Religion and ethnicity are distinct concepts. People of the same religion can come from different ethnic backgrounds. For example, Christians can be from various ethnic groups globally. Option A is wrong as religion and ethnicity are not the same - people of one religion can be from multiple ethnicities.

D. Two individuals may belong to the same religious group and still be from different ethnic groups.
