The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString PersonTypeByReligion A collection of collections. This collection exists to make it easier to refer to that dimension or facet of a person's behavior, attitudes, and beliefs (culture) which derives from, or is influenced by, the person's overarching `religious' beliefs, practices, and affiliations. Note that `religion' and `religious' are understood here in a rather broad sense. Many practicing Catholics do not believe in the Catholic Church's official teachings regarding Christian history or the significance of Jesus; many people who call themselves Jews do not observe any of Judaism's rituals. But it is still useful to distinguish a `religious' mode of belief, activity, and group belonging, and to categorize people using these criteria. (Jewishness is a notable special case, where the term may designate both an ethnic, kinship-based, primordial sense of identity and belonging, AND a set of religious beliefs and practices). type of person classified by religion SunniMuslimPerson Sunni SunniMuslimPerson Sunni
