Yeah, but generally, the educated citizens all worship the stars.

I would assume there are schools somewhere in the Mushroom Kingdom. Just because we don't see them doesn't mean they aren't there. Case in point: bathrooms. I think we can all agree that putting a bathroom in every building in a game would be a waste of development time, and it's not something that the average person thinks about. But we have to believe they exist because a society would have a tough time without them.

That question reminds me of something I read in a college bathroom. >.>
"In the days of old when the knights were bold And toilets were not invented They dropped their load upon the road And went off quite contented"

John Crapper was the inventor of the first outhouse, which is where we got the terms "The John" and "The Crapper." The more you know!

These are all good ideas about religions but what about the Shy Guys? I think they worship the great Shy Guy in Mario Party 4 if you consider it canon.

Don't they work for Wart and Kamek? Yes, but this has nothing to do with religion.

Meh i assumed all of the minions in Mario games worshipped their leaders (in this case Wart and Kamek) I don't know if they picked this religion by choice or if it was forced or if they even follow it

Eh, they could be religious leaders, but I doubt it.

It could be the religion forced but shy guys choose not to follow it

All of that is speculation.

Okay, I think that the Overthere/Underwher Dimmension is sort of like a Holding Cell, between the Mushroom Universe, Heaven, and Hell! Remember in SPM, if you go to the Underwhere, you can Request a meeting with the Queen! She will Judge you, and decide whether you go to Hell, or the Overwhere. If you don't request a meeting you gradually becom a Shayde, but if you go to the Overthere, you can speak with King Gambi, who will Judge you(If you pass, you get sent to Heaven)! So, its sort of like Purgatory, and the King and Queen are like the Angels' of Death. Both the Heaven, and Hell Afterlifes are shared by the Multiverse!

Heres my Theory on how all of the Religions of the Multiverse can be True: The Supreme Being, Lets call Him "The Allmighty"(Because I've got DQIX on my Mind), Creates the Realms, and appoints "Lesser Beings"(See:Demigod) to Watch over each One. In very few Realms does He directly Govern, mostly shaping the Realms indirectly through the Deities! These Deities Include: -A Being who Governs the Star Spirits (Mushroom Universe)
-The Golden Goddesses, and various Unnamed Deities (Hyrule, Termina, Holodrum, etc.)
-The Grand Architect, Zenus (The Protecterate, and Observatory)
-Two Unnamed Deities (Xenoblade)
-Palutena, and (Formerly)Medusa (Kid Icarus)
-Master Hand, and (Possibly)Crazy Hand (World of Trophies)
Well, what do YOU think?

One issue:
There's no evidence for an all mighty being above those, and he seemed to do nothing against Ganon, Count Bleck or Tabuu among others, all of whom basically wanted his job.

When I said the All-Mighty, I wasn't talking about Zenus(Who is Omnipotent in his Realm, only). I just like the Name, as it fits the Description of the Supreme Being(Fancy way of saying God)! And He did do something about Ganon, Count Bleck, and Tabuu! He helped the Heroes(Link, Mario, and the Smashers, respectively). This Theory explains multiple Religions, while all of them being right! In some Realms he is Worshipped directly(Possibly in the Mushroom World, despite their reverence of the Stars, there's no Evidence that they Worship them), and in others(Such as Hyrule, or the Kid Icarus Realm) they Worship him through Lesser Beings(The Golden Goddesses and Palutena, respectively)!

But he had to act through the heroes. Which theoretically leaves such a being as far from all powerful or important. Indeed, if Bleck's plan had gone through, it would have probably destroyed... everything possible, including any other related series. You would have thought such power wouldn't be left lying around so easily.

He didn't have to Act through them, he chose to! Think about it, wouldn't a Supreme Being know that Bleck's Plan would fail? Of course! But I do agree that Bleck would have Destroyed the other Series as well(Making Mario the saviour of the Multiverse).
