Personal evidence is enough. Religious knowledge is very subjective, thus the person in ok charge of determining whether they believe or not in something, and the evidences taken into account to determine our faith must only be enough for us, since it is really hard to apply them for everyone.

Religion throughout the existence has tried to provide knowledge and explain the unexplainable. It has been something that people preached, believed so that they would feel less “clueless”, so that they could understand the changes in nature, the different actions of people etc.

In Islam specifically, the order and nature of the universe is evidence for the existence of a creator -- This is the idea of, what we define as the laws of physics must have a causality that led to its function and this need for a causality relates to the existence of a higher power. When thinking about Buddhism as well, the evidence for the existence of rebirth is that there is no disproof for rebirth -- without disproving the theory, it may still remain.

Religion is largely based of belief, not knowledge. To believe in something, you do not know if it is true or false but based on your experience, you are able to make a choice to follow and believe it. On the other hand, to have evidence means to know. So while we don’t know for certain things about religion, we believe in them as a choice.

culture and religion in the construction of our identity

# data[].attributes.body
culture and religion are one of the things that we as humans are born with, which helps build who we are as a person. where we are born and what our parent's traditions dictate what our culture is and as kids we are constantly surrounded by this. religion similarly is also passed down from our parents as usually what they believe becomes what we believe but we can choose what to believe in religion as we get older.
they play a big role in our identity as it is one of the starting parts of our life but also we choose how important that is to us and how that fits into our identity

# data[].attributes.body
I personally believe there are different types of evidence that surround the subject Religion. There is physical and textual evidence such as temples and the bible. But there can also be spiritual evidence this can be a connection/experience. Any of these example can have a powerful affect on peoples values and beliefs, affecting the knowledge and outlook on certain Religions

# data[].attributes.body
Religion gives us core values and beliefs, allowing us to anchor our knowledge. Whatever knowledge we gain from whatever source will fit into our minds in a way that makes sense, and usually, it will relate to religion. Religion also gives us answers to things we don’t understand. As humans, we seek knowledge and understanding in a way that makes sense; for many, that answer is religion.

# data[].attributes.body
Knowledge about a religion comes from what the people who believe in the religion see to be of that religion. Sometimes these are not supported by physical evidence, and could be things passed on through generation. Despite of this, knowing about them still counts as knowing about the religion.

# data[].attributes.body
Religion allows for people to have answers to questions that maybe science can’t answer. It allows for people to be hopeful and can help with having a peace of mind. This is because when the unexplainable occurs and people need answers, turning to religion can give those answers to some.

Religious knowledge is a matter of faith and can very from individual to individual. Thus, providing physical evidence can be difficult as it is a matter of your internal beliefs and so it is easier to provide evidence in regards to how your individual life has been positively impacted by a religion.

We are all born with some kind of aspect of religion within us, whether our family is religious or not.

Islam as a religion believes in the unseen. This means that while they may not know if something is truly there, they use these principles to hold their values close to their actions. This ‘imagination’ allows then to follow the pillars of Islam and pillars of faith to create a culture of compassion and tolerance.

I wouldn't say it's the 'point' if knowledge. Some people don't need a purpose to get through life. some people just live and don't have an end goal. Knowledge can help understand an individuals purpose in life, but its not the 'point' of knowledge.

Religion provides us with a concrete set of values and beliefs. It acts as a guide to providing knowledge on certain matters which science is unable to prove. By doing so, religion is able to provide answers to topics which we otherwise would be left in the dark about -- this can be comforting to people.

Religion and culture are intertwined, as throughout the years of the religions existence, it has most likely been faced with some culture, and it being mixed with the religion.

Faith may be the main way of knowledge among religions, since it states a relation of trust between the person and the belief.  It allows the believer to have certainty of some matters that cannot be achieve though any other method. For example believing in God is a act of faith, it is the pathway that contributes to the way a person will eventually live and act. Sometimes in faith we lack the common evidences we would expect, but it is okay while it is enough for the person.

In some sense, religion is imaginative. While It has not been disproven, it has not been proven so it requires some imagination to feel it’s true. Usually, religions have reasoning for all of their actions, some ritual, or action will ultimately benefit those who practice it. When those benefit, it continues the belief the action will have some form of positive impact, allowing it to be classed as ‘religious knowledge.

religion in most ways is not about the concrete proof of its existence rather it is about the belief in the religion, belief in the explanations given by their religious texts and scriptures. their role is to let people believe truly in the religion, putting in time and effort to ultimately create and spread this new found knowledge

I feel as if the answer to this question could be "yes and no". Knowledge can help us shape who we are and give people a 'purpose' in life but Knowledge can be subjective, some people might consider knowledge to be different things, some people might not desire to have a meaning of their life. Making the point of knowledge remain uncertain.

