"Religion" is a system to induce people's behavior and make their livings worthy. Also it combines people as a moral community. There are some general properties of religion. First, it can be an object or symbol that people fear God. Secondly, people have ceremonies to fear God. Last of all, people regularly do the ceremonies in group to show their belief.
Before looking the religion with structural-functional and social-conflict view, there are some functions about religion. The personal function of the religion makes someone's life meaningful and shows the right way. Also, it can make people safe and calm psychologically. In addition, religion can give the answer about the fundamental problems. Furthermore, we can find the social function of the religion, too. The religion shows the common value and rules to integrate the community. Also, they control deviation and maintain the society. Moreover, it influence people's attitude, behavior, and more.
There are lots of ways to look the religion and from now on, let's look at the "religion" with Structural-Functional and Social-Conflict view.
Structural-Functional view the religion as a union. It makes people together in moral community. Also, religion makes each people sense of belonging and make their relationships tight. On the other hand, Social-Conflict view the religion as a means that makes the present situation reasonable. There could be something must be change in the society but by using the word "Religion", they are just stable.
I think religion is very powerful in this society. Also, it is one of the important thing that exist in this society. I was very interested that there were lots of ways to view the religion. lol
