Seriously, though, I think you've hit on something that is really problematic when it comes to defining religion. Are political views religious? What about the Yankees or the Red Sox? A lot of definitions given of religion would include things like these. But if we try to get too narrow, we end up excluding things that are generally considered religion. Even descriptive definitions are tricky, because you either include too much or leave out something vital. That's why I thought it would be an interesting question to pose... and I haven't been disappointed... anyone else?
