Atheism
From PathfinderWiki
Atheism is the rejection of the gods. Rather than outright disbelieving in gods (whose existence is a matter of hard fact), atheists in Golarion instead deny that the gods are truly divine and thus not deserving of worship or blind faith.[1]
Atheism is looked down upon in many parts of Golarion, but is enforced on a state level in the nations of Rahadoum in Garund[2], Touvette in the River Kingdoms[3], and Bachuan in Tian Xia[4] The devils known as deimaviggas believe that atheism is a tool to be used to lead mortals away from the gods and into Hell's embrace.[5] Some atheists have learned to heal themselves via mind-over-matter mental techniques in the absence of divine magic.[6]
