Buddhism(given as an example of a competing religion): A major world religion founded by Siddhartha Gautama (the Buddha) that focuses on reducing suffering through ethical living and meditation, rather than worshipping a creator god.
Identity-relations(as what Buddhist philosophy rejects entirely): The connections or rules that determine what counts as the same thing at different times or in different situations.
Logical distinction(a difference in how we think about something versus how it exists): A difference you can identify in terms of concepts or ideas, even if the two things aren't actually separate in reality.
anchor(Philosophy of religion; defining 'religion' via polythetic classification): A stipulated necessary property that a concept must possess in order to be considered a member of the category (e.g., religion), while not being sufficient on its own for category membership
