I was raised Mormon, and had always been taught that if you get to the highest heaven, you’ll become a god and make your own world. Only after I left did I find out that that’s not actual doctrine and comes from taking something that’s supposed to be a metaphor literally. And any details about the church that look bad aren’t going to be repeated by mormons, so mormons tend not to know about them.
Never met a religious person who didn’t know anything about their religion?
It was quite a cultural shock for me when I first met Americans vehemently claiming that Catholics aren’t Christians.
Tbf, Catholics used to say the same thing about Protestants.
Probably how the Orthodox felt after the great schism.
You mean all of them?
In a fantasy setting I would actually expect a religious person to know a thing or two about their religion. Only in a fantasy setting though.
