Church of the Holy Wool
The Church of the Holy Wool is a small Cubic Worlds religion. Priests of this religion are relatively few (particularly compared to the more popular faith Ghastianity).
Origins
The 'Church' is actually the over-amalgamation of an inside joke started by players using the Cubic Worlds voice chat server Mumble, the idea being that wool is the most versatile and easy to use material in Minecraft.
In an early stage of construction, Zombies Forever! once had a lava wall circumnavigating the arena. At one point the builder 'ballsed it up' and caused lava to stream all over the arena floor (popularly called at the time a 'lava tumour'). The builder quickly grabbed the nearest block on their hot-bar to purge the floor lava.
The material was none other than wool.
Spectators and builders alike expected the wool to catch fire at any moment, but it never did. They came to the conclusion that the wool had miraculous powers.
Before long, a devoted church building was erected, just behind Zombies Forever!
Trivia
- The church building itself is comprised mainly of stone.
- The church is spherical.
- The church also once had a Nether portal, but it connected to public entrance, so was torn down shortly after.
