What
is religion?
|
Religion
is commonly defined as belief concerning the
supernatural, sacred, or divine, and the practices
and institutions associated with such belief. In
its broadest sense, it has been defined as the sum
total of answers given to explain humankind's
relationship with the universe. Religion takes an
almost infinite number of forms in various
cultures and individuals, but is dominated by a
number of major world religions. With regards to
cricket, a number of "cult" religions or
"micro-faiths" have sprung up, most of
which can be regarded as frivolous or mischievious
in nature, their belief systems based on
anti-worship rather than devotion. Most of these
are short-lived although some have become
established.
