Gods

Today I invented a religion. It struck me as I was writing about a character that I needed to know what religion he was operating out of and why that religion existed. If I didn't invent one, I'd be falling back on Catholicism, and that isn't really what the novel is about. So, I invented a religion, and whew, it was fun. I have a winner God and a loser God. The loser God seems nicer. I suspect like all religions the truth if there was ever any truth in it has been totally corrupted. I also worked out the power structures withing this religion. It all has to do with Geography actually. It's good to know.
