Any Lapists out there? #LapistsUnite
7 years ago
Please. I'm searching desperately for other Lapists in the world.
Whether you've heard of them or not, what you yet may not know is that there are people in the world actually practicing Lapism as a philosophy; and I am one. So if you're a Lapist or are interested in learning more, please PM me- but also know that I have no interest in convincing or pushing anyone to join.
It's difficult to describe what Lapism is to someone who' never heard of it. It appears as the central topic of a collection of short stories- works of fiction in which Lapism is called philosophy, religion, and /or faith at different times. Which of these Lapism really is might depend on your own interpretation. It's called a religion, despite it utterly lacking in deity lore or any claims to the mystic at all. It's called philosophy due to it's propensity for guiding the Lapist through life toward greater and greater heights of goodness. And in many cases, especially in the stories, Lapists get by and inspire one another by having faith in each other, in themselves, and in Lapism itself for it's overall message.
I seriously doubt that the author wanted their readers to adopt this fictional religion as their own philosophy. Their book was not written to seek converts; just to entertain. Perhaps get a moral across, like Aesop's Fables.
The book is called: "The First Book of Lapism" by Phil Geusz. It's available on Kindle and paperback.
Again, I'm not seeking converts, I'm just looking for other Lapists with whom I may connect and maybe start a group.
Please share with anyone who may be interested.
