Some people outline, then write. Some people just write. Some companies manage projects, others just do things. Some coders test accessibility and usability and function and ensure that code is commented and documented and clean ... others use the world as their beta-testers and code name the actual release version "Service Pack 2".
Religion is trying to figure out project management where the project incorporates the known world and it's people, and where cause and effect are not always particularly obvious. Ritual is the procedural bits that seem to cause the right effects (wow, the sun rose again this morning!), or at least not cause the wrong ones (oops, no sunrise, let's not do THAT again!).
Um... which is to say, damn but you ask interesting questions... sufficiently so that after a week of 20 hour days of teaching, marking and teaching some more, trying for an answer seems like more fun than going to bed. Quality of answer, however, may be affected by lack of sleep. Apologies.
