True, but I'd like to consider religions on an individual scale instead that of an established organisation ordering its followers. Here I'm merely speaking in the sense of how a string of concept, a religion, can affect the way we think and act. It is the values that we adopt for our behaviour patterns. Philosophy does indeed define us, if we allow the definition as many allowed that of a religion.
It is, to the essence, a route of faith/logic to a route of logic/faith.
Organised religion is merely an excuse for dominance over others, be it through power or through help.
