Undoubtably, education is immensely important. Wh have religion to give us a hope and believe in something of a higher power than us. Although, some societies indoctrination has caused children to hold certain religious believes. For example, Christianity builds respect for you elders. But Islam in Iran on the other hand, is the legal age for nine year old girls to get married. From then on they are required to mature, and meet all of these requirements. We can say that we force ourself to grow up faster, but really its just the difference in teaching. “Religion emphasizes moral codes designed to instill values such as self-control and social competence,” said Dr. John Bartkowski, professor of sociology at UTSA. Religion statistically makes you smarter and more mature as you understand things other non-religious students are unable to interpret.
