and it’s Not true that 13 is being portrayed as hating religion, the show is critiquing extremism, zealots and a leader’s willingness to use a population’s religion to manipulate them into doing awful things. 13 participates in prayer in The Tsuranga Conundrum, she Also is angry at the Judoon for defiling a place of worship when she hides in Gloucester Cathedral with herself Ruth.
