Wayism

The People of the Way, commonly called Wayism, is a fictional religion from the Andromeda universe.

Wayism was founded by the Anointed, a Magog prophet who amalgamated a number of Human philosophies and religions. Consequently, Wayists refer to "Saint Jesus", "Saint Buddha", etc.

Wayists are led by the successors to the Anointed, an office called the "Keeper of the Way".

The Wayist clergy is divided into several 'orders':

• Merciful Breath – charity workers
• Order of Unity – administrators
• Society of Wisdom – active proselytes and educators
• Whisperers of Truth – contemplators

Rev Bem, a recurring character, is a Wayist.
