'''Religious Socialism''' is an ideology that seeks to merge religious values with a socialist system, deeming it to be the most fitting of their given religion's charitable values. It is located in the left half of the political compass, and is (usually) culturally conservative but this isn’t always the case.

==Personality and Behavior==
Very religious and at the same time remains faithful to the socialist system. He doesn't get along with atheists and avoids his communist relatives who hate him.

==Variants==
===[[File:Cball-TaipingHeavenlyKingdom.png]] Taiping Heavenly Kingdom===

The [[File:Cball-TaipingHeavenlyKingdom.png]] Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was a state in China from 1851 to 1864. It was formed by Hong Xiuquan, who claimed he was the younger brother of Jesus and tried to overthrow the [[File:Cball-Qing.png]] Qing Dynasty and install an actually heretical [[File:Christy.png]] [[Christian Theocracy]]. While not necessarily communist, the [[File:Cball-TaipingHeavenlyKingdom.png]] Taiping Heavenly Kingdom implemented numerous policies similar to communism, such as abolishing private property and the creation of a classless society. The Taiping inplemented a large number of sweeping reform to make China more like the God Worshipping Society. These included:

*The subject of study for the state examinations for officials changed from the [[File:Merit.png]] [[Meritocracy|Confucian classics]] to the [[File:Christy.png]] [[Christian Theocracy|Bible]].
*Private property was abolished.
*Land was redistributed back to the peasants.
*The solar calendar was replaced by the lunar calendar.
*Foot binding was banned.
*Society was declared classless.
*The sexes were declared equal and women could take the state examinations for the first time in Chinese history. Women served in the military, including Hong Xuanjiao, Su Sanniang and Qin Ersao.
*The sexes were rigorously separated and entire military divisions were created for just women and, until 1855, married couples weren't allowed to have sex, unless it was for making children.
*The queue hairstyle, which was mandated under the [[File:Cball-Qing.png]] [[Chinese Theocracy|Qing Dynasty]], was abandoned.
*Opium, gambling, tobacco, alcohol, polygamy (including concubinage), slavery, and prostitution. All of these carried death penalties.

Gan Prince Hong Rengan also proposed some more reforms, which he got the permission of the Heavenly King to implement, but the [[File:Cball-Qing.png]] [[Chinese Theocracy|Qing Dynasty]], [[File:Cball-UK.png]] [[Imperialism|British Empire]] and [[File:Bonaparte.png]] [[Bonapartism|Second French Empire]] destroyed the Taiping. The reforms included:

*Making 1 railway for every province.
*Adopting steamships.
*Establishment of private banks.
*Granting of 10 year patents for major inventions, 5 year patents for minor inventions.
*Establishment of a national postal service.
*Promotion of mineral exploration.
*Introduction of governmental investigative officers.
*Introduction of independent state media officers for reporting the news.
*Institution of district treasuries and paymasters to manage finances.

The war between the [[File:Cball-Qing.png]] [[Chinese Theocracy|Qing Dynasty]] and [[File:Cball-TaipingHeavenlyKingdom.png]] Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would be known as the Taiping Rebellion, and would result in between 20-30 million deaths, making it one of the bloodiest conflicts in human history, second only to World War 2. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom issued "The Land System of the Heavenly Dynasty". This system tries to abolish feudal land ownership and distribute land equally according to population and age. But today's historians believe that it is utopian and wrong, because this system is based on the average of small-scale peasant economy.
