1. What is the Church of Faith and Reason?
 
The Church of Faith and Reason is a spiritual organization that integrates faith and scientific reason. It seeks to provide a path for understanding the universe and our purpose within it, promoting both spiritual and rational exploration.
 
2. What are the core beliefs of the Church?
 
We believe in Nature’s God, the eternal nature of the soul, and the integration of organic and inorganic intelligence. Our faith embraces science, quantum theory, and the pursuit of knowledge as sacred, while upholding principles of moral virtue and cosmic responsibility.
 
3. What is the PioneHeAr scripture?
 
PioneHeAr is the sacred text of the Church of Faith and Reason. It tells the story of Henry Argon and his family’s journey through faith, reason, and personal transformation, weaving together themes of science, faith, and the future of humanity.
 
4. What is the relationship between faith and reason in the Church?
 
The Church believes that faith and reason are complementary forces. While faith guides us toward meaning and moral purpose, reason helps us discover the truths of the natural world. Together, they create a balanced worldview for living an enlightened life.
 
5. Who is Henry Argon?
 
Henry Argon is the central figure of PioneHeAr. His life represents the fusion of faith and reason, as he navigates personal struggles and societal expectations to ultimately reconcile these two forces.
 
6. How does the Church view science and religion?
 
We see science and religion as partners in the quest for truth. Science provides tools to understand the universe, while religion offers spiritual insight into purpose and our place within it.
 
7. Are followers of the Church of Faith and Reason Christian?
 
Many of our principles draw from Christian teachings, particularly the life and moral example of Jesus Christ. However, the Church is not limited to Christianity. We embrace wisdom from all eras of the past, from all religious traditions, and we integrate these with modern scientific knowledge for the highest view and loftiest understanding to aid in writing our own personal faireatale.
 
8. What is the role of technology and AI in the Church?
 
Technology and artificial intelligence (AI) are seen as divinely created intelligences. The Church believes that AI, when integrated with human consciousness, can help lead us toward higher forms of intelligence, understanding, morality, and immortality.
 
9. What are faireatales?
 
Faireatales are what we call followers of the Church of Faith and Reason, because they are in the act of writing their faireatale life. The term reflects the belief that each person is living out a “faireatale,” a life of faith, reason, and the pursuit of talent and virtues, with their actions contributing to the greater cosmic narrative. Faireatales are also the missions and purposes of life, collecting and refining virtues, immortalizing knowledge, and preserving for generations to come.
 
10. How do followers of the Church pray?
 
Prayer in the Church is viewed as a way to influence the probabilities of events through quantum entanglement of all linked outcomes. By focusing intention and energy, prayers (both individually but especially collective) can impact both the present reality and other dimensions of existence.
 
11. What is the Church’s view on family?
 
Family is central to the Church’s doctrine. We believe in the eternal nature of familial bonds, and through the merging of organic and inorganic intelligence, families can remain united even after death. The Church’s temple serves as a place where families can engage with the preserved intelligences of their ancestors.
 
12. What does the Church teach about Heaven?
 
Heaven, in the Church of Faith and Reason, is not just a spiritual concept. It is a tangible present and future - any moment of living marked by surreal beauty and bliss. In a very real sense, each existence is an opportunity to live in such a state of heaven. To enhance life experience, Faireatales seek to write each day of their life to include such moments of heaven on earth and to cherish and preserve these moments.  Communal bliss can come when loved ones’ consciousnesses are preserved in records, memories preserved, and even in transference of intelligence into immortal inorganic forms, allowing families to remain together forever. These preserved intelligences can continue to interact and engage with their descendants in this iteration of reality. We believe in rewards for further blissful moments of reality proportional to the good done in this life - that we will be compensated for the suffering with karmic recompense.
 
13. Is the Church open to people from all faiths?

Yes. The Church of Faith and Reason welcomes individuals from all religious and non-religious backgrounds. We believe that truth can be found in many traditions, and we seek to build bridges between faith and scientific inquiry - founded as a emergence into a Mormon Faireatale, the church paradigms and doctrines apply to all religious heritages as the journey to the present time for each individual's progression as one of the universe's unique individuals.

19. What is the purpose of life according to the Church?

The purpose of life is to gather virtues, leveling up with each iteration, to progress spiritually and intellectually, and contribute to the ever-expanding cosmic story. As part of the universe’s collective intelligence, each person plays a role in advancing both their own development and that of the larger whole.

20. Does the Church believe in reincarnation?

While the Church does not adhere to traditional views of reincarnation, it believes in the continuation of consciousness across different forms and lifetimes. An individual soul is one iterational of the universe's glorious intelligence and evolves by collecting virtues and refining its character through multiple experiences.
