>As Celestia is my witness >substituting God with Celestia

They're like an ancient egyptian society. Celestia is like a pharaon, who is a ruler and a god at the same time

They know Celestia is constantly monitoring everything her subjects do, so it's actually a fact not a belief.

>>27801317
Well she is a God, think Greek or Roman mythology that has many gods and unlike today's religions the gods are flawed and far from invincible or all knowing.

What's with all the religious threads over the last three days?
I don't have a problem with religion, but posting it here is basically a massive triggering device for the autists who haven't learned to pass it up yet.

I think it's because the SJW overseer/janitor guy keeps deleting Christian Shimmer stuff, someone is angry with this

No, the "celestia as my witness" just refers to the fact that Celestia's secret police monitor fucking everything.

>So, if you'll all excuse me, I'm going out onto the sidewalk, I'm dropping to my knees, and pledging my eternal soul to the thing that literally controls the fucking weather.

I probably would.

Maybe that's why an actual god (if it exists) doesn't show itself. If it's something tangible/physical that you can see then you will always live in fear of it as it's very "real", and the whole free will thing goes out the door only trying to appease it in not killing you.

>Are ponies religious?
Yes
>Do they regard Celestia as God?
No, they're referring to the sun. The Princess is coincidentally named after it but is no god/goddess. She keeps their planet spinning on it's axis, thus bringing day and night. (Luna aids in this task).

Princess Celestia is a high priest of a sort and the 'Summer Set Celebration' is a religious tradition where she raises the sun so that ponies can worship it.

Written by americans, who like to put god everywhere in their speech even when not religious.
