I double Matt's point. The reason I got onto this forum, is because we (New Civilisation Foundation) believe in an intellectual discussion between the various thoughts, and this forum facilitates that. The official defiunition of an ideology is "A set of doctrines or beliefs that form the basis of a political, economic, or other system." i.e. an IDEA (about Man, Life and Universe) from which a SYSTEM emanates. Hence I will repeat, Religions are NOT an ideology, as systems do NOT emanate from them. Communism, Capitalism & Islam are an Ideology, because they have a IDEA (About Man, life, and universe) and from this idea a system emanates.
