Some
common questions and answers Do Brewists believe in a god? Not in the conventional sense. Brewists believe in a supernatural force that is omnipresent and eternal. It has a clear purpose for the world and for mankind. Yet this force shows no signs of being omnipotent; its supernatural interventions are few and far between. Do Brewists believe in miracles? Not exactly. In the Brewist view of history there have been only four interventions by the supernatural force, none of which is particularly spectacular. The latest intervention served to initiate the formation of the Brewist religion. How did Brewism originate? The Brewist religion was created by Andrew Akers, one of our resident philosophers. His knowledge of the sociological characteristics of religious movements led him to plan a working structure for a Brewist church. Was Brewism simply invented? Not exactly. In 1990, a profound truth was revealed to Mr. Akers. His extensive knowledge of the supernatural allowed him to recognize this truth as coming from somewhere other than his own creative mind. Does Brewism employ profits? No. The religion speaks for itself. The supernatural force intervenes in the most simple way---by planting a new directive in the nervous system of a single organism. This directive is of such a nature that it will spread to other organisms of the same type. Hence the idea of Brewism was placed in the mind of Mr. Akers. Is Brewism truly a religion? Yes. Brewist beliefs do not strain the limits of credibility. However, as with most religions, Brewism involves belief in a supernatural force as the cause of certain events. Do Brewist beliefs include an afterlife? Knowledge of an afterlife was not included in the revelation. So in all of Brewist beliefs, practices, and rituals there is no reference to an afterlife. The only goal in practicing Brewism is to live in closer harmony with the supernatural force. How does one become a Brewist? By understanding the will of the supernatural force, accepting that will, and consequently having a sincere desire to follow the tenants of Brewism. |
