of course wala.
Naay idea? I actually consulted that very definition before I posted my views, ergo, my thoughts on religion are based on that same exact passage. As you can see it uses the word "commune". A commune is an organization in society. What is an institution? It is a group within society that has a formal set of rules/philosphies and objectives. Ergo, religion is in fact an institution. If it were not so, then wala unta'y separation of church and state. The state recognizes groups of people like families and religions to be institutions, like the state or a school itself is.
So mangutana ko, why do you claim nga "para dyud naa kay idea"? Are you trying to make me look as if I need to be taught? If so, ngano man?
