Remonitionist Multiversalism (RM) is an artistic movement which began as an offshoot of Remonitionism.

Influences

Remonitionists

By the time Remonitionism entered Tricin, it was already quite inclusive and liberal; the narrative had already changed in Irta from "non-Christians need salvation" to "non-Christians have equally valid paths to salvation". Catholics like to joke that Remonitionists convert themselves rather than converting others.

Tricin

After migrating to Tricin, Remonitionists start to expand their universalism to other universes too -- one result is that there are four (sometimes five) sacred texts that Remonitionists read in Tricin:

  • Old Testament
    • interpreted in a quasi-Gnostic/Marcionite way? God's repeated vindictiveness is a metaphor for dukkha and reveals Him to be less than ultimate; He's a problem for Christs to solve.
    • Some abandon the Old Testament altogether because of its anti-pluralism
    • Esther and Song of Songs are not interpreted as being about YHWH
  • Fornloíd
  • a Nurian Buddhist text
  • a "New Testament" (a set of "Gospels"?) specifically authored/canonized by Trician Remonitionists, very different from our New Testament -- it not only mentions many Christs, it has a "cyclical" eschatology very different from Revelation (addressed to churches in Earth, Tricin and many other universes).

Some RMC churches read the Imthumitil too. These texts are commonly read in a special "New Trician" translation, though other translations are read too in some churches.

RMC factions

Various degrees of Trician influence; some of them are very influenced by Snielism

Some RMC adherents practice a kind of "early Christian reconstructionism" where they take the Gnostic and Greco-Roman elements so far that they start worshipping Greek gods. Some practice Irta-Semitic reconstructionism or neopaganism; for example they may worship the ravens Hūgin 'he who utters/contemplates' (from h-g-y) and Mūnin 'he who counts/computes' (from m-n-y) from Crannish mythology, representing verbal/emotional and quantitative reasoning respectively. (or should the ravens be invented by Crannish neopagans?)

Art in RMC

RMC has produced a lot of psychedelic and New Age style art in Cualand. Some common motifs:

  • biblically accurate angels show up in church architecture.
  • Lotuses are another common motif, from the Buddhist influence on Remonitionism.
  • Infinities and very large numbers

One Trician symbolism used by the RMC is the recursive helix, inspired by the transfinite ordinal hierarchy (which is what Nurian Buddhist symbolism uses in Canon Tricin). This reflects the "transtheistic" belief that there is no one ultimate level of the infinite, nor are Gods or Christs ultimate, unlike what is taught in traditional theistic religions. (cf. how Buddhism mentions very big numbers).
