Sikhism is a [[monotheistic]] religion, teaching that men and women are equal and that you do not have to be a Sikh to get to God.  Discipline and standing up for justice are also key aspects of Sikhism.  In order to even survive as a religion historically, Sikhs had to stand up for their beliefs and fight Islamic rulers who tried to convert them.  The religion also explains the importance of doing good actions rather than merely carrying out rituals in the name of religion, which is why Sikhs do not have many rituals in their religion.<ref>https://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/sikhism/</ref>
