how does the author describe or define religion give your explanation to some of his description or definition​

Sagot :

thing superior or holy in order to justify the events that control our lives.

This definition merely describes religion, identifying the substance of religion (“set of beliefs and practices”) as well as its function (“subordinating us to something superior or holy, justifying events that control our lives”). This definition is “sufficiently specific” by its reference to “something superior or holy” and yet broad enough to apply to many different kinds of religions (the “something superior or holy” may be one or more gods or even a sense of the sacred that does not involve any personal deities at all). In referencing both “beliefs and practices” it is sufficiently comprehensive without being overly wordy. This definition, being merely descriptive, does not hint at any value judgment, neither positive nor negative in nature.
