do your ponies have different religious views than you? - Mercyknight - 07-11-2015
First off I'm not here to start an argument or war about religion so no flaming. Except for you gay guys. Y'all can be flaming just not the kind I was talking about.
Anyhoo you guys do ponies you know have a different religion than you
In my own equestria... The royal family tends to have sun lar views as me. It turns out Jesus was on their world doing the same stuff as he was here. It turns out that their bible is the same except stuff done with hands might be a little different and the names of places and things might be different. Also Jesus was an earth pony. Anyhoo that's what I understand it to be for them so I'm looking at it that its the same Jesus. Just he went to more than one universe and world to do what he did. What about y'all though? Are your ponies religious or atheist?
Perhaps they are Buddhist?

I'm not particularly religious, however I've never asked Luna about this before, so I'm glad that you brought it up. As it turns out, ponies in my... err... 'headspace' (for want of a better term) don't really have a concept of religion, so it took a bit of explaining for her to understand what I meant.
The best answer I can give is this - Luna doesn't have any spiritual beliefs about how the universe came into being. She focuses on the present and future a lot, so it's not really the sort of thing she considers important. However, some of her beliefs about the future could be considered spiritual. Basically, she believes that life is a cycle of refinement where good things will be retained and bad things will be gradually witted away. Although the passage of time will therefore ultimately lead to a utopia, it's up to us to speed up that process so that we might see it. Hopefully that answers your question.

Wait... so there's Christianity in your Equestria?
<Not getting into my view on that to avoid pissing you off. Not that I would have posted anything flamey, just my view. If you wanna know what I would have posted here, just ask. I'll edit the post.>
As for me, religion isn't a thing. At least... in general. The closest thing to the devil we've got is an Old One. And... she's locked below Tartarus. There's a pervasive cult that worships her, but without their leader, who is very, very dead, they have absolutely no hope of garnering much power. I suppose that still counts as a religion, doesn't it? Except... well, again, not to offend, but Shub-Niggurath is very real; she's where dark magic got its name and reputation.

Different beliefs are very welcome. As are different view points. What isn't welcome is attempting to goad someone into an argument lik last night on the damned group chat. Act like a civilized adult or ask a mod to lock the thread guys. I welcome open discussion of differing faiths and comparing viewpoints. In fact this can inspire ideas for us all but to start a flame war goes past full retard straight to potato.

I have, on several occasions, called Babe "Goddess." And she has more or less permitted me to do so.
So... Similar views? x3
Disclaimer: Angelbabe does not genuinely consider herself a goddess. And I do not actually worship her as an individual would presumably worship a goddess. Though I do sometimes fall down at her hooves and hope to kiss them.

Hah. She's not quite the same one, but her power is similar. Don't take my word for it, though, I haven't bothered to do much research about her. There, not here.

don't hope, just do. if she allows it, then thank her. if she asks why, then she must certainly respect that you showed initiative in letting her know how ya feel, even if the actual act itself isn't something she at first allows you to do, she most certainly will appreciate that it comes from your love
