Religion, reason can go hand in hand


RELIGION is one of the most potent forces of human civilisation. It satisfies our innermost needs and reflects our deepest yearnings. Nearly 84% of the world’s population claims adherence to some faith or the other.

Whether this faith is used as a force for good or for evil is, of course, another matter. Much depends on how adherents use or misuse their religion.
