What is Aue?

Aue is a naturalistic religion with faith, doctrine, and practise. It asks for faith in society, and that the practice of evaluating joy & woe in society is beneficial. It considers us as a modern species dependant on one another.

A joy/woe dichotomy is the lens used to guide adherents. Aue strives for the peace and community of religion without supernatural dogma. Quality over quantity, it should be a concise base which, after deliberation, is timeless and agreeable. It should help to ground an adherent in naturalism and understand themselves and their relationship with others.

It is authored by Patrick Bowen, and is still open doctrine subject to minor change.

Miscellaneous information

Foundation. Aue was founded in September 2020. Since then it has had up to three simultaneous adherents.

Etymology. Pronounced /aʊ̯e/, like "ou-ay" in "ouch" and "pay", and has been chosen simply for being all vowels and sounding pleasant.

Symbol. The white band represents the short time we are conscious, black being from the start of the universe, to its continuation without us (inwards to outwards).
