Esperanto is an important liturgical language in Lõis, used by almost all sects of Homaranismo, which in Lõis is a relatively prominent religion, with about 30-40 million adherents. There is, however, disagreement between Homaranist sects on whether Esperanto should be promoted as a vernacular language – the Localist sect which constitutes about two-thirds of Lõisian Homaranismo strictly believes in adopting the local language, with Esperanto used primarily as a symbolic liturgical language. In areas where other sects of Homaranismo are practiced, there are Esperanto-based creoles which exist in a diglossic relationship with standard Esperanto.
