Abstract: In this scientific work which is called "Role of religion in the improvement of the economy" in the center of discussion will be the elements that shows a clear connection between economic elements with religion and the interdependence of these two areas in reality for who many people’s might say that they have nothing in common. The first part presents just such a reference and this is work that is imminent to man. Working in the Social Doctrine of the Church is a reality inherent to the man as a master, producer and a manager, what makes human being similar to the God. Thus properly managing comes in direct dependence on natural law and transcendental reality that is inherent to religion. In the second part of this paper we will discuss the issue of representation of the Christian principles of waste man entrusted givens. From everyday experience we conclude that sometimes economic activities are not in accordance with natural law making occurs hunger for profit and other phenomena that do not lead to the progress of society or to the common good. In the third and last part of the article , we will try to reflect and bring at least part of the reality in which as a result of transgressing the fundamental moral principles and natural law reveal to the naturally irresponsible management. The main purpose is to warm mankind to the causal relationship between energy and technological progress coupled with irresponsible management of resources leads to damaging the biosphere and disturbing picture of reality that is alarming, to the pressing need for change.
