You may hire a gentile to come turn things on and off for you, referred to as a shabbot goy.
I thought this board needed some talmudic references

Why? I thought it was pretty clear from the series that 500 years hence the only viable religions are a Catholic-Protestant hybrid Christianity and a polyglot Zen-Buddhist-Shinto-Tantric-one-size-fits-all Eastern mysticism metaphysical system.
Unless you reckon we never saw any Judaism strictly because they were keepin' it on the down low?

P.S.
Maybe Badger always wore a bowler to hide his kippah?

Let's not assume that there is no Judaism...remember the mailman in 'The Message?'
Anyway...
Probably more religions than just the two hybrids, just not necessary to the plot. Although I don't think Tantra was as explored as it could've been.

I was totally going for 'tongue in cheek'. Guess I undershot the mark...
...And anything Tantric featuring Morena is perfectly fine by me. I volunteered a couple years ago to act as a training aid for any classes she might be teaching at her House. That offer still stands...
Helpfully,
zoid
