   • 2014 март 3, Zoe Alderton, “‘Snapewives’ and ‘Snapeism’: A Fiction-Based Religion within the Harry Potter Fandom”, in Religions‎^[1], volume 5, number 1, MDPI, DOI:10.3390/rel5010219, archived from the original on 20 Dec 2014, strane 219-257:

     Despite personal schisms and differences in spiritual experience, there is a very coherent theology of Snape shared between the wives.

   It is the job of this court to rule on legal matters. We do not consider religious issues.

2. Committed to the practice or adherence of religion.

   I was much more religious as a teenager than I am now.

3. Highly dedicated, as one would be to a religion.
