If a man is a religion believer, does it mean he is a trustworthy man? I just want to figure out the connection between a man's behavior and his belief. Does they equal to each other? Some of my friends tell me that religion beliefs provide an ethical support for living, not necessarily a behavior prediction of their daily lives. And, for some people, religion is religion, and real life is real life. So, even if a man tells me he is a religion believer, I still should not consider him as a 100% trustworthy man?

If a man is a religious believer, does it mean he is a trustworthy man?

I just want to figure out the connection between a man's behavior and his belief.
Does they equal to each other? ("Are the equivalent?")
Some of my friends tell me that religious beliefs provide an ethical support for living, but are not necessarily a behavior prediction of their daily lives. (a prediction of their behavior in their daily lives)  And, for some people, religion is religion, and real life is real life.
So, even if a man tells me he is a religious believer, I still should not consider him as a 100% trustworthy man?

 

Great job Heather!  I corrected the grammar, then added an alternative way that I might say it in spots where it didn't feel natural.

Good topic! I think if you wanted something to talk about, you will never lack for conversation with such a difficult question. I think, at least in America, religion is sometimes used as a shield so that people don't look too closely at personal actions and character. There is a stereotype in America of a person that attends church and aligns themselves with a set of morals on Sunday, then for the rest of the week that person does whatever they want. It's common for non-religious people to refer to religious people as hypocrites.
