Civil religion in a mechanism of faith

Ideas regarding God and human beings are familiar to all in civil religion in a mechanism of faith known as reification. One of the most prominent people to have devoted her life to civil religion is Eleanor Roosevelt. In different ways, she dedicated her life to civil religion, such as supporting civil rights, upholding ethnic values, networking with women, and dedicating her personal life.

Standard engagement.

According to J Williams T Young, the traditional cultures were preserved by Eleanor Roosevelt as the first lady. As a public figure and a voice of peace, she valued all of the ideals demanded from her. She led both her national life and her personal life. In the real world, many people of her class usually ignore most of the cultural traditions. Though individuals from the loyal family are not expected to welcome visitors, Eleanor Roosevelt would always welcome guests herself. 
In many cases, it is the people employed in the palace who make arrangements on about the king’s mode of life, but Eleanor Roosevelt lived a different life. She would choose her best types of entertainment in various social events, dinners, and reception (Youngs 203). JT Williams in her biography says “Eleanor Roosevelt, although she is the First Lady, she makes her choice of the various kinds of entertainment, at dinner, reception among other social events that expressed the diversity of the American popular culture. In one of the most famous acts is when she served hot dogs to Queen of England and inviting Choreographer Martha Graham’s troupe to perform a modern dance in the statehouse.“ 
Eleanor tradition dedication is also evidenced by the fact that she enjoyed serving tea for private callers. She also went beyond the tradition and greeted guests herself at the entrance door of the White House. In the current times, there may be few or no first ladies who cook for their husbands. Eleanor Roosevelt had an interest in the quality of food served to her husband. She enjoyed making a dish of ‘scrambled eggs on Sundays.’ And this shows that her dedication to making food for her husband. 
From Eleanor Roosevelt’s commitment to tradition can be emulated in today’s civil religion by people of high class or those living the public figure to abandon those classes and humble themselves.  As a first lady, she went beyond the limit and dedicated her tradition to the citizens of the United States thus exemplifying the civil religion. 
She advocated for civil rights.
According to J Williams T Young’s, Eleanor Roosevelt was dedicated to advocating civil rights and equality among the citizens of the state. She had an interest in the black American. She once helped a lady overcome her awkwardness and would often call her ”the closest friend in her age group.”
Eleanor Roosevelt believed that civil rights were the key test for American democracy. This shows that Eleanor Roosevelt had civil rights in her leadership. Civil rights test the role of the people by the people by the people and for the people. Eleanor Roosevelt advocated for civil religion by urging that there could be no democracy in United States that did not include democracy of blacks (George Brown Tindall and David E, Shi 55). She ensured that all people enjoyed democracy. All races have indiscriminate rights to some property. The basic rights that she advocated were; education, housing, and employment which the society needed. The today’s government should provide not only protection for discrimination but also develop policies that bring equality in the distribution of resources. 
Eleanor Roosevelt would push her husband who was the president to defend the integration of civil rights. She was accused of bringing war between the American and the blacks.
 She showed the importance of civil rights when she fought for the rights of black American in the United States. This shows that civil rights are an essential element and would be used as a litmus to test democracy. Democracy would then be advocated by equal distribution of resources which include; education, housing, and employment to all people regardless of race.
We should emulate Eleanor Roosevelt in our era by encouraging democracy for all through the civil rights advocacy. This will significantly promote the rule of the people, and in accordance, there will be an equal distribution of resources regarding employment education and housing. Upon the distribution, of the resources, the economic stability of an economy is likely to be boosted.
The basic civil right housing would ensure that every person or the citizen is well protected from external harm and their security is guaranteed. Employment would ensure that the economic life of a citizen is guaranteed and the economic stability of a country would also be boosted. Education, on the other hand, would ensure training and innovations which will make sure that every citizen is specialized in his way. Education would promote peaceful coexistence as many people from different ethnic diversity are brought together. 
Advocating for women empowerment
Eleanor Roosevelt was so much engaged in women empowerment programs. As an example, she was one of the professional women networking as an attorney, educator, union leader and a journalist. She worked closely with other women leaders to oversee that women empowerment was at its best (Youngs 278). Her aim was to integrate many qualified women in her administration and the federal government as well as in other top administrative posts. 
As a first lady, she was able to expand and include divisions that specifically dealt with the problem of unemployment among women. She highly supported the appointment of women to lead bureaus. Eleanor discovered that the youth empowerment programs only benefited men and she was successful in her capacity as the first lady sponsored conferences where she hosted several and specifically focused on meeting women needs. 
From Eleanor Roosevelt life, the government should support the first ladies to advocate for the empowerment of women by creating job opportunities and appointing them to the top posts of the government administration. Also, women should come out and defend their rights to prevent discrimination.
Women are an essential pillar towards the success of a country; they represent the majority gender in a state. Promoting the welfare of a woman would enable a country to achieve its long-term and short-term goals. Women election in the top administrative positions is one of the best ways to promote their welfare. 
Women should emulate Eleanor Roosevelt’s dedication by offering themselves to contest for these posts believed be for men. For example, in the recent times, we have seen women battling for the presidency and Hillary Clinton is a good example. The state should also not only give support to youths and vulnerable groups but also women to encourage diversity.
Dedicating her personal life
Eleanor had a special personal life dedication to the civil religion. William argues that despite Eleanor’s brother’s numerous divorces, she was never shattered and was never disappointed in their personal life. She committed her personal life to ensure their wellbeing. She could often travel to meet them and offer any moral support needed.
She was so friendly to people such that she would sit down and write letters to them. She in one time in her term admitted a woman to stay with her in the in White House.
Eleanor Roosevelt dedicated her personal life to helping and engaging in other people’s lives and some who were strangers (Reimers and Binder 15). In today’s era should emulate Eleanor Roosevelt by dedicating their lives to matters that bring change to other people lives. In this way, there will be a peaceful coexistence among citizens of a state.
Conclusion 
To sum up, the person who has recently played the Eleanor Roosevelt role is the former U.S President Barak Obama. Obama played the role of the State’s Chief Executive Officer, the role of a party leader as well as the head of state. As the chief executive, he refused to prosecute banker’s criminal behavior to protect the economy from deteriorating. As the party leader, he outlined and established unmoved relations with the Democrats on Capitol Hill. Also, Obama upon discovering the weaknesses of Hillary Clinton from the 2010 congressional losses and the midterm elections in 2014 he filed a case against her. As a head of state, Obama had a lot of grace, humor, class, to the government, in history no president had managed to articulate the aspirations of and the ideas another country as he did.
