The Rogue Nation Of Psychotic Hamsters: The Worship Of The Holy Hamster (me :lol: ). This cult is mandatory.

Jjaroian. Affects government.

Christofian Orthodox Church, affects government.

Cowsian (aka Cult Of The Holy Cow) is our main religion. Other religions are allowed, though.

The Armed Republic of One Bad Asp’s national religion is Satanism. (Of course, look at where we’re located. :twisted: ) We don’t force people to believe in any religion.... however Christianity, Islam, Judaism, etc… (Theistic religions in general are banned.) And look how well we are doing!

Tordor is devotely catholic and it effects all parts of Tordoran life.

Theres two Religions in Teritora, the Teritoran Catholic church which has the devote following of 75% of the population, and and devote Jews make the 25% of the rest of the population.

The Colony of Parratoga’s national religion is Creativity.

Camdean has a unique way of living, this book The bible is righteously placed in the Fiction shelf in the main library along with other great books of Fantasy, we dont bother our kids with tripe, as they have enough to deal with just being alive in this crazy world, Unity of Pressure has no place in Camdean.

We beleive in what powers us, Electricity, as it powers our brain and we are trying to find this source of Energy wich isn't a man on a cloud..


We are "Unique"

This affects our government as we have no worries of heaven or hell, or whatever is after, just enjoy it while we can, and dont be evil..

In The Incorporated States of Quantex, we outlaw all religion. We’re devout Atheists.

Kandarin is mostly Protestant Christian. There's a large enough agnostic and atheist minority that this doesn't affect government as much as it should.

We're with Quantex, any non-Atheists get shot, alongside protesters.
EDIT: And political and animal rights activists..

The Confederacy of Parramanica's national religion is Asatru.

The Legacy of Luporum

Basicly just a bunch of people who believe in the government of Luporum. These people believe that if they remain loyal to the governemnt we will serve them well.

They also study Luporian History, Mythology, and Modern Day events.

They do not effect government.

Joven is predominantly Catholic. It partially affects everyday government affairs.

We don't have organized reglion, just a bunch cultist in each of our allied states.

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

Animal Nation’s religion is Scientology.

Good old Medieval catholics with all the superstions to go with it complete with vampire, werecreature, sorceror and witch huntings other such things and the inquistion along with Milent church orders.

Catholic
:?

Roman Catholic. Its the State Religion.

Strictly Atheist, by Division Five (government) edict.

Rodriquezland-Roman Catholic

Holy Church of Yevon- Severly affects goverment

Zensunni- Doesn't Affect Goverment

Orange Catholic Church- Somewhat affects goverment

United Hindu Templar Organization- doesn't affect goverment

Cult of Icarus- Just a weirdo cult that things Crown Prince Icarus is God Incarnate

The major religion of Anhinga is Islam, and it somewhat affects government. But there is religious freedom.

Great Potatoland has no official religion, but its inhabitants are mostly noncategorical theists.

Alvarezistan: mainly Orthodox Christianity, though its influence on public policy is practically nil and its influence on the population has wained due to over 70 years of marginalization by the aggressivly secular educational system and government.

Demoness: Church of Demoness, which worships Mother Demoness, Daughter Demoness, and the Empress as a living goddess and daughter of Daughter. Divine right and all. Meh. Can be categorized as matriarchal paganism, I guess.

No main religion. Obviously can't affect the gov't.

Saintism (main religion, controls government)

My national religion is a combination of the best aspects of all religions. It focuses on peace, freedom, faith, hope, and love above all. It is what gives my people their compassion and intelligence, and why people of all cultures and creeds live in relative harmony in my nation.

Holy Latin Empire - the main country
* Catholic (affect Government)

Jeruselem - independent kingdom but still a puppet
* Catholic (affect Government)
* Many other non-evangelist Christian and Jewish religions

Tailand - puppet
* Many other non-evangelist Christian regions

Knootoss: most people are avowedly atheist: does not "affect" goverenmen, but government has atheist, liberal and tolerant values.

There are some minor religions, mainly amongst the small elven population

Semi-government forced atheism, with a small groups of Christian/Muslim/Jewish/Cult/Elven minority groups.

Rangoth is christian

The Gulf States - Baptist

Shi Ne Yatta - Khebian; doesn't affect government.

Atheism

Nautonnier's religion is one that can be described as a mix of Taoism and Zen-Buddhism. Here it is called Celestialism.

Proletarian Revolution: Worship of the Cult of the Organisation. Mandatory!!

Our population is over 96% atheist. Our government is atheist.

Religion is banned in our nation.

Panthea was formed on the basis of religous freedom leading to spiritual enlightenment. We have no State recognized belief system but we do recognize that spiritual beliefs have a place in the day-to-day business of Government.

We are currently reviewing the legality of sacrifice in certain religions, both of sentient and non-sentient life forms.

Monarchism - The Worship of the Monarch

Okay, I've updated it.

