lol if I make someone religious it's usually because in canon they're covertly racist with no direct statement as to their personal belief system.

Which sounds terrible, but you have to admit isn't an unfair stereotype of certain US states.

I don't find that religion and racism necessarily go hand in hand so a character never stated to be religious suddenly having true faith just because they're racist would be a stretch for me.

Now if the character is covertly racist and starts using religion to preach hate or justify things to people, that's less of a stretch, but retroactively adding it as an explanation after they've been racist without a hint of religion in canon is a bit different.

Sometimes racists are just racists.

lol whoops. Wasn't trying to imply causality. Just saying if they're from Alabama, they're more than likely both.

Wow. Is that broad brush as heavy as it looks?

Slow night on tumblr?

I know what you mean, it definitely wouldn't be a outlier for them to be both.

It just bothers me when people add actual faith and consideration of religion to characters that never showed any in canon. Especially if it's a very serious canon. You'd think it'd have come up at some point if it were important to them to play any significant part in a fic.

Besides the intentional religion/history setting AUs.

SA

I feel the same way about this as I do if someone writes the character randomly having a secret separate family with children they love and adore or something. Or five previous divorces. Like the whole time they never thought about or mentioned these things that would have a big impact on their lives and I'm supposed to believe this is believable and realistic for them? OFc, again, the more serious the canon is, the harder it is to believe

Especially if it's a very serious canon

That might also bother me if I were invested in the canon. I have never actually done it with a detailed canon though, so I can't speak to results. The same way I can't say I've ever written anything with any investment in the fact that the characters I've interpreted as religious were... well, religious.

I've only ever occasionally used religion in fics as a tool to try to focus a constellation of canon character traits that made more sense coming from someone with a particular background in a particular area of the world.
