How are religions different than mythologies?

1.11K viewsOther

Only difference I can find is that there are people who “believe” in religions but almost everyone knows mythologies are just stories. So why don’t religions have the same treatment? They’re essentially the same thing, stories about people who may or may not have existed.

Behavior. Unique ritual, habit, that separating them from other group.

Belonging. The group itself, who manifesting the first two aspects mentioned before.

That’s why some consider Jedi-ism as religion, because *technically* they fulfilling all the category.

Tl;dr Myth alone doesn’t make it a religion, *technically* it’s no different than another story…
