Religion
There is no scholarly consensus over what precisely constitutes a religion. It may be defined as a cultural system of designated behaviors and practices, world views, texts, sanctified places, prophesies, ethics, or organizations, that claims to relate humanity to supernatural, transcendental, or spiritual elements.

The writers against religion, whilst they oppose every system, are wisely careful never to set up any of their own.
Edmund Burke, A Vindication of Natural Society (1756) Preface. Vol. I. p. 7.
Religion
What we have here is a war--the war of matter and spirit... The war of banks and religion. Banks are the temples of America. This is a holy war. Our economy is our religion.
Giannina Braschi on the war against terrorism as discussed in "United States of Banana" and in New York 1 TV [2]

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Anonymous "God's Gonna Cut You Down", traditional folk song.
