The Remonition (remonish or Irta Latin remonere is an obsolete in-universe synonym for 'to protest') was a schism from the Catholic Church (and eventually, from what we think of as mainstream Pauline Christianity) which began with the observation that the ontological Trinity is not explicitly taught in the New Testament. The First Remonition was an anti-trinitarian movement and also rejected much of the philosophy that Trinitarian doctrine was based on; the Remonition without qualification refers to the First and Second Remonitions combined. The Second Remonition saw the influx of (Mahayana-like) Buddhist ideas -- starting with Aeno Michaelidh's translation of the Pali Canon -- and the rejection of the then-Christian God as ultimate; a Christ was superior to all Gods. The sole faction that rejected the Second Remonition was a quasi-Spinozism (i.e. a form of metaphysical monism) and eventually contributed to the Irtan counterpart to the Enlightenment.
Religious Remonitionists believe there have been several Christs throughout history (inspired by bodhisattvas); some are legendary and are worshipped like pagan gods especially in Hivantish societies.
For Earthlings, Remonitionism can appear very New Age-ish.
Legacy
Irta Thirty Years' War
In Irta, the Thirty Years' War was a war fought mainly in our France and Britain. The two sides were:
- Catholics: France, Ireland, Italy
- Non-Catholics: Azalic Spain, parts of present-day Riphea and Hivantulunn, Maghreb, the Thurs
(The 2nd Remonition had already happened.)
The Azalic English obtained all of Ireland's continental territory; then they fled to Britain after the French took some of the territory.
