If your child asks you what a ruler is, you can show him, same with an apple etc. My DS6 continously asks for definitions to abstract concepts. You know all of those things that you know but are almost impossible to put into words?

I have done my best to explain honesty, respect, loyalty etc. But the questions keep coming. We are currently working on a unit on holy wars. He asked me to define religion. Not heaven and hell, but the concept of religion as a whole. I admit it, I'm stumped. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
