Kalosecclesiaism

==Background==
Kalosecclesiaism is a monotheistic religion that originates out of Ahalia. The religion's only god is Theoágios,(also known as The Father of the World, The Creator of Life, and The Lord of Many.) who had created life and the Zero World, known as Pathagamenon, of which the events in the Scriptures of the Holy take place. The capital of Kalosecclesiaism is in Lithiona, Islivaria and in the High Church of Lithuona.

==Basic Doctrine==
====How man came into existence====
The story of how we came into being is detailed here:
"In the beginning, there was no light, nor darkness there was only nothing. Then a being named Theoágios created the world. He used his tears for water, his hair for grass, and his excrement for mountains and ground. From this he created the ancient world of Pathagamenon, but although there was now a world, with light and all glorious things. For there was no life, for there was no life to give thanks and praise to the Father of the World. So, the father of the world created the first humans from his thumbs. Their names, Atticus and Euthalia. Thus, the Father of the World and the Creator of Life welcomed their existence with, “bring praise to me, and your existence will be made simple and for you!” So, Atticus and Euthalia knew the only way to bring glory to the father of the world and Creator of life was to produce more worshippers for them. So, over the next 1,000 years the world was populated by Atticus and Euthalia and their offspring. Soon a dark force brewed from deep below in Kólasi. This being named Kakó convinced a third of the population that he was greater and wiser than Father of the World and Creator of Life. This started a war between the followers of Theoágios, The Father of the World, and Creator of life, and the evil and detestable followers of Kàkos. This war (spiritually) continues to this day. The first humans at the age of 1000 died from heartbreak and shame, seeing their children fight each other and knowing they failed to achieve their mission to produce new humans to praise the Father of the World, and the Creator of life. The followers without a leader now as a result of Atticus’s death declared Theoágios to be the lord of the followers hence Theoágios  new title was given to him by his followers as the Lord of Many. While Kakós was given his only title Lord of Little. His followers continue to worship Kakó though other religions. The followers of Kakó were cursed by the Lord of Many upon death to cast down to Kólasi. These people became the Kataraménos, who are grotesque and deformed looking humans. These beings cause chaos in the world. Thus, the Creator of Life, took another third of humanity and made them into the Ypresafidei, who would defend the followers of the Lord of the Many from the Kataraménos. However, the followers began to do things the Lord of Many disagreed with. Such as performing sacrifices." - The Scriptures of the Holy, Act I
==== Theoágios ====
The Lord of Many, Father of the World, and The Creator of Life are the same god but are simple titles that refer to him and his actions. The Lord of Many watches over humanity and acts in the daily lives of the common person. The Father of the World is a loving and just god who shines his love upon humanity though, the sun, good harvest, and simple to great victories. This is only achieved by praising his name and the name of his son, which if praise in the eyes of both The Son and Father sufficiently, prayers will be answered. However, one side of the Creator of Life is good, merciful, just, and loving. Another side of the Lord of Many is harsh, and wrathful. Thus, if the Holidays of Kalosecclesiaism are not observed, The Lord of Many will become and enraged and do whatever punishment he thinks is justified. Therefore, we praise his name every Iméra.
====Palrigorus ====
Palrigorus is the son of The Lord of Many and acted as his vessel. Across Pathagamenon Palrigorus performed miracles, such as the Miracle of Politheosa: "Then Palrigorus spoke and embraced the crying Giove, “Giove, for now i have heard plentiful. Come, and follow me to the farm and I will bless thy seeds.” So Giove, and the Quorum of Palrigorus went to Gioves farm for which had for the past month not yielded good harvests, then Palrigorus touched the ground and then quickly all the seeds grew to maximum size and were plentiful. For all the people gave thanks to Palrigorus" - Scripture of the Holy, Act I of the Second Script. He done these deeds both voluntarily and acting as a vessel of The Father of the World. Then the Imperials who worshipped false gods killed him as described here: "Palrigorus was jailed in the smallest and most uncomfortable of cells, he was starved for so long he looked as if skin was pulled upon a skeleton. Palrigorus then was chained and was taken to a stake in the middle of Policaligus and tied to the stake. The Imperial guard brandished their spears and began to stab into the chest of Palrigorus, the guards made jeers such as “Hail to the Savior” “Glory to the Prince of Many!” as they proceeded to stab and prod at the screaming Palrigorus. Then a guard went up to the tortured Palrigorous and fileted the stomach of Palrigorus and ripped his entrails from him. The entrails falling to the floor as hard as rain and like stones falling from a stone brick wall, through the tumultuous agony Palrigorus uttered the words: “Father, forgive them, for they know not………. IT IS FINISHED!” - Scriptures of the Holy, Act III of the Second Script. 
====Ascension and Pathagamenon====
Pathagamenon was originally destroyed by the Lord of Many after the execution of Palrigorus as described here: "This action although prophesied enraged the Father of the World, so much it began to thunder, as light cracked across the sky the world began to quake, and all were now frightened and worrisome, they now know that they have greatly angered the Creator of Life. From the skies came a massive ancient warrior welding spear on a chariot, and in a wrath filled spree, the Lord of Many slaughtered the Human race, until there was none left." - Scriptures of the Holy, Act III of the Second Script. However, the Father of the World had realized the mistake he had made and wept and from these tears, Jagdas, Rathnir and Eldham were created. Then from these worlds: "The Lord of Many now remade humans and had opted instead of punish humans for their transgressions and then forgive them, The Father of the World decided to forgive his creations first and never to punish in such a way as the destruction of Pathagamenon again. However, knowing that humanity must be able to be truly saved the Creator of Life made Pathagamenon a place where he, The Lord of Many and those who were devoted to The Lord of Many and his son enjoy joyful eternal lives." The only way to achieve this status of eternal life is through a process called Ascension. In which those who closely followed the 17 Commandments will be sent to a rebuilt Pathagamenon.
