Strange religions in your nation?

Postby The Neo-Confederate States of America » Sun Jun 08, 2014 10:32 pm

So, are there any strange religions in your nation?

These strange religions are either very mystical wierd religions, or were created as joke religions.

These include:

The Church of Shrek
Morgan Freemanism
Muppet Worship
The Temple of Chuck Norris
Cult of the Supreme Llama
And many others

In the Neo-Confederate States of America, these religions are very rare, but some do practice them.

Excelism (ekselije'ha) believes that reality is a game and worship the player. The religion is not native to Rejistania but originated in Kaze Progressa.

Da~e Christianity is a native Christian denomination with rather peculiar ideas. Situ (his pre-conversion name is unknown) Day was foreign a missionary who fell sick of a fever and saw God in that state. Da~eists believe that huge parts of the bible are corrupted by Satan, reject a triune God and refuse to have their names stored in databases.

Yocastaism that worships the Queen of Vallermoore as a goddess, once a major religion in it's own right, now lowered to a cult. Mainly harmless. Several thousand strong.

A branch of Ponyism that worships Nightmare Moon, two thousand strong or so. Again, mostly harmless.

And then we have the dangerous cults.

The Cult of Discordism and the Cult of Ma-O both cause as much trouble as they can in the belief that to do so will bring their Gods to the mortal world, whilst the Rame Tep cult murders people with darts that cause horrible hallucinations.

The Autonomous Meiji Province of Japan has recently seen a surge of Alpaca Worshipers after an influx of Honorary Joseon Citizens from Peru. It is also popular amongst the young people in the Joseon Peninsula, especially amongst the middle class. The religion involves waiting for an Alpaca Prophet who is said to possess the power of complete assimilation of other Alpacas. There are memes circulating around cyberspace. A certain game for the Eun-Ah-Soo Operating System Phone is said to have inspired it.

Cyber Solipsism is also a recent religion. It's the idea that not only does reality not exist, reality does exist separate from our own and we are simply a simulated Universe. But given that these people treat good deeds as "points", it's very harmless and actually does some good for a local community. Too bad that the tenets of the religion, including praising the Overlords (those who run the simulation), are incredibly complex and completely insane.

Exceptionalism was a pretty weird religion. First off, everything must be made "Pure" by painting it white, then you had to inform the masses that anyone not part of the church was going to hell, and finally, they taught that women shouldn't exist!

Postby Greater Aztec Empire » Mon Jun 09, 2014 10:00 pm

Any religions other than Toyecnemiliztli are considered as the strange religions in the Greater Aztec Empire.

Image


Since the 13th century, the people have been worshipping the pantheons of Toyecnemiliztli through a series of human sacrifices.
Such spiritual comfort makes them consider any other religions which worship different kind of pantheons as the strange religions.
Such spiritual comfort also makes them consider any other religions which practice different kind of worship as the strange religions.
The major religions of the world such as Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Shenism are considered as the strange religions.

There is a term known as the "Aztec state pluralism" which is the mixture between pluralism, monism, and Toyecnemiliztli.
According to pluralism, the government liberates its people to embrace any religions according to their belief.
According to monism, the government can encourage its people to become a devout follower of their religions.
According to Toyecnemiliztli, all religions must give homage to the pantheons, and the pantheons will protect them in return.

Fortunately, there have been no reported conflicts between Toyecnemiliztli and the strange religions.
Unfortunately, there have been several conflicts between Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Shenism.

The vast majority of Kiravians are either Christians, members of monotheïstic religions, or both. But in a nation of 17 billion souls, there are bound to be a few souls whose owners ahve placed them in the hands of some more unusual spiritual traditions. Let's look at a few of them in brief.

Rusdocism appears to be loosely based off of Jungian psychoänalysis. It is a vaguely monotheïst/monist religion that worships a "pantheon" of cultural and psychological archetypes that its adherents believe to represent aspects of a transcendental human collective subconsciousness.

Tritonism is a small, largely unorganised henotheïstic religious movement that originated in Kiravia's hardcore techno scene. Tritonists worship a deïty supposedly based on the Greek god Triton, who they believe reveals spiritual and existential truths subliminally through hardcore music.

The Shakti natives of Taigalon (a Kiravian territory) believe that the Earth is a curved manifold, and that all warmth and life emanates from the South, while dead souls reside in the frozen North.

There is a small religious movement based in Niyasca that holds former Kiravian Prime Executive Eridan Vrihtur to be a prophet.

Celiandotism is a small but ancient sect that believes that the Creator, whom they worship as the Supreme Intelligence, is revealed in the movements of the stars. Modern Celiandotists continue to seek knowledge of the Creator through modern astronomy/astrophysics, mathematics, physics, and, to a lesser extent, other natural sciences.

Strange religions are frowned upon in our nation. But one religion remained, although it is discouraged. Often called "The Numeral Belief", people believed that by eating, sleeping or doing whatever by a certain time or number will bring good vibes (like if you woke up at 10, ate lunch by 10 spoonfuls, took 10 minutes to go to destination, etc.) Hardcore believers worship infinity.

One of the known strange religion present in Cerverza is called Pastafarianism. It is a carbohydrate-based religion that mainly focuses on pasta and noodle-like food

Some people take it seriously, which leads to Unicornism. Originally a parody religion, some atheists who believed in unicorns believed in it and began to worship the Invisible Pink Unicorn. The Invisible Pink Unicorn is a common symbol for homosexual men, but not for Cerverzian atheists.
