Most christians will not tell you that christianity engulfs their life, and it's true, but really something else does. Religion is that creed which consumes you and drives your decisions, many of us don't even know what it is and have tremendous difficulty admiting it, let alone professing it.

So a overriding belief is a religion. Working out to gain strength is a religion, work is a religion, etc.

The funny thing is, atheism, the lack of a belief of God/Gods doesn't fit in there, because it's not a belief-it's a lack of a belief.
