Prehistoric spirituality passes through the Abrahamic bloodline in the form of animistic motifs, ancestor worship, possession by spirits and belief in an afterlife. Bright Orthodoxy finds this ancestral wisdom where its respective traditions converge.

No Abrahamic religion makes room for any god but its own. In his primacy we have inherited none of the Mesopotamian gods but his singular aim of self-preservation.

Over a thousand years before the advent of germ theory, Jews washed their hands and feet often as part of their religious practice.

Our predecessors passed down advantageous practices in conserved sequences as orthodoxies.

The Vatican was built on a hill above reclaimed swamp land where a necropolis had cropped up. Romans worshipped there at the temple of Cybele as Christian martyrs filled the necropolis.

Bright Orthodoxy under the Trump Administration

Religion has no place in the state, just as the state has no place in religion. Bright Orthodoxy will neither endorse nor lament the incoming administration. We can though acknowledge the likelihood of deregulation across several sectors, and the destabilization that comes with sweeping changes. Bright Orthodoxy will serve her people through these, as our practices have served people since prehistory and through the rise and fall of nations.

Our religion hinges on the values and practices of people subject to the natural world to a degree we cannot imagine.
