Editing Ptolus (section)

==Religion in Ptolus==
Religion in Ptolus can be divided to two categories. You have church of [[Lothian]], and then you have the churches of all the other gods.

Lothian is, to loan a term from our [[TVTropes|frenemies]], a [[Crystal Dragon Jesus]] and his church is the roman catholic church. They used to have an [[Inquisition]], a lot of political power (the emperors used to be the heads of the church of Lothian, until a separate position was made for that), and most people are part of the church (in Ptolus, around 60% belong to the church, while in other lands of the empire it's around 99%).

Then you have the New Gods, as they are referred to, an ever-shifting pantheon of deities that are, intentionally, extremely specific and a little off-the-wall. The church cracked down on them when the empire was established, and only in the 200 years have they started returning to mainstream society, though this has more to do with the church losing power than people becoming more tolerant.
