What are some examples of religion in the book Huckleberry Finn?

by mark twain. after chapter 10 please

“Oh, come to the mourners’ bench! come, black with sin! … (AMEN!) come, sick and sore! (AMEN!) come, lame and halt and blind! (AMEN!) come, pore and needy, sunk in shame! (A-A-MEN!) come, all that’s worn and soiled and suffering! – come with a broken spirit! come with a contrite heart! come in your rags and sin and dirt! the waters that cleanse is free, the door of heaven stands open – oh, enterin and be at rest!” (A-A-MEN! GLORY, GLORY HALLELUJAH!) (20.31)

Thought: There is a brainwashing quality to the repetition of words at this religious gathering.
