I think, during a collapse, MANY people will turn to religion, in one form or another, and will use it to explain their situation. For example, it will be seen as a punishment for gluttony, or something like that. If it's a disease that does the damage, it'll be referred to as a plague sent by God to punish us all.
However, in regards to a community, I'm not sure.
I'd hope that everyone would be tolerant enough and mature enough, to allow everyone to just get along. Whatever their religion, a good person is still a good person, and a team player is still a team player. Just because someone had a different religious belief, you'd have to be a real [inset expletive] to not work with them and get along with them, for mutual benefit.
Personally I'm a Christian, and I have MANY Muslim friends, a few Hindu friends, a couple of Taoists, a few Wicken, and many atheists. We're all people, we all get along, and we often like to debate the perspectives and variances. We all accept each other's belief's though. Why wouldn't we?
