The special role of religion in the modern world
Abstract
Religion is a phenomenon that conquers people's hearts. One believes in God without asking questions, without any proof and refutation. Consequently, the state uses religion as a tool of influence on its citizens and as a political tool for achieving certain goals. In the 21 century religious conflicts are considered to be an extremely pressing issue due to the exacerbation of interreligious (Islam-Christianity) as well as inter-confessional relations (confrontation between representatives of different sects within the religion). Religious disputes are one of the most common sources of political instability.
