Religion is an institution established by man for various reasons. Exert control, instill morality, stroke ego, or whatever else it does. Organized structured religions, all but remove God from the equation. One confesses their sins to a clergy member, worship in elaborate Churches, told what to pray and when. All these factors are not praising God.

Thus, religion is not so easy to pin down or study. Because of the long histories involved, and the often sketchy and sometimes contradictory details, it is highly difficult to pick what you are studying in the first place, let alone actually study it.
