| Later, the originally quasi-rationalist philosophy of the Imthumăytil had branched out into many variants, thanks to the Jeodganite Revolution. The biggest religious split in Wen Dămea is by class: Mărotłism (upper-class Ngronaism) and popular Ngronaism(s) including the formerly largest sect of it, Jeodganism. Accordingly Mărotłites stereotyped popular Ngronaists as superstitious, vindictive, fanatical wishful thinkers; popular Ngronaists viewed Mărotłites as cynical, self-rationalizing, morally blind, privileged people.

| Some characteristics of popular Ngronaism:
| |
| * The Second Mover is a much more theistic entity than in Mărotłism. People often attempt to access the goddess through prayer or bargaining, in hopes of warding off evil or misfortune.
| |
| * A belief in some form of karma, usually paradise for the virtuous and hell for evildoers -- often aimed at the "establishment" who are portrayed as "karma denialists", i.e. denial about the consequences they'll face for oppressing the common man
| |
| * more emphasis on social justice for the poor (?)
