I'm still riffing on the idea that Catholics could master space travel.
What would they use for a compulsion system, massive amounts of

On the basis that we know of only one spacecraft capable of taking intelligent beings between celestial bodies and the first time it made the trip one of the occupants read aloud from the Bible I'd be careful about mocking the idea that religion and space travel are incompatible. The capacity of religion to cope with anything it encounters has proven itself time and time again. Scientific knowledge has not driven out belief. It hasn't even driven it out of its own citadels. Believers still infest universities.
