If a person calls themselves religious then i get nervous.  If you watch the movie " Kingdom of Heaven "  the knight is talking to Balin and says something about the sins commited in the name of religon.  I believe it is all about a personal relationship with God . Cool

Perhaps the individual is simply indicating their practice of Islam, in other words, prayer, fasting, hajj, zakat and other such outward and ritualistic performances.  And not what I'd assume you'd take exception to, that one would declare "emaan" or "righteousness" or "piety" for themselves.

Do you think that man has the right to call himself religious? Or is this  a word that should only be confirmed by Allah?

I personally think that if a person calls himself religious then he is really in denial.... I am a aware that my thinking could be wrong as well.
