No, the definition is distinguishing between types of faith, not between religion and faith.
Okay? I'm not sure what the point of this line is.
No. The mistake that people keep making in this thread is conflating mythology and religion. They are two very distinctly different things but that does not mean that they are mutually exclusive. There is Christian mythology that is part of the Christian faith. Note the use of 'faith' and not the use of 'religion'. There is a reason that these terms are frequently used when talking about what are colloquially called 'religions'. Religion is one part of the faith. Mythology is another part of that same faith. It is important to recognize the difference between the two but that doesn't mean that they aren't related.
