acuerdo con los franceses, pero de vez en cuando tengo que hacer una excepción.

In Spain Scientology is classified as a religion, and in France as a cult - I usually try not to be in agreement with the French, but every once in a while I have to make an exception.

Around the world many people spend Christmas Day in prayer and thanksgiving. Others just open their presents and drink their eggnog.

En todo el mundo muchas personas pasan el día de Navidad en la oración y acción de gracias. Otros sólo abren sus regalos y beben su rompope.

El judaísmo es el fundamento del cristianismo. Los dos creen en los profetas, tales como Moisés, Ezequiel, Isaías, El Rey David, y otros. Los judios también creen en Jesucristo hasta cierto punto, que es otro profeta, pero no lo aceptan como el Salvador del mundo. Pero sí hay unos judíos que lo adoran como Mesías (Moshíach en hebreo). A éstos se les da el nombre de "Judios Mesiánicos."

Judaism is the foundation of Christianity. Both believe in the prophets, such as Moses, Ezekiel, Isaiah, King David, and others. Jews also believe in Jesus Christ up to a certain point, that He is another prophet, but do not accept Him as the Savior of the World. But there are some Jews who do worship him as Messiah (Moshiach in Hebrew).These have been the name of "Messianic Jews."

teología : theology

Creo que teología crea muchos problemas porque cada religión, credo, secta o denominación tiene teorías diferentes, y esto causa desacuerdos. En el pasado ha habido guerras por la teología. Creo que la religión debería ser cerca comportamiento, no teorías.

I think that theology creates many problems because each religion, creed, sect or denomination has different theories and this causes disagreements. In the past there have been wars over theology. I think that religion should be about behaviour, not theories.

Agreed amiga - the different "organised" religions create division in my opinion. - ian-hill, Dec 21, 2014
I agree wholeheartedly. - rac1, Dec 21, 2014
Yes, what people call religion is often sectarianism, and the conflicts between branches of the same 'religion' are often the greatest. Catholic/Protestant in Ireland, Sunni/Shia in the middle east, and numerous sub-groups within them. - jennysk, Dec 22, 2014

La fé = Faith. To trust in someone = confiar en alguien

Cuando confiemos en el Dios de Abraham, Isaac, y Jacob y su hijo, Jesucristo nuestro salvador, podamos tener confianza que él nos oiga (o oye?) y nos ayude (o ayuda?) porque "sin fe es imposible agradar a Dios.

Basado en 1 Juan Ch 5 v 14 y Hebreos C 11 v 6

When we trust (put our trust) in the God of Abraham , Isaac and Jacob and his son Jesus Christ our saviour, we can be sure (confident) that he will hear us and help us for without faith it is impossible to please God.

Based on 1 John Ch 5 v 14 and Hebrews Ch 11 vs 6

La fidelidad, la caridad, la creencia, rezos, la bondad y la verdad son ideas que crecen de la religion.

Fidelity, charity, belief, prayers, goodness and truth are ideas that grow out of religion.

I don´t belong to any religion because I don´t believe in fairy tales or superstitions although a religion can be a philosophy or at worst create ignorance.

No pertenezco a ninguna religión porque no creo en los cuentos de niños ni las supersticiones aunque una religión bien puede ser una filosofía o al peor crear ignorancia.
