Theology

Radiak theology is perhaps the most cherished and well-kept secret of our people. If you are familiar with the stories told about us, then you know that secrecy is the stamp of our nation. Therefore, what I reveal here should be held in special regard not only for its contribution toward the scholarly corpus of religious traditions, but as the best and most intimate description of the Radiak nation.

Holy Texts

These are my summaries and explanations of the two holiest texts in the Radiak faith. I eventually hope to transcribe them in their entirety, but understand that I will be using the translation that I grew up with, which may change or omit details relative to other accounts you have inevitably heard about.

Porodzh í Proklyáttya (The Journey and the Curse) —
Spégel Nochí (The Mirror of Night) —

The Liturgical Calendar and Religious Holidays

This calendar follows the one I grew up with, and thus am most familiar with. I am still working to compile its development, uses, and structure.

Sects and Denominations

I will attempt to chroncile the major Radiak sects and denominations. Many Radiaks do not accept the word "denomination" to refer to the various branches of Radiak practitioners, seeing the term as a foreign imposition upon delicate differentiations that arose more organically than denominations of a religion that might've emerged from, say, a virulent schism. I use the word "denomination" for the sake of its familiarity to the Stable eye, but as you read, keep in mind this caveat.
