I don't think there are such mystical things as 'religions' out there - I just think that there are teachings. Some come from women and men that pretend to be the source of creation, some come from women and men that admit they are human and I also see that some do indeed come from the source of creation. I don't discount any of them.
I think that everyone has a set of beliefs, a world view, set of practices and a sense that some things are if the utmost importance - I don't think their is a benefit in valuing some people less than others or that there is some kind of fundamental difference between someone 'religious' and someone who is not.
If you are into philosophy then look for a Wittgensteinian definition of religion (post-positivism)!
