dhw seems to be trying to make a distinction between "religions" which in my experience are divisive, and "religion" which he sees as some "core of truth", or "unifying factor" or "common ground" between religions or cultures. If there is some common ground I would see it as being our common humanity. If you take all the religious elements out of religion you end up with humanism. Many exponents of the Church of England come close to being humanists, when they say that the teaching of Jesus is "Love your neighbour as yourself". The trouble is they are not able to divest themselves of all the rest of the superstitious baggage.
