Sorry science uses concepts as well:

con·cept (knspt)
n.

An abstract idea or notion.
An explanatory principle in a scientific system. Also called conception.

or

Something formed in the mind; a thought or notion
Also didn't God start with the word, the concept before creating?

As for religion it is a lever, it can be used to hoist people up or whack them around the head into submission. Either way it is up to the weilder to determine the morality of the tool.
