What's your nation's major religion?

Postby Phastropastan » Sat May 24, 2014 10:07 am

Note: Religion names on the poll include ALL sects


Islam has been Phastropastan's long major religion, having controlled promintly Muslim areas. However, there is a rising Orthodox minority, mainly around the Volga and northern Kazakhstan.

We are atheist but there is a pseudo religion known as Iscandarianism. It revolves around a race of tall being that live for six hundred years and share many traits common to our second class human citizens. The Iscandarians are well known to not be Devine in any way but are still considered Devine beings in part due to their life spans which exceed ours by two hundred years and their great height. Not only that but there is evidence that they ruled a universe spanning empire which they willingly gave up for unknown reasons becoming pacifist.

First, there is Saurism, an ancient Polytheist religion that dates back thousands of years to the ancient time when the Saurian lands were a collection of warring city-states and miniscule kingdoms and princedoms. It entails the worship of a number of deities, the most powerful of them being Saurus, the all-powerful but merciful Lord of the Gods. Believers congregate once a week in Romano-Greek style temples where priests make offerings of animal meat and crops and burn incense to please the gods. The different priests adhere to different sects which value the nature and virtues of a particular god or goddess and follow his or her example; for example, the priests of Troodonus, the God of Wisdom and Logic, are expected to study and learn the sciences, mathematics, philosophy, and literature in order to truly understand the complex universe they live in. The religion itself values honor, sacrifice, selflessness, caring, sharing, logic, mercy, rationality, compassion, and certain moral standards. These are to be followed generally strictly by its followers. Priests carry out worship of the religion, leading prayers and religious ceremonies, as well as spreading the Word to the Faithless. The religion itself maintains a number of militant orders who, in the days of old, attempted to spread the Faith through force. They saw much action in the Drakonia Wars, where they tried to convert many Drakonians and other sapients to the Faith. Nowadays, however, they merely defend the Faith from those who seek harm towards the followers of the Faith and the destruction of Saurism . They are only allowed to use force when a people refuse to accept missionaries and kill any followers of the Faith on sight. Even then, they show mercy towards them, in the hopes that they would gain some aspects of civilized thinking.

Drakonism is also popularly followed and it is also a polytheistic religion. Drakonism is practiced by many Dragons and it entails the worship of a number of Dragon Gods, all of whom can take the form of both a Regulus or an Civlæ Drakonian. The most powerful of them all is Drakonis, King of the Dragon Gods, and widely feared and beloved by his worshipers. It emphasizes magic, humility, honor, and compassion as its main religious values and it follows a similar routine of worship as Saurism, with followers gathering in giant stone temples once a week where priests lead prayers and sacrifice a specific animal to please the gods.

Postby The Pansapient Federacy » Sat May 24, 2014 3:41 pm

The largest religious group in the Federacy is the Temple of the Savior, an offshoot of Christianity that has been adapted to Transhumanism. The death of Jesus is used as a metaphor for transhumanism, with Jesus's 'rebirth' after his death symbolizing the rebirth of Humanity (as Transhumanity). It is the most popular religion in the Federacy, though mostly limited to the transhuman population as humans have their own religions and posthumans tend to eschew organized groups like religions.

The human population of the New Terran Republic sub-state primarily follows pre-transhuman Earth faiths, with forms of Christianity and various synecretic religions being the most common. The single most popular is a (semi-bastardized) fusion of Unitarian Universalism and Buddhism known as Universal Nirvana. It pretty much combines the concepts of spiritual salvation and karma, stating that all actions have both a physical and metaphysical reactions. Acts of cruelty weaken one's soul, while acts of kindness strengthen one's soul.

Overall though, most people are atheistic.
