Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

It refers to a set of beliefs and practices that are not accepted, recognized, or controlled by official religious groups. Sometimes called folk or popular religion, it is practiced by ordinary people rather than by religious professionals. It takes many forms--purchase of religious literature, faith healing, meditation--and may be practiced by members of organized churches as well as by those who have no formal church affiliation.
