Post-modern techs Increase the size of your Attachments

A small wonder "Religious Revival", would cut current corruption in half. I base this on the scriptures refering to "Beware when white becomes black and day becomes night."; and "You are the salt of the earth...". No need for the God-haters to vent spleens, just agree or disagree, hopefully rationally.

Got spare money?

A good (ie Objective) secular ethics can have the same effect. Also, this religious revival needs to be some sort of historical fact ie actually happened. It is not enough that it exists in obscure refererences in one particular religion.

Thanks.

I agree. After all this is the story of civilization, not a particular religion.

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

I would make it only available to a fundamentalist government. As far as a 'secular ethics' wonder, gimme a break...what are you going to build, the 'EST' wonder? Dianetics? Secularism sucks ass.

Spoken by someone ungratefuly enjoying the fruits of a religious society. People will find any reason they can to hate others, religion is no difference than race or nationality. So let's not have a spaz about it.

Enjoy your Hobbesian secular state of nature...

"The Religious Revival Wonder." Improvement: makes two citizens in every city self-righteous and mildly annoying.

"The Secular Ethics Revival." Improvment: Allows every citizen in each town to remain exactly as they were before.

I think it could work... . (wink wink, nudge nudge.)

More like, citizens become so concerned with being politically correct, they're unable to accomplish anything at all for fear of offending someone.
