Religion

There are three predominant belief systems in the Republic: Divination, the belief that fate and fortune guide the path of men's lives; Philosophy, the belief that science rules the natural world (which man can utilize for his own benefit); and Theology, the belief that gods rule all aspects of mortal existence, the heavens and the afterlife.

Which of these is true? No man can say for sure, but it is wise to point out that all three paths thrive in peaceful coexistence within Rome. Most Romans pay lip service to all of the different religions and philosophies, balancing an education in Plato with wine libations to Jupiter, prior to consulting a diviner about the next gladiatorial fight. Most everyone in Rome uses fortune tellers and makes sacrifices to the gods.
