Church of Shula
The Church of Shula is a society of artists whose beliefs are centered around expressing the collective conscious. Church of Shula is not a religion, but they consider themselves (and all others) to be navigating the ongoing concept of creation. C.O.S. believe in an inversion of the duality between light and dark: light is the great seperater, and darkness is unity.

Church of Shula recognizes Apophis to be a figure similar to Jesus Christ. While ancient Egyptians feared this figure, Shulans see Apophis as representing inspiring dreams, the fear of mortality that drives us to experience life, and the search for higher understanding of the universe.

Church of Shula is rumored to have been active since the early 1960's, activated by a man named Lyndsay Murray. Virtually nothing is known about this character, but Shulans rumor him to have been an incarnation of Apophis. There are no official texts, but Lyndsay Murray began to spread Shula awareness through a document called The Shulacon. The Shulacon is a psuedo religious history that is open for editing to anyone who seeks it out. The cardinal belief of the Church of Shula is "create, but question creationism"
