Line 1: [[File:Flagofranubis.jpg\|thumb\|Official flag of the Church of Ranubis]] '''Ranubism''' is a religion founded in late 2012 or early 2013 by citizens of Danzilona in [[CivCraft 1.0\|Civcraft 1.0]]. When [[CivCraft 2.0\|2.0]] started, the religion carried over, and its followers reestablished the Church in the holy city of the DPNCCR (Danzilonan Polo-Norse Commune of the Church of Ranubis), north of [[New Danzilona]]. Followers of Ranubism are called "Disciples of Ranubis." The Head Priest is [[wingnut4096]]. Much of the information about Ranubism can be found in the in-game book he wrote called "The Book of Ranubis." == History of the DPNCCR == Line 37: == Beliefs == Ranubism is the belief that the god Ra created all life, and the god Anubis created the Earth. Both gods ~~had~~then ~~since come~~came together in perfect harmony to become Ranubis. Disciples believe that every single thing in the world was created by either Ra or Anubis.<ref name=":0">Book of Ranubis by [[Wingnut4096]] https://civbooks.github.io/books/Civcraft_2/wingnut4096/Book_of_Ranubis.html</ref> To thank them for their marvelous natural achievements, such as lightning strikes, it is common for a disciple to shout "Praise Ranubis!" Disciples also believe Ranubism to be the one and only true faith and thus reject religious syncretism. === Theological History === According to the Book of Ranubis, the great prophet Peter Fletcher revealed to the world a prophecy that the gods Ra and Anubis would come together to form Ranubis, and the world would enter perfect harmony.<ref name=":0" /> Many centuries later, wingnut4096 and many of his friends believed in Peter and founded the current Church of Ranubis to help spread the one true faith in the modern day. Thanks to wingnut and other disciples, Ranubism became a major religion of Danzilona in 1.0 and especially in New Danzilona in 2.0. At its prime, there were 15-20 disciples of Ranubis. Line 49 ⟶ 51: === Evidence === Though the studies have not yet been released to the public, disciples boast that Ranubism has been proven to be correct. ~~There~~According to the Disciples, there is no series of events that could lead to anything other than Ranubis. Therefore, it is impossible that other religions -which are founded only on belief- can be correct~~. Ranubism is the one and only true faith~~. === Fiskidagurinn === Fiskidagurinn is the name of an alleged deity that ~~exists~~would exist alongside Ranubis. The existence of such an entity has been in modern times formally rebuked by the Church of Ranubis,{{Citation needed}} and is therefore not considered canon. That being said, the story goes that Fiskidagurinn is a spirit that rested for many years in a cottage on the archipelago of Banished off the coast of NDZ. Fiskidagurinn, who was a devout disciple of Ranubis, had a vision of the great blue sea. He realized that this vision came from Ranubis, and that it was Ranubis calling upon him to be the god of the sea. Fiskidagurinn is considered equal to Ranubis by discples, though, without Ranubis, there would be no Fiskidagurinn.

Ranubism was still a major religion of the Danzilonan Federation and surrounding areas, with ~5-10 active disciples by the end of 2.0, but Ranubism was past its prime.
