Scootalove 10,689 September 3, 2013 Share September 3, 2013 Bronies vs. The World petition? Bronyism doesn't need to be religion because, we have enough religions already fighting over which religion is superior. So, not going to happen but good effort for trying. 6 Credit: Moony © Forum FAQ Forum Rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Old Head 4,816 September 3, 2013 Share September 3, 2013 This is a bit extreme, don't you think? There are a number of fandoms way bigger than ours and they don't feel as if they need a religion. They're just satisfied with enjoying their entertainment in unison... we should be able to do the same. :3 I believe there's already a Brony Church, as a matter of fact. I think it was called the Church of Celestia. Question remains as to whether they seriously consider themselves a religion 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxyCryptid 4,330 September 3, 2013 Share September 3, 2013 I have to respectfully disagree with this. Mainly because, in theory, manly religions are supposed encompass the same values us bronies try to have. I'd go far as to say humanity in general should have them. It's just a matter of how people act when you actually try and put it into practice. Not to mention people think we're crazy as it is. 1 "You know, I don't know who or what you are Methos, and I know you don't want to hear this, but you did teach me something.

Smarts 1,623 September 3, 2013 Share September 3, 2013 Sorry, but I don't agree with this. Bronyism doesn't need to be a religion. It's just too silly. Making a religion out of a show. Just no. 3 IF is best girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Chaotic Eddie~ 479 September 3, 2013 Share September 3, 2013 I think there's already enough cartoon gods out there. Haruhi, Kira, Madoka... We're spoiled for choice anyway. Plus, I pretty much agree with all you guys. Making a religion out of MLP is a wee bit extreme. I do poetry.

Jamesblorg39welsh 125 September 4, 2013 Share September 4, 2013 Well if I ignore the fact that this idea is crazy aren't you supposed to believe in religions? I mean we know celestial is a tv show character, Right? "If you feel the need to treat me like garbage, I'll feel the need to throw you into the back of a compressing garbage truck." "I'd rather "go to hell" for hugging a guy I like then makeout in heaven with a girl I don't."

long gone 8,929 September 4, 2013 Share September 4, 2013 It's a TV show with a fanbase generally regarded as crazy, do we really want to create a religion about a TV show? That would just make us seem even more crazy to outsiders. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PonyRocker95 106 September 4, 2013 Share September 4, 2013 Are you nuts!? Not to be mean but no ones going to sign this! We all have our own religions why would we make one to a TV show that will die out in a few years?

Wardaddy 470 September 4, 2013 Share September 4, 2013 A religion? Really? I can't help but feel this is taking the show and the fandom business a little too far. Bronyism should be strictly a fandom and nothing more. A religion would only serve to alienate us further from other people or worse, from other bronies, and tbh I don't think a lot of the fandom would follow it.

Shift 4,272 September 4, 2013 Share September 4, 2013 Bronies are a fandom. A fandom. Besides, if Bronyism was a religion, then what would we believe? The 'magic of friendship' and the show is real? Would we have churches where we pray to Celestia? Wouldn't this mean other bronies need to switch religions? I am probably going to switch religions later on, but after that, no way. And honestly...this would make us seem even more crazy to outsiders. In all, I think this idea is really bad. I'm saying it nicely as possible though... Have the courage to think and act on your own. And have the courage to disobey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Night 151 September 4, 2013 Share September 4, 2013 sorry but no...I will not bow to celestia. Only one princess has earned my eternal respect and her name is Princess Luna. But on a serious note...just no, aren't we different enough as is? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
