ObUA: The RC Church is aruguably the world's largest cabal, and even after 
members leave it, they still possess the inclination (sometimes obsession) 
with the OU - even if they don't realise it.

Most members of the Church are of the "clueless cabal" type, although in the 
higher eschelons that might change. Possibly there is a Papal archetype, and 
the living pope (and some archbishops) are its avatars. Vatican II may have 
represented a Godwalker's attempt to boot the then-current archetype (which 
is why John XXIII died before he completed the council).

 >>>It has been my experience that Catholics are much more drawn to
mystical/theological/cosmological themes in gaming and literature than
Protestants, Jews, etc. Hindus are, perhaps, the one group I've
encountered who take this to a greater extreme.<<<

Ever play a Mage game run by a Buddhist?
