Counter-Bazian

Overview

Counter-Bazian is a religious tradition defined in relation to Bazian Orthodox. It draws on the same scriptures and venerates the same prophets, but explicitly rejects the authority and certain teachings of the orthodox Bazian faith. Historical references tie Bazian Orthodoxy to the state religion of the Bazian Empire.

Purpose and Structure

• Orientation: A reforming or oppositional stance toward the authority structure of Bazian Orthodoxy, while sharing scriptural and prophetic foundations.
• Organization: The present account does not describe a hierarchy or central body for Counter-Bazian; it appears as a broad religious category rather than a single ark.

Practices

No specific liturgies, rites, or customs are described in the observed material. Only the doctrinal relationship—shared sources with a rejection of orthodox authority—is stated.

Known Members/Associations

• Relationship to Bazian Orthodoxy: Defined explicitly in opposition to the authority and some teachings of Bazian Orthodox, yet grounded in the same canon and prophets.
