DGP’s _World Builder’s Guide_, p 56, after an intro on freedom of religion on the Third Imperium, says:
“Including religion in MegaTraveller is optional -- those who are offended by the idea of developing new religions, or who feels that religion will be passe in 50th Century and beyond can ignore the concept entirely.”
On p 79, Religious Profile, it says:
“The following series of steps allow developing a special religious profile for the religion.
However, if you find the idea of including religion in MegaTraveller offensive, then by all means skip this step.”
It then includes 2-and-a-half pages of religious profiling. ;-)
Is that what you’re remembering?
