dc.description.abstractReligion is a very widespread significant social and cultural force in the life human beings. From the beginning of history human beings have found themselves submitting to some unknown powers. Rituals, sacrifices, cerememonies, singing and dancing were some of the expressions of this submission. Religion has been acclaimed by sociologists and even by anthropologists to be unique in influencing and moulding man/woman and society. Even today religion is one of the most powerful force in society. The growth of science and technology is found to produce far reaching changes in attitudes and habits of people and to transform our social institutions - religion for most among them. Today science is all important, industrial progress is all that matters. To a large extent religion has ceased to influence the private lives of the individual. M a result religion seems to have lost its hold on many young men and women who come out of our educational edifices(institutions). Though Kenya has been the nursery for religious, yet under the impact of science, materialism, and the new media culture it appears to be on the down hill. Though the spirit of secularist and materialistic culture is all pervasive, the 'seeking minds' are still in need of answers for many fundamental questions about life. Religion is absolutely essential to the individual for his personality development. A great part of the culture of humanity and most of the traditional values which constitute influence on human conduct have been shaped by religion. Even to this day religion is one of the most powerful forces in society. Religious behavior has made great impact in terms of social, economic and political development. Presently religion has become one of the most important sources of mental health. It also helps in changing the attitude towards self and society. Hence, religious faith has become much more imperative in the present world. Before proceeding, in this work traditional footnote system is not used instead parenthetical note system is used.
