Are religion and depression related? I can only speak from my own experience (which is Christianity). In Christianity, the whole premise is that you're a sinner deserving of hell but saved by the grace of god who sacrificed his only son blah, blah...you guys know the story.
So does religion that approaches the individual from the perspective of being a sinner from birth cause depression? Highly likely.
Can't speak for any other religions.
