Do realize that this is an internation list and so a word like 'religion'
with wildly different connotations in different cultures does not usually aid
communication.
[Sarcasm can communicate when there is a large shared culture else fails

eg Would it make sense to you if you were told that there are widespread
religions like Buddhism that are agnostic or Jainism that are strictly 
atheistic?
