Best philosophical approach to how religion affects daily life and us humans?

r/

I’m working on a scientific report about how religion affects daily life and us humans, and I’m considering approaching it from a phenomenological or existentialist perspective. However, I’m open to other philosophical currents that might be relevant.

I’m a beginner in these areas, so any recommendations for introductory books on phenomenology, existentialism, or other useful perspectives would be greatly appreciated. Which approach do you think would provide the best framework for this topic?

    A “scientific report” for…what? This is way, way too broad of a topic. Like, comically broad. Is this a paper for an undergrad class?
