There was a religious burial(barely)of Ophelia.The Queen comforted Hamlet by telling him all things must die passing thru nature into eternity.Hamlet's father's ghost told Hamlet he was in purgatory. Hamlet planned to kill the king while he was unshriven.Horatio held his sword as a cross(upside down)in front of Hamlet's body as he was borne to the top of the tower.All called on God to keep each other safe on trips from Denmark. I can think of no more!

There are several places where religious beliefs come into play in "Hamlet". The following link is to a wonderful summary that discusses many of these. Good luck!
