Smokism
The religion holding Smokey the Bear as the overlord of time and space. Followers of Smokism perform a ritual prayer every Tuesday and are REQUIRED to volunteer as a fire fighter at least once in there lives.
Mafism
The religion that hails Mafez as a god. They believe Mafez is the strongest of all the members in the council of cats. They are often the most extreme of the religions, frequently protesting against laws and regulations that contradict their beliefs.
Wiism
This religion believes Nintendo (Specifically whoever worked on the Nintendo Wii and Wii U) are the saviors of humanity and ladmanity. Followers are often very devoted to the religion, but they trend to practice in secret away from non-Wiists. Your best friend may be a Wiist, and you'd never know.
Carlam
Carlam is the religion that worships Carlos. (Which isn't very outlandish since he did make all the lads...) Carlos doesn't directly associate himself with the religion, but they take all he says as gospel. This usually leads them to respecting people and doing public service to clean the woods and such.
Humism
This is the religion with the least followers. Lads who believe in Humism think that the entire world they live in is an illusion. That lads weren't actually made by Carlos, but by unknown, powerful humans, that used computers to draw lads to life. They believe that the humans create everything that goes on in the lad world. Their actions, their histories, everything. They also think that all of the information is kept on an online database, where they update it daily.
But that makes no sense right? We all know Carlos is the creator everything, how could something as strange as this be true?
Law of Dust
Law of Dust is a popular religion in the Badlands. Followers, who call themselves dusters, believe in the Goddess of Dust who is a personification of the sun. It all started when someone came back to their tribe with tons of resources, claiming it was given to him by a strange, glowing woman. Ever since then, sightings of her have become more and more common.
Jape Day
Jape Day occurs on April 1st. Many believe it to be the long-awaited sequel to April's Fools Day. There's not many differences except for the Failed Jape Policy. if someone's Jape fails, they must stay in their local dungeon for the rest of the day, the problem is there ends up being to many people in the cells, so some actual criminals sometimes are able to sneak out with all the failed Japers.
Frost Fest
Frost fest is much like our Christmas and hanukkah and ect. However, it has changed from a religious celebration to a celebration of snow and it's beauty. Frost fest also lasts 7 days, from December 1st - December 7th. On the first day people get small gives, like chocolates or key-chains. It ramps up until on the seventh day people are getting gifted computers, cars, ect. Carlos himself normally is the one who personally picks out the gifts for everyone, but they can still of course buy gifts for each other.
Ire Day
This day falls on November 3rd and is a celebration of the council of cats defeat in 5402. The day is celebrated much like the US' 4th of July. Fireworks and shot and BBQs are had. At the end of most firework shows, a firework in the shape of Carlos is shot out, to celebrate him leading the seige against the CoC.
Human Day
Once a year, on August 12th, the Lads celebrate human culture by participating in human activities! Activities include, taxes, wearing mustaches, and eating large amounts of cereal. Researchers assure you this is what humans did most of the time. This day was made to make Darius and John Smith feel more included, but the Lads end up liking it way more than the humans do.
