关于宗教的(RELIGION)的英文定义from WIKI

A religion is a set of common beliefs and practices generally held by a group of people, often codified as prayer, ritual, and religious law. Religion also encompasses ancestral or cultural traditions, writings, history, and mythology, as well as personal faith and mystic experience. The term "religion" refers to both the personal practices related to communal faith and to group rituals and communication stemming from shared conviction.


从这个广义的定义来说，孔夫子的儒，也算是宗教
和印度教来比，算是有可比性吧

• 我觉得儒教更像一种信仰哲学，而不是宗教 -泼点冷水吧- ♀ (342 bytes) () 07/24/2007 postreply 14:21:43
