Almost found all religions at Monarch level

[gettingfat]

I just played a game as Elizabeth in fractal map at Monarch difficulty. I saw my starting city getting 2 oasis in the fat cross, so I gambled and tried the religious route, going for polytheism, found Hinduism, and tried my luck with Buddhism, and to my surprise I got it. Initially I thought that's enough, but my warrior popped Masonry from a goodie hut, so I told myself. What the Hexk. Then I got Judiasm. At that point for some reason 3 other civs turned Buddhist, since I'm militarily very thin from my gamble, I converted myself into Buddhist as well to minimize the risk of being attacked and used organized religion. Later I chopped an Oracle in my capital to get Code of Law. I built a temple to further increase the Great Prophet production. 2Great Prophets popped out and I used it for Theology and CS. I researched alphabet, literature and then Music and drama. Then used the Great Artist for Divine Right. I was just trying Philosophy...then Roosevelt from nowhere took my Taoism...

Well... that's a great adventure.

You'd best kill him now because in a few centuries it'll be your pluralistic self against the AI Taoist horde.

Taoist horde?? Imagine an army with a thousand American Taoists waving their wooden swords and showing Tai chi moves. That's a scene!
