Calpernism

Calpernism is a monotheistic religion centered around the life and teachings of Calpernia, the daughter and prophet of God.

Beliefs
There are many differences of interpretation and opinion of the Holy Book and sacred tradition on which Calpernism is based. Because of these irreconcilable differences in theology, Katholians and Rochonites often deny that members of certain other branches are Calpernian.

Katholian Church
The Katholian Church the first and largest of the Calpernian Churches. It is headed by the Père/Mère, who the Katholians believe serves as the voice of God.

The Katholians tend to be the most conservative of the Calpernian Churches, believing that their way is the only true way. This has led them to conflicts such as the Crusades and the Hundred Year War.

Church of Rochon
The Church of Rochon separated from the Katholian Church during the Second Era over fundamentally differing interpretations of Calpernia and her teachings. The Church of Rochon teaches that Calpernia had no divine blood and that God does not interfere with the mortal realm.

The Church of Rochon also believes in the peaceful spreading of the Calpernian faith and tolerance for other religions.
