What is your definition of Religion then?


I know this will create a big thread so I renamed it to match...

Doesn't an Order follow certain Beliefs, Thoughts, and Rules?

One of dictionary.com's definitions is.


re*lig*ion (r <<...OLE_Obj...>> -l <<...OLE_Obj...>> j <<...OLE_Obj...>>  
<<...OLE_Obj...>> n) 
n. Abbr. rel., relig. 
1)      Belief in and reverence for a supernatural power or powers regarded
as creator and governor of the universe. 
        a)      A personal or institutionalized system grounded in such
belief and worship. 
        b)      The life or condition of a person in a religious order. 
2)      A set of beliefs, values, and practices based on the teachings of a
spiritual leader. 
3)      A cause, a principle, or an activity pursued with zeal or
conscientious devotion. 

Hmmmm, Does this also mean that ColdFusion has become a religion for some of
us?

That also means whatever your Cause, Principle, Activity pursued with ZEAL
or Conscientious Devotion...

is your religion.

wow we have a lot of Religious Sports Fans...
