About this listen

Empires collapse. Borders vanish. Armies dissolve.Yet religious systems persist — fragmented, diminished, but still functioning.This episode examines why belief-based systems outlast the political powers that once enforced them. Not through theology, but through structure: how creeds compressed identity, how orthodoxy maintained coherence, how councils functioned as system updates, and how religious communities adapted to collapse in ways empires could not.
