Does religion have an effect on the type of business to do?

[Immilash1]

As for me ,no
But there are many business that religion worth it ,such business include sports betting ,etc ,as the matter of fact religion worth anything that has to do with betting

Yes religious beliefs also play a role in the kind of business you do, though it depends on how serious the said persons believe in their religion. I know of someone who would never agree to sell acholic drinks. Even my self personally I won't go for such business or selling of cigarettes simply because of you my beliefs

 

[Immilash1]

Some religion advice there people who are in business not to sell bad products like hard drugs etc.
They advice them that;you should not involve in illegal business

 

[Bousine123]

Some actually do, but I don't think your religion or religious beliefs should stop you from going into a business venture if you know it's ethically ok.

 

[Queentener]

Though some people always allow religion to affect them while choosing some business but I don't think I can allow that. I will do whatever I am pleased with.

In as much as you have a clear conscience with the business you are starting, what others think doesn't matter, do you others will adjust.

 

[Alexandoy]

In the case of that woman who cannot sell products that are against her religion (like pork products, maybe) then she should turn her eyes on the products that her religion approves like beef products or even vegetables. It is not good to go against the religion with your business purpose.

 

[Psalmseen]

Yes of course. Religion is a deterninant on the type of business you do. If you're a Christian, you are not expected to involve yourself in the sales of some things such as alcohol, hard drugs such as marijuana among others

 

[Richard92]

There are so many people that their religion and personal beliefs are against them doing some kind of businesses and it is definitely not bad.

Most times to some people religion have some certain effect on their business like one who is a Muslim cannot have a beer parlor because of his or her religion believe.

 

[Senator]

Of course we all know that religion has an effect on the type of business that one does. Take for instance a typical Muslim. They are not allowed to rear pig neither are they allowed to eat it.

 

[Ruth]

Religion plays a crucial and sensitive role in the business world. As a Christian is prohibited to deal with drugs. And other religions don't really allowed their women out, so it could hinder their sales.

 

[Sotherefore]

There is nothing religious about a business, it is advisable for you to do a business that is legal in the country you are staying, it's possible that religious should be put into consideration a little bit when you are engaging into something.

 

[Snazzy001]

Religion affect a very vast variety of things and it is important to know that religion affects our life as a whole and business is also part of our life

 

[Pousinha]

Of course it has. A true christian (a true jew too) would never get involved in adult stuff business, pornography, nor any kind of sorcery and occultism. No humiliating or degrading stuff at all. About selling wine: it depends on the position of each one. Whoever claims christians (or jews) must be teetotaler, will be against selling wine. Whoever claims there is nothing bad to modestly/socially drink (in any way, never at the point to get drunk), would say there is nothing bad to sell small amounts of wine (as the Bible, in fact, only condemns addiction and drunkenness). About cigarettes: not good to sell them too: apart of being addictive and apart the health issues cigarettes cause, it's in fact burned money.

You will have to separate religion from business. You need to care about ethic and morality. You will have to abide the country's law but I do not think you should care about religion when you are doing a business.

 

[Abigael]

Yes, religion can be such a big effect and sometimes an hindrance to business. This is because some religious beliefs may prevent you from doing certain types of businesses.

 

[jeff87]

Yes, some times, religion affects the kind of business we do. Ethics of religion doesn't want us to promote the sales and consumption of some products such as a Christian selling alcohol and cigarettes. It might turn out to be a topic for the non Christians

That is right. I think there was a revival during the time of the evangelist Charles Finney that christian people will not taste alcoholic drinks.

 

[Pousinha]

You will have to separate religion from business. You need to care about ethic and morality. You will have to abide the country's law but I do not think you should care about religion when you are doing a business.

This isn't doable at all. If the business involves stuff that crushes against one's values, he/she actually forfeits them. There's no way. If a christian or a jew begins to sell adult stuff, for ex., it's actually apostasy for the sake of money, becoming greedy.

 

[Yusuf1]

Definitely. There are some business you can't engage into as a business person and it's really because of the fact that your religious frowns against it to the nearest minimum

 

[btaliat]

I don't let religion affect the kind of things I do. I put religion separately in every thing I do because I see religion as an opium of masses

 

[Richard92]

Of course, you are right. No religion will support selling illegal hard drugs. From the post, the needs of the people can't be illegal. According to my findings, she said she can't sell ponmo (cow skin). It was strange to me though

Yes most I'm religious I have effect of the kind of business you do abacus most people because of their religion they don't want to sell beers.
