Name       = Bidnerism |

The religious occult following of Michael Bidner, in which devotees indulge themselves into studying his philosophical principles.

Founder(s):

Although Bidner himself presented most of the ideas of Bidnerism, Anil Donkers was the first student of Bidner and recorded most of his teachings in texts, mostly in the form of dialogues. Donkers is known to have established the first Acadamy of Bidner. Some remains of this acadamy still exist in athens today. The relationship between these two important figures is often compared to the relationship of Socrates and Plato.

The Principles:

-The "Possibly" Theory. The philosophy similar to Taoist beliefs, it focuses mainly on achieving a clear and subtle mind, by answering all questions with the vaguest answer possible. "I find that if I'm as vague as possible, I can't be wrong"- Michael Bidner. Similar to this theory is the practice of "What if" where bidnerists suggests ridiculous and surreal concepts and contexts in order to uncover flaws in ancient and modern philosophic teachings. In response to Immanuel Kant's Categorical Imperative Michael Bidner said: "What if you didn't kill someone, the world would explode?" This is a shining example of the practice of "What if".

-The Pixy Theory The belief that pixies are interfering with the progression of modern Mathematics. "The pixies are interfering with the Math!"- Michael Bidner. Pixies are also said to govern the properties metals and metal compounds. During a science experiment where a flame was put to metal Michael Bidner said "You can almost hear the steel pixies screaming". This theory is usually contrasted with modern atomic theory, in fact Michael Bidner, although not associated with the evangelical church, is considered to be the leading theorist against the ideas of scientist such as, Neils Bohr, Ernest Rutherford and many others.

-Pre-Christian Anti Paganism and the study of Witchcraft. The triumph over all sorcery and mystical things (ex. Black Magic).

-The study of ancient fighting arts and the way of the Medieval Templar.

-Making oneself uninvolved from society and peers. Michael Bidner is known to have actually not learned any of the names of his peers during his early life. "I tend not to engage in social interactions".
