The Black Death had many affects on religion. Most people believed it was God punishing them for their wicked ways and would go round whipping themselves to try and please God.

Nobody knew anything about hygiene and good living conditions, so they believed a lot about religion whereas nowadays we know the truth about how the Black Death was caused.

However, the Black Death affected religion for a small minority as they believed in God and when the "good people" such as priests, died alongside others, they no longer found themselves believing.
