Hi, here is a new page on our new religion. Here is our religion.

Name of religion: Coretarism Important figure: Coretara Two basic facts/statements about this person: 1. People believed he is the fire god, and is the one who brought fire to this world. 2. Coretara doesn't look like he has a body, because his body is all fire, he doesn't need water to survive. Place of worship: Terasal (It is a temple, exept they call it a terasal) Two statements describing the place of worship: 1. The front of the terasal always face towards the east, the rising sun, because they also believe Coretara made the sun. 2. The colors of a terasal are only yellow, orange and red, sometimes green or blue (the colors of fire). Major beliefs: 1. Coretara brang fire to the world so we have fire to use. 2. They also believe Coretara can change into a shape of any animal, even dragons and unicorns, and he is immortal. Basic Laws: 1. You can't eat meat or kill animals because you need to appreciate life and not kill. 2. They are warrior monks, but they can only fight for defending themselves or others. Holiday or religious celebraton/festival: People celebrate the first day of a new year. Description of holiday/festival: People believe Coretara made fire come on the earth and help cook food. There is always a parade involved which someone dresses like Coretara and marches down with other gods like the water god, the wind god, the animal god, the plant god, and the electricity god, there are also much more others. But Coretara the fire god, is always the main god. //Why does people believe in this religion?// There is a story about a great big flood that nearly flooded the whole world, but Coretara saved the whole world by using his fire skills and evaporating the water.

Please give me feedback and say if I should delete things, or add things. Thanks! -Ray Ray, are people still going to be Christains, AND we have this religion or is this the one and only religion we will have? Also, who IS the water, wind, animal, plant and electricity god/goddess? And when IS the first and last day of the Coretain year? If you are working on that, my aplogies. If you are, how about the water god is a goddess, and her name is Yamima? Alanna People are also going to be Christains. We don't need to know the water, wind, animal, plant, and electricity god/goddess names. The first day of the year is January 1st. And it is //Coretarism//, not //Coretain//. -Ray Ray, when I said Coretain, I meant someone who believes in Coretara. Also, you DO need to know who the water, wind, animal, plant and electricity god/goddess names. Because are you just going to call them Water God, Plant Goddess, Wind God, Electricity God and Coreata or something like that? That's so lame! -Alanna P.S. When is the end of the year, and you CAN make up new months. We don't need the god and goddess names because they aren't **that** important. And the Coretarism year is equal to what we are using. -Ray Ray, you do not get it. The names of gods and goddesses ARE important, because in EVERY religion, all the gods and goddesses have names! Think of Hinduism, the main goddess is "Vasthi". If the Hindus just called her "Mother Goddess" in their prayers, that wouldn't be correct. Also, it is considered very rude to give a god/goddess no name. You may be an Aphisist but that does not mean that not all gods and goddesses need names!!! Alanna >:-( Yes, some religions do give their god names, but that doesn't mean that coretarism need to name the gods, not all religion give their gods names, just like christian, God, is just called God, even though his son is Jesus. and in the "Tau" religion, they believe in so many gods that they just call them "wood god" "pencil god" " water god" "dumptruck god" and all sorts of names like that.-Wayne Actually Wayne, we call "God" all kinds of names. Like Jeovah, King of the Universe, King of Kings, Prince of Peace, The Holy Shepard, the Lamb, Abba, King of Jews, The Creator, The Almighty One, I could go on forever! Also, are you sure about they call their gods "Pencil God", "Dumptruck God" and stuff like that? That doesn't sound very suitiable. The aneciet Egyptains had hundreds of thousands of gods/godesses, and they named every single one. And where is "Tau" religion? Also, I don't think that people would give thanks to God about dumptrucks and pencils... Besides, there aren't that many gods in Coretarism, and if Ray doesn't think that the names and gods/godesses aren't important, why doesn't he make Coretara the god of EVERYTHING!? Alanna

Good point, but in some religions, they don't really name there gods, sometimes, they just call them "ocean god" or something like that. that's all i have to say. Remember, this is our own religion, we don't need to name all the gods if we don't want to, right? Fine, to settle this, tommaro we will take a poll on who would want to give gods names and who wouldn't want to ok?-Wayne Ok, first, I am not saying they don't have names. It is just irrevelant, we don't need to tell them what their names are, but they still have names. When Wayne said "pencil god", and "dumptruck god", he is just making an example, it is not really real. -Ray Oh. You didn't answer my question. Where is "Tau" Religion?-Alanna
