“The religion that is afraid of science dishonors God and commits suicide.”
Emerson

Religion Class

The English word "religion" is derived from the Middle English "religioun" which came from the Old French "religion." It may have been originally derived from the Latin word "religo" which means "good faith," "ritual," and other similar meanings. Or it may have come from the Latin "religăre" which means "to tie fast." Defining the word "religion" is fraught with difficulty. Many attempts have been made. Most seem to focus on too narrowly only a few aspects of religion; they tend to exclude those religions that do not fit well. As Kile Jones wrote in his essay on defining religion... Source: Religious Tolerance
"Religion is the adherence to codified beliefs and rituals that (generally) involve a faith in a spiritual nature and a study of inherited ancestral traditions, knowledge and wisdom related to understanding human life. The term "religion" refers to both the personal practices related to faith as well as to the larger shared systems of belief." Source: Wikipedia

Levels of Classification of Faith Groups
This document describes the terms and levels of classification useful in classifying faith groups taxonomically. The basis for this classification is "what groups are a subset of what other groups." Answering this question results in a branching hierarchy. There are other types of classification, based on such criteria as the size of a group, level of social acceptability, level of political power, theology, number and nature of deity, history, etc. These criteria have nothing to do with the classification scheme described here.
