Verse:Hmøøh/Mărotłism

Basic tenets

Second Mover

The Second Mover (Eevo: a Nwtxáh Arn /ə nuˈtʃah ˈaɾ(ə)n/; Classical Windermere: Nutłach Hirath, Clofabosin: ribilzavudan) is a central Talman spiritual concept representing creativity, agency and moral good within humans. In Mărotłism it states that we humans are responsible for "creation" and formulating rules, where "God has left off", even when no one is telling us what to do.

In Snialism, the Second Mover is often called the Nameless (fi mo tsip chum), the idea being that following the Second Mover should not be about pursuing a name or following a predetermined procedure.

Dipăreatü

The originally Mărotłian concept of dipăreatü is a principle of nonviolence, analogous to ahiṃsa in Dharmic religions. (The Windermere word dipăreatü means 'non-aggression'.) Mărotłian dipăreatü allows violence in retaliation or self-defense, or as a punishment for violence - the reasoning was that aggression is so serious that it should be discouraged by any means necessary. There has been much debate among Talman thinkers on exactly how much retributive violence is justified.

Both Mărotłism and strict forms of Ngronaism teach that this implies a moral commandment for vegetarianism (or in modern times, veganism).
