Because philosophy is explained more by knowledge and experience, and religion is mostly faith, what is felt by the heart, what man has proposed as being real, such things are explained in a holy book to be real.
Although, written by man, and translated by man, we know that in translating from Hebrew to English and other languages, we know that you can lose some of its value of what is truly being said.
I was raised with Pentecostal beliefs, we were educated that there is a greater being in this universe; we were told of the Holy Trinity, have I ever experienced a miracle “NO”. There are scientists trying to deter people from their belief, they explain or try to explain the BIG BANG THEORY that may put doubt in anyone’s heart.
To belief a scientist theory or to belief what you have known all along is a struggle in it self. I belief that you should not have to struggle if your faith is stronger than your doubt. I personally think that humans need to belief in something just because. Those who belief in this greater being have never seen or touched him, yet we belief that he is present in our daily life’s.
I like the way you distinguish between the two here in terms of experience or faith
