Classification
The academic practice of comparative religion divided religious belief into philosophically defined categories called world religions. Some academics studying the subject have divided religions into three broad categories:
- World religions, a term which refers to transcultural, international religions;
- Indigenous religions, which refers to smaller, culture-specific or nation-specific religious groups;
- New religious movements, which refers to recently developed religions which have not reached mainstream adoption.
