As the title suggests, i am currently looking for anything related to the Minmatar's and Federation's Religion( although i understand that the Federation had never had a one and only religion). Books, articles, personal explanation from people who hold a specific place in the religion, anything really.

Regarding the Federation since i have received some basic education when i was on the University, i know that there are many practices and religions that vary from region to region, even from planet to planet within the same solar system. The same to an extent if i am not mistaken can be considered even for the Minmatar religion.

That however doesn't mean that if you have a piece of information that is considered very trivial, it shouldn't be noted. I am looking for everything, trivial or not so please feel free to share anything - as long as it has a legitimate basis.

Please contact me personally or through here.

Here's the short version. Religions everywhere: a lot of time spent worshiping things. For the long version, try a search.

For ***** sake, maybe you could GO THERE IN A SPACESHIP AND ASK.

...

Of course, this has nothing to do with Gallente trust fund tweenietwats showing up on the stairs of The Holy Cathedral, smoking whoknowswhat and asking "So what's all this about then?"

I'm not going to post an insulting and frankly diluted GalNet articles (or several) here as people seem so keen to do nowadays.

However, if you would like to ask me about any of my beliefs as a Matari spiritualist, you may.

What the Minmatars and Gallente do falls more into the category of superstitious nonsense rather than religion.

Disregard Rodj, he's a Personal A.I. (PAI or 'PIE') with only a couple of dozen pre-written lines of dialogue.

I've found that personal conversations provide the best opportunity to truly learn of other faiths. It is one thing to read an article or study a bit of scripture here and there, but it is the hearts and minds of a person of faith that has the greatest potential to provide information of this sort.

You are welcome to contact me regarding what knowledge I do possess of Matarai spirituality as well as a few of the most numerous faiths present in the Federation. I make no promises to have the information you seek, but what I do have is yours for the asking.

If you truly seek knowledge about Matari spiritualism, you should start by having a look at its roots : the Vherokior mystics, and if you are courageous enough, the Greater Sobaki Desert on the Coricia Continent. Then, talking to contemporary people like shamans, will probably help you to make your own idea on how that religion has evolved, and spread, and how it is used and declined everywhere.

The same can be said about the old politheistic religion of the Garoun Empire.

From cultural studies, I can inform you that you will need to to an in depth study into religions in the Federation based on region, as well as ethnicity and sub-cultures. For example, the Intaki Ida is but one of the many religious and philosophical practices you will find in the Federation, there is also the presence of a self-titled Reformed Amarrian Church in the Federation.

It would most suit you to find a representative (or even a couple) from each region and faith and ask them personally for their beliefs.

The only religion you should be concerned with is the only one which has the word of God. Do yourself a favor and stop wasting time chasing false idols and save your soul.