Agnostic, Christian

The Holy Empire of Haverton: Protestant Christianity

**bump**

like i said

Raysia - Latter Day Saint

The Most Serene Republic of Berëza is officially atheist, theoretically permits any religion, practically permits any non-evangelical religion, and unofficially favors Satanism (the LaVeyan sort)

Holy Latin Empire - Roman Catholic
Tailand - Roman Catholic
Jeruselem - Judism

I think my nation is "devotedly atheist" although if the option existed, I exercise Divine Mandate (ie. state worship)

Hey man, The Free Land of Hippie Freaks is full of cats from all religions. We encourgae spirituality is all it's forms man, just as long as it makes you happy. Free yourself man, you know?

M14's dominant religion id Roman Catholicism.

* Bump *

Synchronized-The Church of The Word: IS The government

Scardias Athem is predominantly Wiccan, though there are other Pagan paths observed a lot too. All of these religions are part of our government.

bump

Our main religioen is 60% Lutheran, over 95% Christian of one denomination or another. And, the Council of Bishops must pass any bill in a closed council before they are passed on to the Prime Minister. But, laws can only be submitted and passed intitially by an elected Parliament. So, we are a blend of democracy and theocracy, but, technically theocracy. And, so many people are in the government are also in one church or another, holding positions in both, so it is hard to tell where the church starts and the government ends. Also, most of the major denominations also have political parties.
Our current Prime Minister is a member of a grass-roots party that is not affiliated with any denomination, but he is a strong member of his church.
His is the first non-denominational party to get a majority government in over 60 years.
WWJD
Amen.

How about a lack there of. Atheism.

Defari has a majority of Anglicans

Well The Holy Empire of Henceland Omega is currently a mostly Christian nation with no real effect on the government. "The Holy Empire" part actually comes from ancient Druids who resided on the 4 Divine Druidic Religion Isles (shaped like 4 arrows) almost 4000 years ago. When the druids began to fight amongst themselves they became divided, and natural disasters occured leading to the great Break Down. Only 1 monk survived and sailed to nearby Omega Island to form the first modern civilization. He decreed however that untill HO was worthy, no person whould ever call the DDR Isles home again. This and the practices of Henceness and the ancient traditions play a part in modern HO ceremonies...

we are 2/3 Christian and 1/3 Reborn Cultists

99% Agnostic
1% Other (includes tiny cults, mass philosophies, and various forms of paganism)

There is no state religion, although many of our officials are primarily agnostic due to their high percentage.

No organized religions are allowed to recieve tax exemption.

Scientology and athiesm are banned, and all athiests and Scientologists will be exiled and encouraged to take it elsewhere.

Foreigners of Hebrew descent are allowed in the country as visitors, but Judaism (as well as Judeo-Christianity) is banned. All discovered practitioners and followers (including converts) of Judaism or Judeo-Christianity in general will be exiled (as a humane act, rather than simply killed) and are encouraged to take it elsewhere.

Hmm...
73% have no religion, and of the rest, mostly Islam and Budhism.

Velmora (My real nation)- Terra arcana

Basicly looking after the earth and looking after nature

The whole Region called "Land Of Enlightenment" is affected by their religion: "Way Of The Four"

Iuthia, mainly Agnostic (79%) followed by Buddhism (9%) and many, many Others (Total: 12%)

Others include:

Atheist (3%)
Christianity (2%)
Yevon (2%)
Islam (1.5%)
Judaism (1.5%)
Gaia (1%)
Jedi* (1%)

These are the results of our latest census (four years ago).

OOC: *The Jedi religion was added in the “other” category in the census after a small part of the nation decided that it would be funny to have “Jedi” as a official religion. There are no real Jedi’s in Iuthia… I have some pride…

*sigh*

another person who, when thinking of God pictures an old man sitting on a cloud. I don't know who this old guy everyone talks about is, but he sure dosent sound like " the supreme reality" to me. :roll:

Merriam-Webster Dictionary
Main Entry: 1:God
1 :the supreme or ultimate reality:

The Holy Empire of Pantocratoria is a staunch defender of the Roman Catholic faith. The Church is integrally involved in the Empire's electoral process, with each parliamentary seat corresponding to a parish, and each local parish counting its own votes. Elections are overseen by the Inquisition (the only role of the Inquisition in Pantocratoria for the last century has been the investigation of electoral misconduct).

The main religion of the Theocracy of La Christiania (and the Protectorate of Bautista) is evangelical Protestantism. There are many different denominations (Methodism, Southern Baptist, etc.) but they all fall under the same umbrella. Pentecostals also make up a significant minority in the nation. Protestantism affect much of the nations policy, especially on justice (death penalty is allowed but used only in extreme cases) and the economic system (capitalism). Holiness movements also have much standing in the country. Catholics and Jews make up a small minority, and Messianic Jews (technically classified as Christians) make up less than 1% of the population.

Thelas: Christian, (I do not know what the Religion of the Elves in LOTR is, worship of Eru maybe?) Worship of Eru, Belief in the combonation of Christian and Worship of Eru.

over 50% of Telcordia's Population is Atheist, but the actual Main Religion is Anchrish (will provide details if anyone interested)
