C

  • cenny (from Greek κοινωνία): a Mangean place of worship.

K

  • kowl'eerí'na (pl. kowl'eerí'ni, literally 'beautification [of a prayer]'): A Shalaian liturgical poem, often as part of a D/s kink ritual. Melodies for kowl'eerí'ni are set to either a solo voice with accompaniment or a choir; they are in some ways similar to Ashkenazi Jewish liturgical melodies but employ more exotic tunings (like JI and 31-tone equal temperament) and rhythms (such as Scotch snaps). Art music set to those liturgical poems also exists.

M

  • Mangeanism (placeholder name): A pre-Ascent Abrahamic religion stemming from an early Christian sect. It considers "St. Jesus of Nazareth" to be its founder but he's neither divine nor the messianic king (Messiah ben David) prophesied in the Hebrew Bible. Its sacred texts are called the Scrolls: the Old Scrolls (Hebrew Bible), the Middle Scrolls and the New Scrolls. It also has a recorded oral tradition of Saints and interpretations of Scroll teachings. Its liturgical language is a quasi-Old French.
