Religion is an integral part of the life of most people. But some teachings not only baffle common sense, but also raise the question of whether their followers really take their faith seriously.
Jainism - caring for the living
Followers of Jainism preach no harm to all living organisms. Jains are not only vegetarians and do not wear skin and fur, but also try not to kill even insects. To do this, they always take a whisk in order to clear the path from small living creatures in front of them. Jains also preach chastity and renunciation of personal property. In this religion, there are many gods and divine beings that are found among people. In the case of pious conduct, the Jain joins them.
Jainism originated in India, in the 9-11 century BC.
Raelian movement
This unusual teaching was founded by Claude Vorillon in the 1970s. Vorillon claimed to have had contact with UFOs. The aliens explained to him the meaning of human existence and declared Claude a prophet. The man took the name Rael, which, according to him, meant "savior" in the language of aliens. The essence of Raelianism came down to the achievement of sensual pleasure and the propaganda of cloning, through which the Raelians sought to achieve immortality.
Religion of Prince Philip
Prince Philip is the husband of Queen Elizabeth II, who now rules in Britain. By and large, his social activities always came down to escorting the crowned spouse. However, the inhabitants of the Pacific tribe of Jaonanen think differently. For more than half a century, they believe that Philip is the son of the spirit of the mountain, the revered deity of the island. The natives worship the portraits of the prince and pray to him. This religion was born quite simply - Elizabeth and Philip visited the islanders after the Second World War and brought a lot of food, clothing and hygiene items. The couple was perceived as good deities descending from distant mountains.
Doomsday Wave Laboratory
This teaching calls the cause of all misfortunes mobile phones and the spread of radio communications. Oddly enough, religion appeared in Japan - one of the most technologically advanced countries. Its author was Yuko Tino. She encouraged everyone to wear white clothing to avoid radio waves, and ride white cars with shields. The culprits of the propagation of electromagnetic waves are called communists, who allegedly settled around the world after the collapse of the USSR.
Followers of the Doomsday Wave Laboratory travel through sparsely populated villages and measure the level of radio waves there to choose the safest place to live.
