Has anyone else wondered what kind of religion they used in the EF because I have thought about it a lot. Here's some of the information we're given on religion that I can remember:

-In season 1 Baelfire exclaims "gods, no", implying that Misthaven, or that region of Misthaven anyway, is a polytheistic religion

-Eric held a ball in honour of Ursula, a sea goddess, and Ursula (season 4) was named after her

-We see the existence of actual gods, such as Poseidon, Zeus and Hades, and demigods like Ursula and Hercules.

-There is an afterlife, roughly like the idea of Heaven and Hell and the idea of your souls being judged (one could even argue the Underworld acted as a sort of purgatory). On that point, the Underworld exists, which is found in many religions.

-The name Killian is a Christian name, coming from St Kilian and one of its meanings is "little church". Likewise, the name David is a Hebrew name and comes from the Old Testament and James derives from the New Testament. So could there be at least some version of Christianity and Judiasm in the  Enchanted Forest?

I know the names are probably irrelevant but it could be fun to speculate. I find it fun anyways.

Thoughts?
