I've not really played a game more critical of religion than FFX is. It shows religion (or at least Spira's religion) to be corrupt, inept, lying and oppressive.

I've always loved the mythology and history in the Shadow Hearts games myself.

That made me think: is it just me, or are the religious lot usually the bad guys?

yeah thats true. I agree with that but whos to say that every religion is correct anyway. I'm a christian but i dont belive in the bible. anyway i truely belive that some of these mythilogical religions or belifes are correct to a point. just because we cant see it, doesnt mean it cant be real

Then, something will either eat that animal, or that animal will die, and their corpse will act as fertility to a plant, that a certain animal will eat.

I'd rather call them fanatics than religious
