While the government of Uantir will always be religiously unbiased, The individuals that make up the Uantirian population are of many faiths. So here I'd like to invite the Uantirian citizens to come and share their own faiths.
Come on in and share whatever you like about your religion or lack thereof.

Thank you, Your Majesty, for the separation of "church and state" so to say.
My answer when asked "so what religion do you follow?" is "Nature as an applied Religious Philosophy". For me, it's basically an individualized form of Paganism. And it doesn't get the automatic assumption that I devil worship.
The rules/laws: do no harm, live harmoniously with the natural world, ever mind the threefold law; what goes around comes around.

I'm Catholic. I feel bad because I haven't been going to church very often for the last couple of years, and I've become pretty ignorant compared to what I used to know about the Catholic faith. I just keep in mind that God is a loving God, and base my beliefs around that. That doesn't mean that I can do whatever I want because God will just automatically forgive me, but it does mean that when I sin, He is there, waiting for me to repent. I view God like a parent; parents don't like getting hurt by their children, and they don't like being mad at their children.
Now, I know perfectly well that I'm pretty selfish and I sin quite a bit. I know everyone jokes about 'Catholic guilt', and I'm a pretty good example of it. *shrug* But I don't have too big of a problem with guilt. Generally, it keeps me honest and prevents me from doing things I know are wrong. If you'd be ashamed by the people closest to you finding something out, you probably shouldn't be doing it.
Anyway, I didn't mean to start preaching or anything. =D I'd be happy to discuss my beliefs with anyone if they have any questions or disagreements.
