I tried Religious in my Last PBW game, and got thoroughly crushed before I had a chance to research the Talisman.
I did a lot better in the game before that with Organic. There was one battle towards the end of the game where I had a fleet with over a dozen ships armed with two to four Seeking Parasites each. When I was watching the combat replay, my screensaver kicked in on four consecutive turns because of all the waves of seekers flying around.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"
