Church of Revelation

“	Welcome to our company's territory.	”
	~ John Paul VI, Patriarch of the Church of Revelation

Church of Revelation is a religious organization, and a minor corporation and faction in Quasimorph.

Background

The Church of Revelation is the largest religious organization in the Solar System. It provides high-quality religious services on a commercial basis. Their main goal is to satisfy the spiritual needs of any individual who seeks revelation and meaning in a world devoid of the foundation of such false concepts as patriotism. The Church of Revelation is aimed at the widest possible audience: from believers seeking salvation to those interested only in the therapeutic aspects of spiritual practice.

The organization sells a variety of religious goods, from ritual objects and amulets to high-tech interfaces for creating personalized religious experiences. They also have a strong presence in the media space, producing educational programs and spiritual excursions where anyone can take the path to revelation according to their tastes - from a gentle existential search to intense mystical practices. For a very high price, the Church of Revelation can organize a pilgrimage to Earth to the preserved holy sites.

The Church has a policy of openness and inclusivity, allowing each person to choose how they wish to engage with their faith. Services are provided in the form of individual rituals as well as mass gatherings held at Church-owned assets throughout the System.

The history of the Church of Revelation originates from several ecumenical movements that sought to unite various religious movements in the mid-21st century. In the chaos of wars, these movements contributed to the centralization of different branches of one ancient religion around a small theocracy in Europe. After the Great Anarchist Revolution, ecumenical movements were forced to adapt to new conditions. This is how the Church of Revelation appeared. It was the first to be formalized as a corporation, taking a dominant position, offering a universal set of rituals and concepts that corresponded to any spiritual needs.
