I first heard 'woo' at Phil Plait's Bad Astronomy Blog, and he's usually pretty good about seperating religion (personal matter) from falsifiable superstition, so I'm pretty sure it's intended to refer to homeopathy, astrology, mayan calender/2012 nonsense, interventionist prayer, antivaxxing, psychic powers etc. People being what they are, it's pretty likely that someone out there is using it to refer to religion, though.
