Balshanism
A variation of the dogma of the Church of Morgath, espoused by and named for the prophet Balsha. Morgathian philosophy teaches that the afterlife is an eternity of misery and that one should live only for today. Balshanism argued that since the worldly existence of most was in itself misery, to avoid eternal misery, one must serve Morgath well today and receive the rewards of a grateful deity, with "half-life eternal." In effect, Balshanism argues that worship of Morgath during one's lifetime will moderate the misery of the afterlife, creating a state of eternal "undeath," now and forever.
