Not all religions are "theistic".

A religion is not a theism.

Theism, though, just about always causes the formation of a religion.

It might help to look up "theism", which is a belief...

and compare it to "religion," which is an organized system...

They're not mutually exclusive terms.

There are polytheistic religions too. And nontheistic religions.

How do ethnic religions of Confucianism and daoism and universalizing religions of Christianity and Islam differ in cosmogony?

Most ethnic religions lack a clear perception of how the universe came to be, as they focus more on our current state of being and improving it as is.
