Changes

==History==

During the [[Great Crusade]], many different cults appeared throughout the Imperium worshiping the Emperor as a god, each with their own subtle variations and differences. These forms of worship appeared first in those primitive planets that had strongly regressed during the [[Age of Strife]]. This culminated in the worship of the Emperor as a god by the [[Word Bearers]], resulting in the authoring of the [[Lectitio Divinitatus]] by [[Lorgar]]. Despite the Emperor's ban on worship, the cults continued on in secret by such figures as [[Euphrati Keeler]]. The numbers of these cults multiplied immensely with the Emperor's ultimate sacrifice to mankind and subsequent incarceration upon the [[Golden Throne]]. Most of these cults would gradually fade away, while others prospered, eventually absorbing the weaker ones. The more successful ones spread their forms of worship to other planets.
