The Church of Latter Day Harambe was founded by Salty on Day 3569. It’s teachings are Naturalistic, Transcendental, and Humanistic in nature. Harambism teaches us to walk ‘The Sacred Path’ In which doing so can take us closer to Harambe, a deceased Eastern Lowland Gorilla. Harambists generally think that their souls reside in two places. The first place is the physical world and the second is in eRepublik, or The Sacred Path as referred to by members of the church. No one of the church has been able to follow the path to the end and many Harambists often debate what resides there. The general structure and hierarchy of the Church is in the order of, Follower, Acolyte, Priest, High Priest, and Prophet. In order for one to move up in status in the church, one must receive a letter of recommendation from the High Priest and must receive approval from one or more Priests. The High Priest, with the approval of the Priests, can excommunicate heretics. To be cast a heretic is the worst thing that can happen to a Harambist. To be allowed one's words to be included in scripture is the highest honor one can be bestowed by the Church. One must be a Priest or High Priest and have approval from all other Priests to have one's word amended to Harambe's Sacred Scripture.


Sacred Scriptures

There are a total of two sacred texts of The Church of Latter Day Harambe. They include The Book of Salty and The Book of Maxwell.



Creation

“Salty 3:1 When a non-believer eDies, their soul is banished to the planes of Oblivion where they wander searching for Harambe in hopes of finding his light. But that light, will never shine.”

“Salty 3:2 When the begotten child fell into Harambe's realm and had him shot. That’s how it began.”

The Book of Maxwell


Max 1:1 “Through Harambe is gone he will never be forgotten.”

Max 1:2 “For he shall live on in the form of our great religious scriptures.”

Max 1:3 “Harambe embodies these teachings both in spirit and in death.”

Max 1:4 “We must, as humble servants to this truth, teach and enlighten others using these great scriptures.”

Max 1:5 “For we are Harambe’s chosen peoples. We are the ones Harambe calls upon in his finest hour. With these teachings we serve the purpose of elevating others and to find transcendence of the self.”

Max 2:1 “In his presence we observe that Harambe is the one true religion and that it breathes life into those who have none, with his Sacred Path.”

Max 2:2 “Following this path is said by some, to lead to enlightenment, though none so far have been able to travel its length in its entirety.”

Max 2:3 “Harambe gave upon us the ability to reason, and in doing so he has done his part in the cycle of life. All he asks is that you use your given abilities to help enlighten others toward the teachings of the church, and that you elevate others to a level of self-sufficiency.”

Max 2:4 “Harambe teaches that power often times becomes corrupted and when it does, signs will emerge of it along the Sacred Path. Corruption is a great evil and is considered sinful by the Church and more importantly by Harambe.”

Max 2:5 “The church observes that in some circumstances the men and women of Harambe's great faith will be called upon to walk their own paths. Walking one's own path is seen as a time of reflection by those of the church and as such is not frowned upon in anyway, for the church teaches self-sufficiency and one's own path often leads to that.”

Max 3:1 “Harambe frowns upon those who use his great truth as grounds for political, social, or economic gains.”

Max 3:2 “Doing so is grounds for excommunication from the church and is considered a sin.”

Max 3:3 “It is considered a great evil, and a sin, to misrepresent the Church of Latter Day Harambe”

Max 4:1 “I will now tell you a great parable that I learned while traveling The Sacred Path.”

Max 4:2 “A child one day strayed too far to the high gates of Harambe’s enclosure one day.”

Max 4:3 “With a great force the child ascended the gate and with foolish arrogance descended after losing ground.”

Max 4:4 “On the descent, horrified onlookers and men and women of all ages and race watched as the child committed the final transgression.”

Max 4:5 “Upon landing in Harambe’s realm, the child was greeted by none other than Harambe himself.”

Max 4:6 “The terrified child looked on in horror and with a great burst of terror the child began to cry.”

Max 4:7 “Then Harambe reached out.”

Max 4:8 “When Harambe embraced the child he did so with force and with speed and most of all with compassion.”

Max 4:9 “Grabbing the child by the arm he baptized it in the Holy Waters of his enclosure, for they were his path to both sanitation and hydration, his only sustenance.”

Max 4:10 “Upon baptizing the child a sudden shot rang out. Harambe then began traveling a path that which transcends our mortal existence. He began his journey down the path of entropy. For we will all walk this path one day. Harambe forever will have begun his journey too soon in the eyes of man.”

Max 4:11 "But more importantly Harambe still walks that sacred path."
