Understanding the Church of Axiom
The following questions explain our worldview, our faith, and how reason, science, and meaning coexist within the Church of Axiom.
What is the Church of Axiom?
The Church of Axiom is a rational spiritual tradition grounded in reason, science, and the understanding that existence itself is divine.
Do you believe in God?
Yes. We understand God not as a supernatural being, but as existence itself — the totality of reality governed by immutable laws.
What kind of God does the Church of Axiom believe in?
Our understanding aligns with the God of Spinoza: infinite, impersonal, and identical with the laws of nature, logic, and causality.
Is God separate from the universe?
No. God is not separate from the universe. God is the universe, its structure, and the principles by which it exists and unfolds.
Does God intervene in human affairs?
No. Reality operates according to consistent laws. Meaning arises through understanding those laws, not through divine intervention.
Is the Church of Axiom compatible with science?
Completely. Science is one of the highest expressions of reverence for God, as it reveals the structure and logic of existence.
Do you reject traditional religion?
We do not reject meaning or tradition, but we reject supernaturalism, dogma, and beliefs that contradict reason or evidence.
What is your Bible?
Our sacred text is The Holy Bible: The Book of Axiom, which presents our theology, ethics, and worldview through reason and clarity.
Where can I get the Book of Axiom?
The Holy Bible: The Book of Axiom is available on Amazon in print and digital formats.
Do you believe in prayer?
We practice contemplation, reflection, and inquiry — not prayer for intervention, but understanding of reality and self.
What is sin in the Church of Axiom?
Sin is ignorance — misunderstanding reality and acting against reason, nature, or human well-being.
Do you believe in an afterlife?
We believe in continuity through causality: our actions ripple forward through reality even after individual consciousness ends.
Is free will real?
We understand freedom as understanding necessity — the more clearly we comprehend causes, the more freely we act.
What is the goal of life?
To understand reality, live in harmony with nature, reduce suffering, and increase collective knowledge and flourishing.
Do you have rituals or services?
Our gatherings focus on discussion, learning, reflection, and shared inquiry rather than supernatural rites.
Is the Church of Axiom political?
No. We advocate reason, ethics, and human dignity, not political ideologies or parties.
Who can join the Church of Axiom?
Anyone committed to reason, evidence, ethical living, and intellectual honesty is welcome.
Do I have to abandon my current beliefs?
No. We invite inquiry, not coercion. Understanding grows through questioning, not force.
Is the Church of Axiom atheist?
No. We affirm God as reality itself — not a denial of God, but a redefinition grounded in reason.
Where should I start?
Begin with The Holy Bible: The Book of Axiom, and approach it with curiosity, logic, and openness.
Did the universe come into existence by chance?
No. The universe is not the result of chance or randomness. Existence follows precise, consistent, and mathematically coherent laws. These laws — the laws of physics — govern all events without exception. In the Church of Axiom, we call these governing principles God. Because reality unfolds according to immutable rules, everything that happens is the necessary result of those laws. In this sense, the universe is fully determined, intelligible, and ordered.
