Modern Religious Experience: Reflection Question #1

Modern Religious Experience: Reflection Question #1: "According to Mircea Eliade religion has 'not vanished without a trace; [it] has contributed toward making us what we are today and so, after..."

I agree with Mircea Eliade and the whole idea of how religion has not vanished without leaving a trace. Even though we don't depend on religion as much as people used to back in time, it still makes us who we are. Religion still influences us largely. I am a Hindu and all my great grandparents in other words ancestors have been Hindus. Religion has impacted me and made me the person I am today. I believe that there is one God who is watching us at all times, whether good or bad. I know that whatever happens in my life is not just a miracle but something God planned for me. I believe that my existence and presence on earth is because of God. So far, I have always considered God before I made any choices and pondered whether he would be pleased or not.
I believe that God has sent me to earth so that I can make the most use of my life by being a good citizen/human. I am scared and nervous whenever I make a decision but I know God is always there to guide me and support me. I value God and I know that I am here because of him. Though I am Hindu and my whole family is Hindu I believe that there is one almighty who is controlling everything thats happenning and created life. Though science and technology have taken a very vital role nowadays, religion was discovered earlier and makes us who we are today.
