Over the past 20 or so years, a hyper-reactionary movement has taken root among the super-religious W. Alexandrians, especially in Celstia, [WALESLAND], Wydmoor, and [RUMP STATES]. These heretic movements reject the theological connection between The Stand an the current roster of Hadriarchs and totally deny the same of the Eastern Alexandrian Arch-Warden. These "Protest-Stand" Faiths are a direct challenge to both the religious and secular authorities of the Western faith. They are heavily persecuted wherever they are found, and Odessa is particularly active in exporting Witch Hunters to western Alexandrian states to root out the ""Protest-Stands." The Radicals take a dim view of the Petaran's faith overall and sometimes cause problems even in tolerant areas by murdering Petarans. | Over the past 20 or so years, a hyper-reactionary movement has taken root among the super-religious W.

Additionally, there are several known [[cults]], and frequently [[Alexandrian Heresies|heresies]] spring up across the mainland. Prior to Alexandria's assumption of the Omnity, the world was served by the [[Demi-Pantheon]], who themselves received divinity from the [[Eight Makers]] after the [[Battle of Sacrifice]] that ended the [[First War]]. | ||
