Docism

History

No one knows exactly when or where Docism started. Some say it began when Discord user Swordrist created The Cult of the Royal Guard server and placed Doc as it’s Emperor. Others say it began when Doc left Discord after finding employment in the real world. However it started, it is agreed that it gained traction on the Eyeperial Ruling Council Discord; specifically in the House of Holy channel.

After the founding of the church, Bishop Hans worked to discover and translate the Book of Doc, Docism’s holy writings, in order to share them with the Church. There is another section of the wiki that contains all the translated portions from the Book of Doc that have currently been discovered. (Link)

Docism After Doc

Docism gained mainstream popularity after Doc left Discord, for what was originally going to be a permanent arrangement. Everyone was mourning the loss of Doc, and Docism provided the support they needed during their grieving. If Doc had never left, Docism would not have expanded as much as it did.

After about a month, Doc returned to find that Docism had exploded, and not just on the Eyeperial Council, but all over the Allied Discords. The Cult of Meebur Discord, which was for the followers of Traditional Meeburism had even chosen to recognize Docism as one of the three core religions in Meeburism.

The House of Holy

The House of Holy is a Discord channel on the Eyeperial Ruling Council. It’s head priestess is Amy, who gives services every Saturday in which she reads from the Book, hears confessions, and teaches the word of Doc, along with Dumbass, the other preist of the church.

The Eyeperial Ruling Council Discord is the only server to date to have a church channel. The introduction of the Church to the Discord Server on June 12 2020 catapulted the Eyeperial server into the limelight, and brought Discord religions into the forefront of many people’s lives.

Modern Day Docism

Modern day Docism consists mostly of church services, book readings, confessions, and prayer. It is estimated that there are approximately 16 followers of Doc, many of which partake in the weekly church service on the Eyepire server. Some of it’s core values preach of brotherhood amongst all Star Wars fans, honorable behavior on the internet, and taking care of oneself.

Docism is widely accepted across many Discords, with the notable exception of the Galactic Council, which is notable for it’s oppression of various religions, political ideals, and philosophies, including, but not limited to: Monke, Communism, and Big Chungus.

Docism will live on as long as there is someone left who remembers the values of the religion, and is open to worshipping.
