Correction, Ezio actually kept being a christian even after his knowledge of the Isu and the AoE. Not only he defends God when fighting Rodrigo Borgia during AC2 ending but the Brotherhood novel actually states he's a christian and anything in those novels that doesnt contradict the game is considered canon Edit: It's fun to see so many atheists angry cuz I'm desperate to prove my religion true while thy're here in the responses desperate to prove a ficitonal video game character from the 1500s is atheist 💀

[@loglogic7557]

I just played assassin's creed II and am playing ACB (I'm a noob so forgive me if I'm wrong) and he does not defend God, he just asks why he preaches religion if he knows(or more beleives it's false) I know little about the novels but considering they're icky on the canon it doesn't prove much. I think its well established so far that God(s) are not real in the AC universe but please correct me if I'm wrong on anything!

[@emirdegirmenci6005]

If I remember correctly, according to one of the Codex pages, Altair became agnostic not atheist. And Ezio never became atheist.

[@nomad1789]

Maybe, but when he defeated Robert of Sable, he said "this has nothing to do with him, I'm just the better fighter" to King Richard, who replied "you may not believe in him, but he believed in you" to no objection, which indicates he is an atheist. Again, this is just assumption, he could be an agnostic, but more likely to be atheist

[@TovarischMakarov]

@@nomad1789 This doesn‘t mean exactly Altair was Atheist as none of both citations are proves. What King Richard would have meant was that Christ believed in Altair, yet muslims don‘t believe in Jesus being god

[@nomad1789]

@@TovarischMakarov nah, God is one. And they don't say Jesus or Yahweh or Allah or whatever name of God they would, so God is the same. Moreover, his only explanation is "I'm just the better fighter", not "it's my God, not yours", prove that he's believing only himself. Beside, Altair burning Al Mualim's corpse shows how he doesn't believe in Islam whatsoever (even tho he really means to prevent Al Mualim's return). If any, that shall be either atheist or agnostic (more likely the former)

[@KasumiRINA]

@@nomad1789 Altair not believing it was God's work but a matter of skill doesn't mean anything besides that. You remember Pulp Fiction? Jules was declaring that it was a miracle, Vega was skeptical about that one event... it doesn't mean he's an atheist or agnostic. Just that he doesn't believe in specific case of divine intervention... However, Altair, most likely IS atheistic in the end, as during Assassin's Creed 2 you collect codex pages and you see him being dismissive of all religions and being really scared of death, after which he doesn't believe in any continuation. He is also not shown being religious at any point, ESPECIALLY compared to very Catholic Ezio, delivering a requiem in Latin for his victims. I can also point that for all his desire for knowledge, Altair didn't get it all until he died. Only Ezio gets that there's something more beyond what we see in Revelations, as he recognizes the player existing, and accepts our inability to know things beyond our understanding. It was very creepy and I loved it. I need to finish relaying AC2 and read the entirety of Altair's breakdown. Needs all codex pages but I stopped playing a year ago, coulnd't stand Venice fireworks counting last hours until 4:45, and hearing real explosions outside my window. Anyway, remember the first game was released during Iraq war so a practicing Muslim would be risky for a playable character, I don't believe outside of France they would even dare to make a setting with Saracens as the good guys, though Crusaders are shown respectfully too, in Richard's case. They kept Altair's religion vague () to avoid any possible backlash from either side. AC2 onwards are braver games, as in, they're more open about characters convictions. I think Altair goes from Muslim (how he was brought up) to agnostic (events of AC1) to atheist (his later years by codex). Now Bayek is another thing entirely, deeply religious pagan-polytheist, to the point he justifies hate crimes against Atenian heretics that didn't worship multiple gods.

[@nomad1789]

@@KasumiRINA I guess, can't really shows considering this game's catchphrase "nothing is true, everything is permitted" would goes along with this statement. We can't be sure of what was really true there, but we can just assume and every assumption is permitted

altaïr was a citizen of the nizari state of assassins. it was located in a small part of the region that was colloquially known as “syria”, but the syrian state was not established until the 20th century. ezio was florentine. italian unification did not happen until the mid 1800s. connor’s nationality is iroquois, not american. connor being indigenous meant he never would’ve been granted U.S. citizenship. adéwalé would’ve been considered spanish because trinidad was a colony of the spanish empire (although it’s more likely that, because he was black and a former slave, he would’ve had no nationality) shay was born in british new york and was an english citizen. his irish accent was due to his immigrant parentage and, as far as we know, he never visited ireland. although ancient greeks were united by their common language and beliefs, greece was not unified until it was conquered by philip II and ruled by alexander the great. therefore, kassandra’s nationality was spartan. basim lived in the abbasid caliphate. iraq didn’t become its own country until the 1900s.

I don't see why anyone would instantly convert to atheist even after this knowledge. Isu's existence doesn't negate the existence of a God at all, it just means there was another species we weren't aware of, but they definetely were made by somebody else. The only contradiction is it was the Isu that created humanity, not God, but God created the Isu. Best way to see it from a christian perspective.

