    Mythology is only a part of religion (and often survives after the rest of the religion has withered away). Mythology is the stories that try to explain why the world is the way it is.

    A living religion will also feature doctrines (a set of teachings, typically about morality, correct beliefs, prescribed or proscribed attitudes or sayings or practices) and rituals.
