Monastica Wiki:About

This page is used to tell visitors all about Monastica Wiki.

Monastica is a parody religion. The intent is to create a parody religion with serious sounding names and completed holy texts so that atheists and other rabble-rousers can cause havoc in online forums and elsewhere by pretending to be adherents of this religion.

What separates Monastica from other parodies
Monastica is different from other parody religions in that it is designed to be a bit more subtle. We intend to have a fairly large library of religious texts for the Sanctus Libri (our primary holy text) and other sacred texts, complete with some serious sounding believable stuff so that we can confuse people into taking us seriously for some wicked luls. We can use the information in this wiki to have full-blown mock debates with each other on hotly debated religious issues such as homosexuality and abortion. It's also a common tactic of Bible-thumpers and other religious folk to randomly throw out verses to 'prove' something in a debate of some kind for no apparent reason, and we can contradict those verses with our own. Just because.

Other reasons we do this
One of the reasons some of us wanted to create this new parody religion is because of the loss of the IPU holy texts and its dwindling influence. IPU (Invisible Pink Unicorn) used to have loads of holy books filled with verses dedicated to her, but all of the sites holding the texts went down and now very little has been salvaged.
