You're using a different definition of religion.
When people talk about religions (in the context of this forum, for instance) they are referring to the bolded below:
Quote:
Definition of RELIGION
1a : the state of a religious <a nun in her 20th year of religion> b (1) : the service and worship of God or the supernatural (2) : commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance
2: a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices
3archaic : scrupulous conformity : conscientiousness
4: a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith
You are using definition 4 which is a completely different meaning.