When practicing a religion or being part of a culture, one is undoubtedly exposed to the set of values and beliefs which the religion/culture holds. This, in hand, can shape one's belief system and shape what they might regard as important in their lives.

Religion and culture have large roles in the construction of our identity. Our beliefs are what makes us who we are and at the centre of all religion is belief.  What we believe in affects how we act and is it not our actions that make us who we are? How each person responds differently in a situation defines them as an individual. Culture in the same sense, allows us to have core beliefs. Religion and culture also allow us to have similar beliefs to others allowing us to relate and feel connected. This is important for our Identity as it also shapes how we react and respond.

PRODUCING MEANING AND PURPOSE IS NOT ENTIRELY THE POINT OF KNOWLEDGE. Some people might gain knowledge because they would like to, even though those knowledge might not necessarily be impactful and helpful.

The role of religion and culture in the construction of our identity is to provide purpose and give significant meaning beyond daily activities to an individual's life. Religion shapes the culture of nations and therefore will influence a community's moral beliefs and values, and consequently impact the individual's sense of identity. For example in Buddhism, there is a belief in 'karma' – essentially what goes around, comes around. Through the concept of karma, there is a focus on acting less on self-interest and more in the service of others. This shapes the individuals attitudes and values, therefore playing a role in the construction of their identity.

Religion can provide us with ways to be more optimistic in life.

In all of the workshops we attended today, the different religions had at their core a set of values that that religion was specific too. But they were all ways for people to reflect on themselves and make positive impacts in their lives. There doesn’t need to be physical or evidence (for example in Islam one of the fundamental beliefs is “believe in the unseen”) but perhaps personal evidence for someone to produce religious knowledge  and inspire others with those core values.

# data[].attributes.body
Faith plays a big role in religion as most values that different religions follow can neither be proven nor disproven and so, whether you believe it or not is a matter of your faith.

# data[].attributes.body
Faith in the existence of a higher power is central to the production of religious knowledge. One only has to look outside to see life's complexity in full display, with leaves on the very same branch differing from one another in innumerable, miniscule ways. Religious like Sikhism espouse that we will never be able to understand the natural world's phenomena fully, and imagine that there is a God - a Creator - ordaining it all. (The term imagination, it can be argued, diminishes the dignity lent to such beliefs by consigning them to the realm of the 'unreal'. But I digress.) Faith explains the beauty we witness on the daily precisely by deeming it unexplainable.

The evidence as explained during the Islamic session was that things cannot be created by themselves. Did the universe create itself? Did man create the sky or the earth? These are questions that have been asked in the holy book, The Quran. Instead, they believe in the unseen. They believe in Allah, Prophet Muhammad, angels etc despite never having seen them with their own eyes. They look to the writings of the Quran and the two pillars of Islamic faith for their evidence and knowledge.

The point of knowledge is to gain more understanding and insight into the complex world around us. However meaning, can only be self-defined. People can have the same knowledge, however, how we react and use that knowledge allows us to have a purpose and meaning in our lives.  Knowledge is linked directly to understanding; however, understanding is not a purpose. One could interpret knowledge, and then discover their ultimate purpose is to bestow knowledge upon others however the knowledge itself is not the purpose of our lives.

The role of religion and culture in identity:

The religion that one resonates in or believes in plays a huge role in their identity. Religion is specific to what a person is faithful to (a Hindu person is faithful to Hinduism or the Hindu gods...). For instance, it could determine and/or influence factors like morals, beliefs, actions, ethics, and day-to-day activities. All of these constructs a person's identity. Therefore religion and culture play a large role in constructing identity.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel the point of knowledge is subjective to everybody's individual lives. For some people, knowledge about religion allows them to find a purpose and a way to reach divine happiness, as they learn about new traditions and values. However, for some, knowledge about this may not spark any new beliefs within them, therefore adding no additional purpose to their lives. In terms of religion, anybody who is part of a religious community will look towards the knowledge of their religion as one with a great purpose and one which can have a significant impact on their lives -- yet, this isn't true for everyone.

# data[].attributes.body
Religion gives us the knowledge to explain our world, give meaning to our lives, and establish connections to others. It can shape our value systems and allow us to believe in something which we pursue as our ultimate goal. It can also provide explanations to things that science is unable to explain, such as the creation of mind, the concept of mind and the existence of the afterlife. The knowledge in Jainism provides individuals with a pathway to self-liberation. There is a saying in Islam that “You can’t love until you know,” which signifies that the knowledge of the faith is the precondition for us to truly love people around us. Buddhism, through the Four Noble Truths, gives us the knowledge that rationalises suffering in our lives and leads to greater happiness.

