中国民间信仰也是一种宗教，也有最高信仰对象、教义教理、组织与教规教仪，此即“天地君亲师”、儒家伦理学说、宗族、家法族规与民间祭祀礼仪。并仿效主要人为宗教的命名方法，将之名为“社祖教”。社祖教的结构框架与理论框架，前者包括组织结构系统与功能结构系统两大部分；后者暂且称为“筑梦民生”理论。社祖教或民间信仰的终极目标，是为民众建构、维系、重构人生与生活的希望；其建构、维系与重构之路径，丰富多彩。%China's folk belief, as a kind of religion, has its own highest religious objects, religious te- nets and theories, organizations, and religious regulations and rituals. It's consisted of the hierarchy of "the heaven, the earth, the ruler, the forefather, and the teacher", the Confucian ethics, the clan, the family rules, and the folk sacrifice rituals. This kind of belief is named after the naming of some major man- made religions as "She-zu Religion" which is composed by a structure framework and a theoretical frame- work. The former includes two parts: the organizational structure system and the functional structure sys- tem; the later is temporarily called the theory of "Blessing Dream-building". The ultimate belief of She-zu Religion, or the folk belief is to build, maintain, and reconstruct the wishes of life and livelihood with a varied and colorful way.
