“Religion must indeed be reckoned among the matters of highest importance to the state, for when religion is ruined, the constitution follows.”
— Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Simplified Meaning:
When people lose their belief in religion, it can also weaken the rules and laws that keep a country stable. Think of religion like the foundation of a house. If the foundation falls apart, the entire house can collapse. For example, in history, many societies relied on shared religious beliefs to create laws and build trust among people. If everyone stops believing, there's less respect for those laws and traditions, and things can start to fall apart. So, keeping religion strong can help maintain order and unity within a country.
