Highlighting the dark sides of religions easily prove that religion(s) is the source of evil. But we should also have to consider the contribution of the religions to building the civilizations and human dignity. It is true in the realms of religions there are/were many non religious group/persons who are doing and did many strange things including genocide to capturing others homeland. The most negative attributes ( not original ) of the conventional religions are -

· Intolerance : the hatred and persecution of people of different beliefs, even to the point of killing them.
· Obscurantism: opposing intellectual, artistic and scientific advances.
· Authoritarism : opposing intellectual artistic, social and political freedom
· Dogmatism: arrogant, stubborn assertion that what one believes is true.
· Narrowness : the view that only the members of a particular group will be saved while the rest of humanity is demand.
· Hypocrisy : preaching ethics while behaving in an antithetical manner.

After reading the above brief if we ask our self ``Are these religions` adjectives ?``, I don`t know your answer, but my answer is `NO`. By the name religion if nonreligious person/group do consciously or unconsciously any controversial activity(ies), I think it should not claim the religions itself, as we can`t claim the science when scientist make atom bomb like destructive weapons.

About the religions we can get a positive answer, if we go back in the root, and analysis the origin and purpose of religions. The word `religion` it self come form the Latin word `religere` meaning `to rebind` implying that although man is connected to God by creation, he has to bind himself back to God by his own choice. ( Although most people think religion always has something to do with God, Buddhism is the religion that does not believe in God.). As I understand, the main purpose of the religion is to establish : eternal ( God`s ) joy and happiness through the practice of true love. God (Universal Parent) become happy ( internally our original self ) when His children become responsible – citizen, husband-wife and parents in the family as well as responsible leader of society. When Heavenly Parent sees His children as a responsible His sufferings eliminate and human being enjoy eternal joy from absolute relationship. In this enjoyable circumstances I am sure we never can never deny the religion or can not blame as a source of evil. To resolve the blames against religions need to establish and practice the `The New Truth` which is the unique combination of science and religions, external and internal, physical and spiritual, visible and invisible.

However, by born we are religious, everybody has and inherit own and/or traditional religions by which way everybody going forward as their best. ` WE ARE HUMAN BEING, OUR RELIGION IS HUMINITY`. If we said religion is the source of evil, we can`t justify our position and dignity of existence also. I don`t like to consider the conventional religions as complete religion. In Old Testament era and New Testament era the life and societies were considerably governed on the basis of traditional religions, but now in this Complete Testament era advancing by Science and personal practices. Although science has established its higher-level success but not it also complete truth. Science represents only the visible part i.e. body of truth; and religion represents the mind of truth. Without mind/spirit the truth never can be completed. So there must need the establishment of complete truth through the unity of mind and body, religions and science.

This is the proper time to make ourselves as `religious more than religious` who don’t have religious identity ( just have one identity as a Children of God ) by practicing true love ( unconditional/ selfless love by practicing the universal parental serving and take caring others with responsibilities ) in personal life, in our family life and our societal life. In order to overcome the regions` evil tracks, I think it will be effective to promote the new terminology and original essence including God/ Allah .. I feel easy to address God as `Universal Parent`. If we really believe and practice on region(s), we must practice the universal family values considering all being especially human being as member of Global Family as like as our physical family members.

Everybody has desire and is working so hard to be happy by establishment of peace and harmony as well as human rights in the levels of lives as original desire. But we can not be doing because of conflicts ( we face conflict as we don`t have clear idea about evil and goodness, and about our position in which side ) between mind and body which extends from individual life to societal life along with family conflict; that most of case influence to national conflict and worldwide conflict by leaders` characters and decisions ( religious conflicts, political conflicts, tribal conflicts ). The conflict can be resolved only when we will be able to find a `common centre` (religions explain it as God centre). The concept about God also contaminated, as we explains and understand God in different way, some case partially, some case mistreated (based on self centre view point or own community traditions, not from universal view point). To find the common centre based on God`s love (universal true love ) the unity of religions as well as all moral and ethical ideologies is essentially required. This consciousness must need to raise that our seed is same, our source is same and our destination also same, just different our thinking and way.`
