Religion Mod

Religion Mod vs

In this mod, I have basicly changed the original civs into religions..
I did have a problem with the leaders. I tought that someone might disagree with the leader choise, but I have made God the leader of most civs, that should fix that problem...

Here is the 0.2 version.
Im sorry for the delay, but here it is..

There may be some more as well, but I havent got anything more planned, so there I
need ideas from you guys!!

Do you considder Democracy to be a Religion?

No, If you saw the readme, you would see that I ment democracy to be the governemnt where you could release yourself from "the grasps of religion".

Very interesting i've had a look at it in the editor and hope to find time to playtest

Are you sure this is a mod? Not a scenario?

its a mod baecause there is no scenario to play out its up to the player how the game goes where as if it was a scenario for eg about WW1 the player has to go along with the war or its rather pointless downloading

Hmm... This sounds like an insult against religion.

not realy. Im religious myself, but I dont think Religion and Government should be to mixed up in each other...

That was what I meant...

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I guess I was on OT too long. :crazyeyes: By the way, it's spelled "Atheist" not "Ateist", "Catholic" not "Chatolics", "Mythology" not "Mytology", "Norse" not "Norron", and there's no such thing as "Jewism". It's Judaism.

i dnt see why democracy is there : surely Atheism is "free from the grasp of religion"

Yeah. It's quite possible to have democracy and religion. Early America is a prime example. Now that the anti-religious folks have settled in, trying to remove God from every facet of American life, it is no longer so.

Well, just remember that not all Americans are Judeo-Christians, or Muslims.


Though, this probably isn't the thread for such a discussion or debate.

Democracy though is not a religion, and shouldn't be a religion "civ" in this mod, in my opinion.

While Atheism isn't technically a religion either, it is someone who doesn't believe in it, and should be included, instead of Democracy.

Currently I am on Vacation and I cant reach the files, but when I get home (about next monday) I will fix the errors..

No ofense, but you should have polished this up before releasing it, you have A LOT of errors and stuff.

an atheist isn't someone who doesn't believe in god or religion, an atheist is someone that doesn't believe in this reality. they don't even believe they exist

I will polish it up when I get back, ther reason I didnt do it before I released it was that I wasnt sure if people would actually like the idea for a mod and Im not very happy about making a mod wich noone likes...

err.. sorry double post

Huh? Since when? Now I know the Civ3 forums are not the best place for this but where did you get that idea from?

Webster's New World Dictionary has it defined as:

atheism: the belief that there is no God

Where you got you're idea from, I have no clue.
