Here's another six pack for Sprawlvember. This time it's a wonderful little rundown of six various religious movements for the cyberpunk dystopic future.
Cyberpunk Religions
1 – Augment Godhood. A belief that modifying our mortal shells is how we step closer to godhood. These folks go to the extreme ends of cyber and bio tech, some no longer resemble humans.
2 – Net Asceticism. Those who believe that the net is the next step of humans transitioning into their spiritual self. They’re main goal is to toss aside their physical pleasures and bodily desires and ascend solely into the net itself.
3 – Labor of the Luddite. An offshoot of minimalist living religions. They are of the mind that we must destroy the technology that enslaves us, and it’s creators.
4 – Communal Sects. These are people who seal themselves inside large city block sized structures. Trying to become completely self reliant with as little contact or dependency on the outside except contact with other sect structures.
5 – The Coexistent Congregation. What started as cults worshiping modern day idols, influencers and celebrities has turned into a full on mob mentality religion. Where they see themselves as the grass roots of power that helps those they worship achieve immortality through fame.
6 – Inquisition of Purification. A violent order that thinks all forms of body augmentation is the work of a great evil. Those who take on these marks of the devil must be punished and destroyed.
