Christianity

Christianity is a terran Abrahamic monotheistic religion originating from Earth. While its teachings were widespread through the 21st century, the rise of the United Powers League in the 2200s saw a crackdown on old world religions, with many sects of Christianity being banned by the Unitariate Commissions in 2231.

Nonetheless, the belief system survived the Long Sleep and continued in the Koprulu Sector. As the Terran Confederacy had a limited tolerance for faiths and belief systems they disagreed with, some sects of Christians fled to the Fringe worlds and beyond, with colonies like Bountiful being founded under a Christian sect named the Patriarchs outside of Confederate control.

Many terran ships types, expressions and names take influence from the mythology surrounding Christianity.
