As I understood it: ideology is what I hold to be true; philosophy was the methodology to attaining my ideology.
I don't think so.

Examples of ideology are religion, capitalism, communism, political parties, etc. There are many different philosophies also and I guess sometimes a philosophy becomes an ideology as is the case with objectivism which might be considered as a cult to Ian Rand.
