Veritas Vincit/Political Beliefs

The following explains the beliefs of the Veritas when it comes to political matters.

The Duties of its members

The Veritas believe that a member's spiritual duties and realm duties can co exist as long as the realm has not fallen sway to an evil god. As such each member of the religion is free to make their own choices as long as they do not violate the core beliefs and principles of the Veritas, or purposely cause harm to the church. Though the church as an organization will stay out of matters of realm as much as possible, it encourages all members to be active and loyal members to their realms.

Political influence and power

The Veritas believe that a religion should try and remain political neutral when it comes to matter of state. A church that attempts to gain political power will ultimately become corrupt, using that power to gain followers instead of sharing the truth. And followers converted in such a way have no respect for their belief and will in the end try and destroy the religion. As such the Veritas remain neutral when it comes to political matters, instead leaving the judgment to their individual followers.

The only time the Veritas will try and interfer with a realm is when it has become apparent that a realm has fallen under the sway of an evil god. Even then the Veritas will focus on helping the realm spiritually, knowing that if the evil god's sway is broken, it looses all power.
