Fantasy Religions

If you follow your religion to the letter, you're a cult?
Sounds super offensive...
In Final Fantasy X, most people did follow Yevon as closely as possible, by the way. If it was "Against the teachings", they usually didn't do it.
Why else would people cheer for a creepy guy like Seymour?
Anyway, just wanted to clear up the fact that if people are following their religion in the game, that doesn't make them a cultist. At the most, they'd be a "Zealot", and there is a HUGE difference.
Oh, and you can have your people believe in things that they normally wouldn't believe in this world, since ya know... magic likely exists in your games? Just a thought
(And if you still don't get that last part, think of a Shaman. They do weird things, and we'd normally laugh, but what if it started to rain after they did their weird dance and chants? Or what if someone prayed to the planet, and the planet answers? It's YOUR game, do what ya want!)
