A Conversation with Cometan | S3E6 | Analipsology: The Dogma of Transcension

Cometan delivers a lecture on the central Astronist belief of transcension, also called analipsis or diascension -- the belief that space exploration and the astronomical world both possess the capacity for bringing about the salvation of humankind. This core Astronist belief has recently been elevated to the level of dogma in the Astronist belief system meaning that the notion that space exploration will bring about the salvation of humanity is regarded as an incontrovertible principle in Astronism, a decision that was not lightly made and not without reservation or hesitancy but that was regarded as necessary in order to establish Astronism and the Astronist identity as distinct from all other religions. The discipline of analipsology studies the various components of this salvific endeavour into the astronomical world called transcension, including how the state of transcensia may be achieved, why this is important to human existence, the ethics of transcension, and the various methods that could progress the transcensional process.
