Prohibition against drugs

Dietary Restrictions

Trembled meat when available; non-trembled meat when no other option is available.

Worshipper Benefits

Common ownership of wealth within families. Wealth is pooled in congregations to give all members access to nurseries, laundromats, communal kitchens, various workshops, and higher education.

Personal Growth

Mental peace. Scholarship.

Hierarchy

Some hierarchy; most power is in individual congregations.

Worshipper Stipulations

If help is asked for, it must be answered two-fold. Membership is available only to decendents of specific families, almost all originally Prophetic Slaves. Converts must marry into one of these families.

Clerical Stipulations

Clergy must be married and have full guardianship of at least one child. Clergy cannot use pooled funds from their congregations; they must depend solely on their family's pooled funds.
