this is a sort of off shoot of the thread about whether you practice ritual per the calendar or the local seasons.
In light of the recent tourist in space stories, how long will it be before we have pagans in space? (That's pagans, not pigs..... for you that recall the Muppets....)
How would your religion be practiced in the vacuum of space, or say, on the moon or Mars etc? Do you think there will be xxxxxxx-ians practicing off world, and how will it look different than what is on world today?

Well, humans are very adaptable, so I can't see any reason why our religions wouldn't too. And since there are several pagan religions that are not nature based I think they would have even less trouble adapting. As for the nature ones, I don't see it being any dif. then if I was to move from the United States to New Zealand. I would change my routines to match my surroundings, assuming my beliefs were based on nature.
It's an interesting thought, kinda funny you brought it up cause I've been thinking about that for several months now. I agree with Shad, I find the thought of traveling to different planets absolutely fascinating. I do in a small sense follow the seasons, but they aren't a huge part of my beliefs, so it wouldn't be so hard to adapt my practices. At least that is what I'm thinking.
