Yes, to moi aussi. I can only quibble over any use of the word 'religion'
in this context, although def. 4. "A cause, a principle, or an activity
pursued with zeal or conscientious devotion" fills the quotes contentedly.

We should also contend that one's life is demandedly a global activity, in
that its community is humankind.
