Abstract Religion, viewed by the structural functionalist was seen as the cement of society. The idea of religion, from its essence, is a contributor that maintains social structure which provides environmental sustainability among groups that exist within. This sustainability is seen from the aspects of relationship, sense of justice, social solidarity, welfare and happiness of the people within the environment.In this regard, the sense of moral stability is very essential as it will regulate various misconducts that have taken their toll on various aspects of human life within the society. This paper, therefore, looks at the issue of religion via Christianity, Islam and African Indigenous Religion as they regulate ethics for the basis of producing human transformation in the society. It also looks at the co- existence of the Yoruba people based on their religious ethics and judgment from the perspectives of the three religions.
