Every body talk about his religion did ever you realize that to be good human is main guidance of every religion. If some body is able to be a good human and he/she is not following any religion what you say he/she is senor or religious person. According to me he is religious.

The definition of being a good human is different in every religion. For example, some people believe that they must kill other humans to please God. I would not consider this "good." I would say that if a person follows the teachings of a church, then he is religious, whether he is "bad" or "good".

Greetings vjypathania. Outside of Christ Himself, the definition of a good person is up for grabs. For example, Paul (Saul of Tarsus), thought he was a good person, thought he was a very good Jew, for persecuting Christians. Also, amongst religions, there is variation at times at what is a good person. The Holy Bible says no one is good, Rom. 3:10. It defines a good person as Christ. However, acting like Him does not make the grade either. Per Rev. 3:20, John 15 and more, He needs to be inside of us. Hope that helps!
