Cult of Dredd

The Cult of Dredd (Also referred to as "Dreddism"), is a splinter branch of the Roman Catholic Church which believes that god has manifested itself as Canadian rapper Freddie Dredd. Although a small minority in the overall Catholic world, it was the state-enforced religion of the Great Euphoria Empire (Nova), and the state-enforced religion of Euphoria (Aurora).

The cult largely follows the teachings of their head and first prophet Dornan, and most of the beliefs are over-exaggerated interpretations of Dornan's ideals. Most, if not all, of the religion is centered around both Euphoric Empires.

Overview

Mythos

Most religious texts describe a tale of 2 homosexual marriages which eventually led to the revelation of Freddie to Dornan.

The two marriages took place in the Columbian capital of Achilla (now Kanye) and both were in some way related to player Kamikokoro (now kamdropz). According to the Dreddist Bible; "...At high noon, on harvest season, BigBroPro0425 and Kamikokoro, were beautifully engaged together, the celebrations were plentiful but shortly after the ceremony, BigBroPro0425 disappeared, never to be seen again..." "...Kami fell into a deep depression, locking himself in his hotel room, before looking for answers in DeadlyFox2003." "...Kami married DeadlyFox2003 on a cloudy winter day, they were proclaimed by the local priest, Dornan, but then a sudden flash of light emanating from Spain tore the marriage apart...".

Evidence of the marriages taking place has been founded in very old scrolls, however, the disappearance of BigBroPro, has been heavily debated, as could still be found at the time of Aurora, which was about a year after the fact. The "sudden ray of light" mentioned has now been considered by many historians to have been the threat of the excommunication of DeadlyFox, which was a Roman Catholic, a religion which shuns homosexual marriages.

Dreddism is currently regarded as a statement against the Roman Catholic Church, as it virtues the opposite of traditional Catholic teaching. Most of the cult's virtues have also been in some regards influenced by Dornan's own way of thinking, as he was famously a fan of Freddie Dredd way before the cult's founding. Most of it has been seen as Dornan's way of spreading his harsh ideals onto the server.
