Altman Be Praised...

"For two hundred years, Unitology has sought the truth. When Michael Altman spread his word, few people believed him. The government tried to discredit him! And when that didn't work, they killed him and said it was an accident! But we also know he was telling the truth! For two centuries, we and our forefathers kept the faith and our belief in his words. Now finally we have proof - that we have been right all along. You've all see the vidlogs by now, you all know what they found out there. Here on this very planet, we found - Another Marker!".

Beliefs

-The Marker

The basis of the religion are the Markers, artifacts of unknown origin and purpose. Oddly, many scientists, even Altman himself, have little idea of the Marker's true purpose and origin. The meaning of the inscriptions about the Marker had puzzled Unitologists for years. Unitologoists believe that the inscriptions on the marker are a message that will reveal the true origin and meaning of human life.

Death/Convergence

The Unitologists refuse to allow their member's bodies to be buried or cremated, instead preserving them aboard space ships. The reason for this is the belief that a human body must be untouched after death, as it is the "vessel" for the member's convergence. "Convergence" is the belief that upon death, if the human body has been kept intact and the Unitologist has lived an unselfish life, that all the bodies will one day be reborn with ascended spiritual and physical prowess, and will live in unity with his or her other members as a single community. It is heavily encouraged by members that they keep their bodies in the best shape possible upon death.

Despite their supposedly peaceful exterior, The Church is noted for having many cult like features including ritual sacrifices and mass suicides in times of great religious frenzy. The teachings to embrace death further enhances these. It is also revealed that the Necromorph outbreak on the Sprawl was the intent of the Church, as a team was sent to the station to kill themselves near the influence of the Marker, thereby becoming the first Necromorphs there.
