G,
You wrote,[...your religion and others like it...]
A reasonable reader could think that my religion (Judaism) is included, not excluded. I base this on the fact that when a member of a subset is mentioned as a member of that set, it is not excluded from the set of members.
But it is much more than that, for the other religions are also included in what you wrote about Judaism ("Your religion") and the others that could have Islamic people think that what you wrote insults Islam. And Christianity as well, for that religion includes divine intervention and an after life also. Then there are the non-Abrahamic faiths also that have an afterlife.
So I do not think that readers have to be an "A" student to see that {"your religion"} is grouped with other similar religions that all are said by you as what you said. You said what you said, it is as it is. If you did not want to include Judaism, you could not have wrote {your} religion and others like it. The other religions are {like} Judaism, but that does not mean that Judaism is not included as a religion that has to do with human intelligence as you state here.
Let there be no misunderstanding here. You used {human intelligence]. That could be all humans, for there is not specified which humans. If you could explain that, I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
