I really enjoy playing happy, generous and genuinely religious characters, the quietly faithful. Playing zealots is fun, but a little more straightforward and less of a challenge.
I think religious belief can have a small but measurable effect on decisions, but that might be correlation rather than causation. The shorter a decision window, the less likely it is belief will affect behaviour - it's more likely to affect longer terms. It's certain that belief can affect the pool of people you might marry, for example.
