Hmmm

Good points. I always thought that there was something like that, but I wasn't sure. (Also Matthias was Martin just as Jesus was God.) --File:Sabretache.jpgVerminfate 19:09, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Explanatory

it probably has similarities to Catholicism because most Abbeys in England were Catholic. --Martin2 File:SwordOfMartin.jpg ^Speak! 00:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I agree

Christianity sounds like the best call. That goes for all the religions under this term (catholic, lds/mormons, ect.) It has a lot of similarities. The satanic/devilish points too. Each book has a hero/savior, and each has an enemy/devil. Furthermore. Like christianity. There are visits from those who have passed on. They have spirits, and ghosts.

As to Martin's sign being the tapestry. Why would that be his sign? I mean, what about his sword? Isn't that as important as the tapestry? It's in every single dream, and several of the books are all centered on finding or retrieving the sword. Also, the sword could be likened to Christ's cross. A symbol of both death AND life.

This is one of the reason's I really like Redwall. I can apply it to my religion. =) Charie Swordmaid File:MossflowerChrisBaker.jpg ^Chat! 01:31, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Theory

The most practical theory I know is that Redwall has no religion. Maybe Loamhedge had one, but with so many people coming to Loamhedge, it caused conflict. Eventually, they only kept the morals of religion, not the religion itself. Since Redwall was founded mainly by Loamhedge mice, it was carried on. --Martin2 File:SwordOfMartin.jpg ^Speak! 23:20, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Interesting

It's an interesting concept, I have always wondered about it. After reading this it makes sense.

I have no doubt Redwall's religion was based off of Christianity. Brian Jacques is a Catholic [read his bio]. --NeildownFile:Neil down.png Semper fi 01:49, January 21, 2010 (UTC)

BASED yes, but I dont think of any single character as jesus.Kanas the Otter Warrior ^Talk!

I believe that MTW is looked at more like St. Michael than God, as they don't actually worship anyone in the books. I have this explained here> Similarities of Martin --NeildownFile:Neil down.png Semper fi 14:34, January 21, 2010 (UTC)
