The Sioux people believed that human beings, animals, and trees were all created by the Mother Earth. They believed the Wakan Tanka, the Great Spirit, created the universe, and yet was the universe. The Sun, the Moon, the Stars, the Earth, the very rocks, and the human soul were all creations of the Wakan Tanka.

The Sioux and their religion are important to them and to what they believe in, they believe in the Great Spirit (Wakan tanka), the circle of life and the sun dance and so on. In my opinion I think that the Sioux are really actually religious, this is because they do religion practices and have many beliefs and following it in a prescribed sequence.
The plural form of Sioux is Sioux.

The Souix like all Native Americans practiced religion on a tribal level. There was no unifying religion like Christianity or Islam to unite multiple tribes. The despite this religion played a big role in the Souix lifestyle. Some good information on the souix religion can be found here: http://philtar.ucsm.ac.uk/encyclopedia/nam/sioux.html
In 1862 the Dakota Sioux were known as the Dakota/Dakotah or the Sioux or the Dakota Sioux.
Please refer to the Iroqois Indians religion question. There was no such word for 'religion' before the Europeans arrived. What the white men see as 'religion' is only a way of life for the Native American. In today's society is our way to be gluttons and hunt for sport; in the old days the Native Americans hunted only what they needed. That was their way of life; to respect the animals and not abuse them.
