  11. Religious effect • Many churches were crumbled and TOPPLED from the Earth quake. • Mythical lore was often forgotten by the damage for the people in ShanXii were too devastated to work on religion. • The change of religious effect made it hard for most to find “faith” as the 1556 chinese would call it.
