    well, non outcast glitch are stuck in a medieval state, so do they have a god or deity?
    also "The paladin is believed to be the holiest of warriors, striking where god demands"
    and "The paladin's breastplate is forged of Cerulium, a metal believed to be holy"
    by the way will there be lost underground glitch temples and pyramids and traces of a cavemen-like glitch society, since they evolved in a very similar way to humans?

    Heh, i made this because i was bored, unpainted glitch as angels simbolize "purity" and my character's helmet simbolizes
    "screw everything i want to put my character in the picture"

    Fantastic. Is it troubling that even though I am familiar with this picture, I was still trying to find an outlet to match the plug?

    also, it would be funny if they had iconic figures like a glitch-ized version of picasso

    Doom Lords are considered to be of deity status. Then there's also the Dread Lords from another thread about those weirdos who wanted to destroy the Universe.

    I could see Glitch still bound to their programming regarding some sort of higher creationist being not so different than God. The ones that are free from that, though, they're totally science bound. I've seen their logs, those dudes are empirical up the wazoo.

    Yep. The Glitch worship the person or group of people that originally created them, last I heard.

    Must have killed Robo-Michelangelo's back laying down for so long in order to paint that. ;)

    My Floran finds that many Glitch become hole-y after I meet them and introduce them to my spear.

    On a less stabby note, I think it would be really neat to see the social consequences/results if CF decides to put in European Medieval churches into Glitch society, and how the playerbase responds to that. Personally, I think "Stained Glass" would be an awesome background block.

    There's a mod for that :)
    Stained glass, I mean. You'd still have to build the church yourself.

    like do they believe in them as some kind of god-like entity or do they just believe in them like the alien race that created them?

    I don't think so, based on this.
    Also, I've found that platinum armor goes better with the handy space helmet and survival system than scientist robes.

    you can believe in a deity without believing in an afterlife. there are a bunch of religions in the real world that do it this way.

    also, as a glitch examine an avian alter. hivemind connected glitch do have some sort of deity.

    Example of a real-life religion with no afterlife: Jehovah's Witness. The majority go to a state of non-existence while a select few go to a higher plane. Essentially, the afterlife isn't a certifiable factor that creates a religion; it's just simply very common for religions to have thoughts on it. Correlation does not mean causation. A more concrete example of a religion without afterlife are the Sadduccees, a religious sect of Judaism that believed the soul was not immortal and the afterlife does not exist.

    They do have such figures, like Glitch versions of Shakespeare.