There is always some sort of evidence, can be from an artifact or a person, however these kinds of evidence are not the same as the evidence one would collect in science. This is shown in the Bahá'i Faith, which is a very new religion. This religion came off the belief that there is only one god, one religion and one human family. Bahá'i is a religion who are aware or believe that there is a creator of some sort, however are trying to grasp an understanding of this creator. The people of this religion follow text written by Bahá'u'lláh, therefore this is some sort of evidence to prove why they believe what they believe. However the evidence to prove there is one creator, which is what the text of Bahá'u'lláh says, there is a lack of evidence into proving their texts and statements.

There are seven types of knowledge: Explicit, implicit, tacit, procedural, declarative, a posteriori(independent of experience), and a priori(based on experience). What we can learn from religion is a prior, implicit, and declarative, as the scriptures usually do not state why. However, there can be explicit knowledge like "there are 48,000 microscopic creatures in the water" in Buddhism.

# data[].attributes.body
I wouldn’t say the “point” of knowledge is to produce meaning or purpose in our lives, I feel like acquiring knowledge (whether it be religious or personal exploration) can be a tool to help facilitate reflection that makes us find the meaning in our own lives

When we participate in Religions and Cultures, we gain a community of people who share similar beliefs and views. Thus providing us with a safe space to embrace and be who we truly are. Communities, as we know, are sources for the exchange of knowledge which in turn shapes our opinions and therefore help shape our Identity.
For example, In Judaism, Jews encourage debates and arguments of different points of view. They encourage questions and respect others' opinions. These methods help develop individuality and personal judgements, hence giving one a sense of self and personality. These debates create shared experiences, bridging the gap between individuals and giving them a sense of community.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think that it is entirely the point, as people may want to find a meaning to why they do everything. But knowledge can also be acquired due to curiosity, someone that wishes to understand why everything is how it is but not to try and fulfil purpose or give meaning to them.

# data[].attributes.body
religion and culture can have many different outcomes in the construction of our identity. this is because the religions around the world teach many different positive things, for example, spreading love, doing good deeds, thinking positively when praying etc. religion and culture teach us about where we truly belong and can shape our identity as it can provide us with a solid understanding of our world while teaching us many important values which can has many beneficial effects on the world.

# data[].attributes.body
Religion shapes us and creates morals, values and beliefs; knowledge that can be used to live a more fulfilling and happy life. In many religions there are rules or guidelines that one should follow, such as Judaism (with its 613 rules), which help us guide and shape our ethics and beliefs. By following these, a person may gain a clearer understanding of their own values, while having a set goal to achieve or maintain.

# data[].attributes.body
Religion provides a form of spiritual knowledge, another way of interpreting the world. it may answer questions and give you an answer of how you may live you life to gain fulfillment. Religions not based on a deity, tend to focus on the mind and a deep spiritual understanding of yourself.

Religions gives guidance, through the form of rules and restrictions, on how to lead a healthy and happy life. In the Taoism, the concept of treating others how you want to be treated is discussed. In Buddhism, the concept of karma, and the consequences of harmful actions is discussed. In Islam. restrictions are set on drinking and eating to ensure that people are happy and aren't idle. Hence, regardless of the religion, the teachers of all are supposed to provide knowledge the knowledge required to sustain a healthy and happy life for us and others.

Religion gives us the knowledge or the understanding of why we chose to do the things we do. It can give us a purpose in life thus religion can be a redirection in people's lives and help them make the choices they decide to take. For example, Buddhism shares the knowledge of human life being full of suffering, thus it is believed that doing good for everyone can secure a better way of life for an individual. On the other hand, in Islamic religion, the truth of the religion comprises of aspects of individuals questions about purpose of existence, creation and life, which in the case of Islam is God/ “Allah”. This knowledge is shared amongst people who practise the religion and it can give them guidance, self-development and a perspective in life.

Religion often gives us the knowledge on ways to become good and better individuals in order to help others. For example, in Sikhism, the 3 pillars are based off of trying to make all humans equal by lowering the egos of those who are more fortunate, and sharing profits (which could be money, time, knowledge) with those who are less fortunate. Similarly in Zoroastrianism, the religion prompts people to always think good thoughts, do good deeds, and say good words. These religions all require those who practice the religion to acquire knowledge on how to improve themselves as individuals in order to then help others and lead a better present life.

Belief is not as blind as we think it is as there is always some kind of reasoning to it, external influences, internal influences or observation.
