We live in a very big country, Nigeria. Our country occupies a large land space and there are millions of people in it. The people have different views, beliefs and ways of life. As a result, their religious beliefs are also different. Some people in the country believe in one God, his son Jesus Christ and in the Holy Ghost,these people are called the Christians. They read the Holy Bible and worship God in the church.
Some other people believe in one God called Allah, and in His prophet called Mohammed. They read the Holy Quran and worship Allah in the mosque. They are called Muslims.
There is yet a third group in the country. Members of this group believe in gods and goddesses and in an Almighty God. They believe in the African traditional religion. Since all of us in the three groups have to live together in the same country, we should not condemn the religion of other people, rather we should respect each other's religious beliefs. There are many other reasons why we should tolerate other people's religious beliefs.
Most of us believe in one God. We depend on one another as human beings for our needs and services at home, in the school and in the community. All religious preach obedience to God's law, the laws of land, the rules and regulations of the community.
