The comparison between religion and humanity only arises when we consider religion as following a particular person or sect; whereas religion means nothing other than living based on a specific system of accountability, and essentially no one can be found who does not have religion. Even those who do not accept God or give importance to any religion still live according to a particular basis. Therefore, what matters is that we choose a better method for life and not be careless about the religion that determines our life’s orientation.

Of course, if the purpose of such a question is whether humanity and morality are more important than attachment to a particular doctrine and sect, certainly the answer is that we should consider morality and humanity more important; but we can be sure of our morality only if, in addition to things like kindness and affability, we also submit to important truths that we become aware of and do not ignore any truth. Therefore, even if we admit the possibility that the Creator of existence has considered a saving program for us and yet we are indifferent to it, we have committed the ugliest immorality and distanced ourselves from humanity.