[@Leadcops]

@@gab-bj9wf based is an internet term used when someone stays true to himself and expressing what he believes in regardless of how the general public sees it (like for example if you say prostitution is bad or for degenerates, not caring for other’s opinion on the subject) then you are based for saying what is true. You can understand it as the opposite of cringe or the same meaning as saying to someone that he’s a gigachad

[@neutralbychoice3584]

The idea of Ezio being Italien doesnt really make sense when you realise that the nation of Italy wasnt a thing until the 1800s. Ezio would certainly never refer to himself as an Italien but instead he would call himself “Tuscan” because he was born in Florence. Edit: I do realise that the idea of an Italian nationstate existed since ancient times. I was only making the point that Ezio was not an “Italian” as an Italian is a national of the nation of Italy.

Adewale was living in the Spanish empire, Trinidad became British later in 1797 before the indépendance in 1962. Bayek was a subject of the Ptolemaic Egypt, so the flag is wrong Kassandra/Alexio was an Ancient Greek, the very concept of nationality was inexistant and the land politically divided into city-states, so Spartiate Ancient Greece.

I'm not sure, but being religious isn't the same as having a religion by name. Some of the assassin might be atheist in practice, but not by association.

[@nomad1789]

Problem is, by association as if you say formality (like for census) doesn't really exist back there, and people aren't concerning about it (aside from crusades, which none of them really did even tho Altair did intervene in the Third Crusades and Ezio with the papacy). So, it's up for the people whether to believe it or not, and I say none of these assassins even have citizenship, considering they're all consisted of killing machine (Altair), dethroned prince (Ezio), tribesmen whose tribe isn't even recognized (Connor), criminal (Edward, Evie, Jacob), slave (Adewale) and orphan (Arno), all of whom are deemed outcasts in addition to their affiliation with the assassins, which makes me doubt they were even given citizenship, if ever existed.

I don’t think an Assassin being religious makes much sense. Even without the whole Isu thing pretty much proving that all gods are.. let’s say “overrated”, the Creed specifically encourages its followers to constantly put their worldview and their belief system into question. To always be as open minded as possible, to never assume that the truth is a given absolute. This doesn’t mix very well with the kind of devotion required by religion. The Creed’s essential meaning is literally “Beware everyone who asks you to believe without question, and remember you’ll always be responsible for what you choose to do.”

No. They were deists and some of them were even atheist. But the Templar Order used their influence within the Catholic church to control the population through religion.

They were deistic and later atheistic. Worshipping some kind of entity called The Father of Understanding. Ezio even criticised Rodrigo Borgia for using his position as Pope, the leader of all Catholics, to have power, while not actually believing in Christianity. Because Rodrigo said that all the stories about "a man on a cloud with cherubs and angels" weren't true. So Ezio called out Rodrigo's and the Templars' hypocrisy for using religion to control people, but not actually believing.

@@GabrielOliveira-zp3ni Deism is THE believe that there is a higher power, but that higher power isn’t like any god we know in our religions. Deists basically believe that this power cannot not be known and might not actually even have a conscience or a personality. It could be a god, but it could also just be a spark that is responsible for all creation. They basically say “there probably is a god or some kind of higher power that is responsible for creating the universe, but it is not like we can know him. So all religions that claim to know god and the nature of the universe are wrong.” Deists also believe that “the Divine” created the universe according to a set of very strict laws of physics. So miracles that we see in most religions can’t be true since they all break the laws of physics that the Divine (or god) created. Deism really came up during the age of Reason when scientific discoveries showed the world worked according to laws of physics instead of divine magic, and when discoveries in history and literacy showed that there were many historical inaccuracies in the Bible and that the Bible contained many different translations and was changed multiple times. Because of this many people stopped believing in the Christian religion. But many didn’t have any alternative so instead they thought that there must still be a god, who is based in science and in reason, but isn’t the god as described in the Bible and other world religions. It was basically the first step towards atheism and the first big step towards a more secular worldview. Many of the US Founding Fathers considered themselves Deists. After Darwin discovered evolution and when the Big Bang was discovered that’s when atheism really kicked off. Because people now finally had a viable alternative to a divine creation of the universe

Arno (i still strugglle to write it we are used to write it Arnaud) is a French noble and in the files of Abstergo it is said that he used to be religious so he was a christian catholic at least at the start of the game.

Well, at least that name isn't butchered in the Witcher 3 DLC, Blood and Wine. They spell it correctly in the subtitles.

But Aveline was born in New Orleans, U.S.

[@ifoundpeaceindrowning8030]

Back then Louisiana is still part of the French Empire

[@m.r4841]

@@omartistry That's not true. They still had a nationality. In this case she's still French.

you did miss naoe and a few other extra assassin's but l dont blame you as if this realised before ac shadows was a thing [no offense] but just a thought thanks for including the newest one :)

Ubisoft's disclaimer should read; “This game was developed by a multicultural team of various faiths and beliefs who all happen to believe the same things."

Being atheist in those was completely unheard of it was like religion was law, but I don't think assassin's need to abandon religion just because the way humanity started wasn't true it doesn't really have relevance to core religious values.
