God, real or otherwise, is an entity. A personality. For all practical (to us humans) purposes, an idea; a concept.
Religion is a
belief about God.
Examples:
Christianity: Belief in Jesus Christ; the tormented, the crucified, the resurrected, all that good stuff.
Islam: "There is no god but Allah, and Mohammad is his Prophet."
Atheism: "There is no god, PERIOD!"
