Some corners of my culture happen to take religion literally.

[ Gaius is using video, and sitting in his cabin. The lights are currently playing up, as they're wont to do, reflecting off all the glass and chrome of his replicated expensive apartment. He has a cigarette, a cup of tea, and little better to do but seek some conversation to defeat

How else would you interpret religion but literally?

[to_be_caprican]

Some choose to take the scripture as metaphor, you know. Sort've like a morality tale. The gods being representations of concepts instead of actual beings. Slightly less mental than the others, if you ask me.

I suppose it makes sense if you've never met a god.

[to_be_caprican]

Indeed. The gods in my world aren't really that, mm. Sociable, I suppose. And they can stay that way.

I see no reason you wouldn't want to be able to speak to your gods.

[to_be_caprican]

If I started talking to the gods, I'd be institutionalised.
