Abstract
There is a strong relation between the religion definition of sociol-ogy and Christinity. These definitions give some cruical clues be-tween enlightining of the religion critization and the mythological character of Christinity. Considering the relation between religion and culture, religion sometimes determines culture or oppositely culture determines religion. The mythological character of Chris-tinity has been formed by the Paganic culture of Greek. The effect of enlighment thought incited the Christian teologists on the ef-forts of the demythologisationof Bible.
