philosophy says that there is nothing taken for granted…there is no default answer, nothing that shouldn’t be questioned
religion very much does not say that
De godsdienst is binnen het geloof en de verering van een bovenmenselijke controlerende macht, in het bijzonder een persoonlijke God of goden en Filosofie is de studie van de fundamentele aard van kennis, werkelijkheid, en bestaan, in het bijzonder wanneer beschouwd als academische discipline
I’d go with the dictionary on this.

The definitions are actualy quite different from eachother, and while many religions might have a universal philosophy, philosophy is by no means exclusive to religion. They may overlap, by they are no where near being synonyms.
Simply put:
Philosophy = “What is true? Let’s explore that”
Religion = “This is true. Just accept it”
Religion can have philosophy incorporated in it, but it also has dogma, creation myths, etc.
Philosophy is a science. Religion is a superstition.
In Philosophy there is much discussion. In Religion discussion is forbidden.
Very basically the cause of the two is different.
Unless philosophies Religions have predominantly prohibitive teachings
Religion is a money-making venture; just look at all the mega-churches and televangelists with their own private jets.
Philosophy doesn’t pay squat; you end up working at Starbucks, just hoping that against all odds one day you’ll make it onto Jeopardy! and there will be a category about Nietsche.
– ALTERNATE EXPLANATION –
“Philosophy is a walk on a slippery rock / Religion is a smile on a dog” (Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians)
people don’t say “god told me to” and kill each other over philosophical differences…
Religion (derives from lat. relictus est = bound to) means the human being has a connection with god.
Philosophy is that what the philosopher believes to have understood (by means of his intelligence and experience).
