aryan brotherhood is a prison gang...hardly a religion.

So does the state have to approve a religion in order for it to be a religion? Their parishioners believe they are a religion - who am I (or the state) to tell them they're not?

many of the others are actually sects

So? There are lots of sects that fall within the general rubric of 'Christianity'.

I know ABs, they are not a religion. They don't really worship anything but power and self preservation in prison. They might on occasion ask a Christian Identity adherent for mythical advice.


I doubt many know what a Strong's Concordance is...lol


by your definition and the rest of the secularists, anything is a religion.

A sect is not a religion. It's a sect.
