But I agree with Grue that it certainly seems among the nobility that most religious observance is somewhat pro forma in any case.As for pious characters of any kind, the Starks certainly seemed pious after their fashion with regard to the Old Gods, and of course we have the examples of the religion of R'hollor, of whom Mellisandre is the clearest example (it also seems to be the religion that offers the most "cash value" for belief in Westeros). And it remains to be seen whether the Iron Lords Dagon-ish religion gets them very far. Across the narrow sea, the Dothraki don't seem to put a lot of stock in their religion, nor the Slavers (is the Harpy a God?), but the Dark God of the Faceless Men also seems to have some actual real-world weight.One day perhaps I'll get around to writing something of some length on Westerosi religion. But I'm interested in what Martin intends to do with it, if anything, by the end.</blockquote>
