a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, esp. when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs.
If the word ‘superhuman’ is replaced by the word ‘mathematics’ and the word ‘observances’ is replaced by the word ‘calculations’ then a mathematical religion is defined as:
