Load Full StoryNext ChapterTwilights views on religion and politics in equestria.
So you had some questions, doctor was it? Twilight asked
Yes The doctor answered I was wondering what your political and religious Ideas were in this land.
Well as far politics we are an egalitarian society. Everypony is equal and as far as religion I am not familiar with this term can you explain it please. Twilight said
Well before we get to religion don’t you vote in leaders and such. Doctor said
Well we have princess celestia and princess luna as the high princess and princess respectfully and ponyville has a mayor but they are each born into the role and will do that role to the best of there ability till they die. As there cutie mark indicates. Twilight then explained that a cutie mark is a mark a pony gets where they find the special talent they have that other ponies don’t.
Ahh I see, where I come from people pick there jobs and Your idea of cutie marks And the one job you are designed for reminds me of a great philosopher from where I come from. His name was confusious and he said “pick a job you love and you never have to work a day in your life” doctor stated
The doctor then explained a few different religions. Twilight said that if she had to pick one it would have to be Zen.
In equestria we don’t have gods unless you count princess celestia and luna but they still belong to our world and aren’t in some “heavenly place”. And every pony strives to live in accordance with nature. For us nature is just that nature there is no death only transcendence from a body of being to non-being. No "heaven" no "hell". When we do die we disappear according to our race, earth ponies turn to earth, pegusi disperse as wind and unicorns become magic.
Well thank you for that Twilight, by the way wan to come for a ride in my space ship? The doctor asked
