In the world of religions, basically two types of beliefs exist equally with some
differences in (1) the existence of God (2) the concept of messengers of God. The
result of these two beliefs is that this universe has been created by God and after
creating it, it has not become unrelated to Inat, but the system of Inat is being run
by Him. He has taught human beings to distinguish between good and evil and
placed this consciousness in the self which is called nature. Moreover, some
practical patterns came from God according to which humans should live their
lives. Except for a few religions, all the major religions also have the concept of
the afterlife, according to which there is heaven for those who do good deeds and
hell for those who do bad deeds. Apart from these general beliefs about religion,
there is another way of thinking which is called atheism, secularism, liberalism,
secularism or communism. Atheism is actually not a religion but a way of
thinking that is related to not believing in God, Prophethood and the Hereafter.
Those who belong to atheism are called atheists. According to them, God does
not exist. Therefore, according to atheists, religion does not have any divine
reality, but is the result of man's own thinking.
