What is meant by not discussing religion is to not discuss the particulars of a specific religion. The same for politics. If you were majoring in political science you could certainly tell them that. It's getting into the specifics of your politics or religion that may cause an issue. So since you could say I'm majoring in poli sci because I find the ins and outs of the political system in our country to be interesting, you could say you are interested in the religions of the world as a historical perspective, or whatever.
