Relifgious fanatisism comes in many forms.

The Circle's belief in saving sin are actually based on a real sectarian group of monks that once existed. They, like the Circle, believed there is only a definite amount of sin the the world. By holding massive feasts and orgies amongst themselves, they believed they kept other believers from sinning because they absorbed the sin themselves. And as they were monks, they believed God wouldn't punish them for it, whereas non-monks would be punished because they sinned and where not holy men...Yeah. I believe they were Russian Orthodox and Rasputin was part of it...Though I'm not completely certain.
