DENOMINATIONS AT A GLANCE:
Oriental Orthodox = Season 1 only
Faust is gospel. No lore bloat, no magic inflation, just tight character-driven fables.
Eastern Orthodox = Seasons 1–2 (excluding Canterlot Wedding)
Accepts some expansion, but Cadance is heresy. Season 2 is valid until Faust leaves.
Roman Catholic = Seasons 1–5 (excluding S5 finale)
Values creative apostolic succession. Still respects structure. Season 5 is Vatican II.
Mainline Protestants = Seasons 1–7
Reformationists. Accepts character evolution and modernization, but rejects bureaucracy and narrative decay.
Evangelicals = Seasons 1–9
All scripture is valid. Every character and episode is part of the living gospel of friendship.
Gnostics = Season 0
The real truth was never animated. Everything else is a corrupted shell.
Charismatics = Season X
The show is alive. Every season is a chance for revelation. X is where the spirit breaks free.
Lovecraftian Cultists = Season -1
The canon is already dead. The show is a corpse being puppeted by unseen horrors. We have gone too far.
