Assalamu Alaykum. My name is Yahya and I am inshallah a Muslim. Today I was having a talk with 2 of my friends (non-muslims) in school. They both believe that there is a GOD. One of them follow Christianity, The Other one just believe in GOD but doesn't follow an organized religion. He asked me this question "Why should someone follow an organized Religion?". I felt that I couldn't properly answer his question so I'm seeking some help. I'm not an expert in debating about religion. But he asked me why I follow Islam and I said because I chose to because I believe in GOD, God's prophets and his messages. He believes that I never think outside "the box" and I'm just stuck with being a muslim because I was born a Muslim. Please help me out on how I can best answer his question "Why should someone follow an organized Religion?
