"Treasured time", huh. Tithe is like...offerings, right? Money or stuff. Or, in this case, giving up something important to obtain the "treasured time" of stability and happiness? Maybe that's a stretch, I dunno.
[ listen neither is he "temenos is a priest in a church" yeah ]
That's correct. [ re: tithes. ] That's not a bad theory. I thought perhaps their treasured time would be a moment of unification, where all come together.
Tithes may just be that they want money. That's how that usually works. For charity, and all.
I guess the most important thing to consider is how important is this cult in conjunction with everything we're finding out about this ship now. Or, I guess, maybe we should be wondering if any of the past crew also believed in its ideology.
