As we all know religion is a key factor in some peoples lives today so obviously cataclysm or not your probably going to find some kind of priest somewhere. But how exactly has religion evolved in our future. Well, while in encourage you to post some ideas here and develop a character whos a priest to the holy Goddess of Ash I will also put down a few of the more probably obvious future religions here so we can get our facts straight and those creative juices flowing.
First off, we have all probably met or heard of that one person who runs around with a Bible throwing it at peoples faces and while not everyone is like this there are people like that out there and its these people I feel who would keep a religion alive even after some kind of crazy cataclysm has occurred. And you would be MORE then right.
God: Christianity or whatever you choose to call yourself I'm sure that there are many people who believe in the iconic god and this religion while it has developed and changed in this future it is still present to a great many people. While Homosexuality and even Gender roles and representation is no longer an issue to those that claim to be the people of God it is still a major religion in our future. They of course believe that the cataclysm was caused due to peoples selfishness and sin and therefor the people who claim God as there savior in our future often try and live within there means and are excessively wary of things like drinking, gluttony, possession of many objects and anything else that could fit the description of the seven deadly sins. While this religion is still represented by the cross and the bible is still read it has been abridged and changed to fit the world after the cataclysm and few original texts remain.
Atheism: While we won't get into any debates about whether or not it was the monkey or the human that came first in our tale, atheism is very real now and in the future. While some are simply atheist due to there belief that no god would cause such a cataclysm an equal number simply believe that hey nothing is out there the end period now can we please figure out what the hecky caused the cataclysm in the first place. It's a fairly simple 'religious' point of view to have simply because it lacks religion at all.
Infinitism: This religion was started by a close friend to the founder of Lullanight a mutant who had 3 eyes. The entire base of this religion works off of the principle that there is a continual cycle in motion and that the cataclysm was reset to bring about the cycles change as humans were stopping the cycles continuation. People of this faith do not believe that the cataclysm was a curse or a blessing they simply believe that it was meant to happen in order for life to continue changing as it is always suppose to do in one big infinite circle of constant change. People of this faith have no particular quirks though you will see them wearing a symbol of an eye somewhere on there body as this is a representation of the religion. This particular religion is actually quite popular and people from all over have adapted it though some in Abbeyveil are more then a little miffed when people in there own walls are of this religion due to the fact that the original founder of the religion was in fact a mutant.The founder of the religions children are said to also have 3 eyes though it is unsure whether or not they believe in the religion of Infinitism or not.
Others, yes feel free to come up with some of your own don't be shy plop you own below or something but like I said be creative don't do overboard and if you don't got nothing good to say then do not say it.
