Answer:

D. All of the above

Explanation:

Religion is a social institution based on the worship and belief in God/ gods. In the study of sociology, religion is viewed as a social institution that serves to perform various functions for the smooth functioning of society.  These include:

A. Provides an explanation for events that people don’t understand in society

Religion offers explanations for existential questions such as the meaning of life, life purpose, reincarnation, etc., that are not usually taught in schools or other social institutions.

B. Offers people social support

Being part of a religion or religious group usually involves regular attendance of a place of worship such a church, mosque, temple or synagogue, which can lead to the formation of new friendships and socialization opportunities.

C. Can be a source of social change

Religion can lead to social change by promoting good ethics and virtuous behavior. However, social change resulting from religion can also be negative if it leads to fanaticism, acts of terror and hate crimes.
