'''Ngronaism''' (''ing-ROH-nay-iz-əm'' (AmE) or ''ing-RON-ay-iz-əm'' (BrE), [[Eevo]]: ''Ñronaivih'' /ˈŋrɔnaivih/, [[Windermere]]: ''Thăngop Ronea'' 'Ngrona religion', [[Clofabosin]]: ''Ronevatran'' 'Ngrona-faith') is a religion founded by Anbirese spiritual leader Emisom Jeodgan.

The religion teaches that the Second Mover (a concept borrowed from Mărotłism) exists in the external world as a goddess named Ñrona, not merely as a force that exists within the mind; she is loving towards all sentient beings. Ngronaists believe that she is in opposition with the First Mover, a demiurge who created the current world with all the evil and suffering in it, and that she will eventually defeat the First Mover and usher in her heaven where all sentient beings who meditated upon her will go and rejoice in her radiance and beauty. | ||

[[Anbirese]] religious reformer Emisom Jeodgan was inspired by old Second Mover writings for his own idea of the Second Mover: He drew up an old Talmic goddess "Ngrona" (Eevo: ''Ñrona'', Anbirese: ''Ngroneo'', from hypothetical [[Tigol]] ''*Ñronae'', from [[Thensarian]] ''Ȝronaeae''), and claimed that she was the Second Mover | [[Anbirese]] religious reformer Emisom Jeodgan was inspired by old Second Mover writings for his own idea of the Second Mover: He drew up an old Talmic goddess "Ngrona" (Eevo: ''Ñrona'', Anbirese: ''Ngroneo'', from hypothetical [[Tigol]] ''*Ñronae'', from [[Thensarian]] ''Ȝronaeae''), and claimed that she was the Second Mover. The First Mover, on the other hand, was an illegitimate demiurge who kept humans in the prison full of death and suffering, and our only salvation was to break out of the prison by any means necessary. | ||

anyway the idea is that sticking to tradition is against the will of the 2nd mover - this is where Jeodgan kinda introduces manichean dualism | |||
regardless of what god or anyone tells or you you should do, the second mover is what has the final say | |||
the god to follow regardless of whether there is a god | |||
Jeodgan might have taken inspiration from ancient 2nd mover writings | |||
Basically Jeodgan's writings could be described as "sci-fi without the tech aesthetic." | |||
