In the bleak world that is the North American wasteland there is very little for a man put his faith in as the threats of raiders and super mutants and the invisible threats of disease and radiation can take everything away from a person in an instant. Yet there exists in the wasteland a beacon of "hope" the Reformed Methodist Church, a Fundamentalist Christian sect that believes all of the wasteland's problems can be traced back to age old scapegoats of drink and drugs. The church advocates the destruction of all such substances and those who dare partake and create in them.
