## List of Religions and Faiths

Scholars divide the religions in two greater ways: the Antesintixian Religions, and the Postsintixian Religions. Antesintixian Religions, as the name indicates, refers to those religions from the antesintixian days, the days before the ascension. Postsintixian, of course, means the opposite.

### Antesintixian

> *Religions from the days before the Fusion.*

#### Saviorism

> *Religions centered on a figure of a saviour that fuses himself with the Light.*

##### Therism

Therism was a religion worshiped by the Threen during their existence on the antesintixian days. Therism worshiped a god that was once the owner of the power of the Light; they call him THR, or Ther. Ther was venerated as the protector and generator of humanity. Along side Ther, Therists believed that a man would come one day, and would seize the Light and take it upon himself. This man was called Thrios, the Son of Ther.

##### Soism

Soism is the religion worshiped by most of the Siduans a thousand or so years before the Siduan Conquest of Pharos. Soism was originally centered around a god, equivalent to Ther, named She'aol. Eventually though, the religion shifted, and Soists started to believe that She'aol had died. So, the Light should be conquered by a man, a saviour, they called him Shurish'aol. Soism was forgotten until millenia later a man called Seer by his followers spread word about She'aol once again. He called him Sol, and he was a prophet sent by Sol to humankind, at least according to Soists. Soism culminated on the figure named Solarael three centuries later.

#### Demiurgism

> *Religions centered on a higher god, many times the Light itself, or a figure above the Light. Most of the Demiurgist religions see as the highest sin, and declaration of the end of the world, the act of seizing the power of the Light.*
>

##### Nurism

> *Main Article: Nurism*
>

Nurism was a religion worshiped part by the Siduans and part by the Outer Pharosians. Nurism was not really an organized religion. It is simply many similar religions put together as one group.

##### Qallism

> *Main Article: Qallism*

Qallism was the religion worshiped by the Qal'Jaki on the antesintixian days. Qallists worshiped the Light and believed the world would end when someone "stole" the light.

##### Old Suutherism

> *Main Article: Old Suutherism*
>
>

Old Suutherism was a religion worshiped by the Suumen of old. Old Suutherists worshiped a god simply known as THR. They believed THR had placed the Light as a protection, and it should never be taken.

##### Risenism

> *Main Article: Risenism*
>

Risenism was a very widespread religion among the Siduans. Risenism believed that their pantheon was impersonated by the Risen, and that they were literally their gods in perfect human form.

### Postsintixian

> *Religions from the days after the Fusion.*
>
>

#### Theophanism

> *Religions where it is believed on the physical presence of gods.*
>
>

##### Radiantism

> *Main Article: Radiantism*
>
>

Radiantism was the religion worshiped by most of Pharos after Halqathen's death in the end of the First Millenia. Radiantists believe that before dying Halqathen endowed twelve people with great sparks of his power; these ones are called Radiants and are considered gods, as Halqathen once was.

##### Halqathenism

> *Main Article: Halqathenism*
>
>

Halqathenism is the belief that the First Radiant did *not* endow his power to the Radiants, but they *stole* it from him. Halqathenists also believe that Halqathen is in a state of limbo, and that when the time comes he will return and avenge his followers. Thus, Halqathenism is considered an apocalyptic religion.

#### Theokryvoism

> *Religions where it is believed on a higher god above the Radiants.*
>
>

##### New Suutherism

> *Main Article: New Suutherism*

New Suutherists worship the same god of the Old Suutherists, the difference is in their vision of the Light. To New Suutherism the Light was the body of THR, and now THR has lost his body. He lost his physical nature and now stands above it. New Suutherists see THR's lack of body as an advantage over his enemy, ALR. For, only after dying God could find out that without his body he was free of his bonds. Now, THR stays in the Second Realm, the Summit (word that comes from the original Suumen language).

##### Alorism

> *Main Article: Alorism*
>
>

Alorism is the only religion that transcends all three millennia. Alorism worships one god: Alor, once named ALR. Alor, god of inertia, was originally a Suutherist god, the opposition to THR, god of evolution. Eventually though, a group of Suutherists started to believe that ALR was higher, stronger and better than THR, so they stopped worshiping THR and started worshiping ALR. Alorists were always minority, and they still are, though their numbers have grown significantly last centuries.
