no worries about the save - i've been forgetting them a lot lately too.
sorry for the delay all; RL has been a hurricane lately, but onto the report . . .
Lets start off with a religious accounting:
1555 ad
I would really like to found this town:
If only to find out the true power of a late-game Nat'l Park town with 16 forested tiles!
1560 ad
I saw that Gilgamesh would trade with us, so I dialed up his virtual phone:
I didnt make the trade since I wasnt sure if we cared that much about spreading around our techs since were so far advanced. However, in an SP game, I wouldve pulled the trigger on this.

I also did a quick tally of our own cities religion spreads. We need 6 jewish, 8 christian, 9 islamic, 11 hindu, 12 confucian, and 2 taoist missionaries to have 100%. This will need to be recalculated soonish.
1585
The RNB(uddha) smiles upon us:
I, of course, paid the paltry sum, and I think we got about 4 spreads for free! Well, for 37g.
Astronomy comes in, going to head towards Superconductors and Labs for the SS Construction bonus. I couldn't put off of Sci Method any longer if we're going for a space win.
I also was having some trouble finding a city that looked like it had NO religions in it
