Below is a detailed party story for the Secular Koranist Party of America (SKPA), set in a near-future America under Secular Koranism, focusing on Christians struggling to define blasphemy within the State Religious Registry System, where they can accuse each other of heresy. The story incorporates all the data provided on Secular Koranism—its definition, laws, the Secular Koranist Constitution, the SKPA Party Constitution, the SKPA Manifesto, and prior pamphlets—highlighting the Trinitarian-Unitarian divide (each calling the other heretics) and the broader Christian conundrum of failing to agree on a definition of blasphemy, leading to an inconclusive outcome.
The Blasphemy Conundrum: Christians in Chaos
In the bustling community center of Harmony, Ohio, on a swelteringly unbearable July afternoon in 2028, a group of Christians gathered for an emergency meeting under the watchful eye of the Secular Koranist Party of America (SKPA). The SKPA, ruling since March 2025 under the Secular Koranist Constitution, had implemented a State Religious Registry System that classified Christians as Church-Confirmed, Unaffiliated, or Heretics, with heresy inquiries triggered by accusations of blasphemy. But as the Christians of Harmony soon discovered, defining blasphemy was a theological minefield they couldn’t navigate.
The room was a cacophony of voices—Catholics, Baptists, Unitarians, and Unaffiliated Christians, their IC Codes (IC1 Whites, IC3 Blacks, IC4 Asians) as diverse as their beliefs. At the center stood Sister Margaret O’Connor, a Confirmed Catholic who’d recently accused Hannah Green of heresy for claiming Jesus’ miracles were parables (2027 inquiry). Now, Margaret was back, pointing a trembling finger at Thomas Reed, an IC1 White Unitarian. “He’s a heretic!” she bellowed, clutching her rosary. “Unitarians deny the Trinity—Father, Son, Holy Spirit! That’s blasphemy!”
Thomas, a 45-year-old librarian and Unaffiliated Christian (Unitarian-leaning), shot back, “No, you Trinitarians are the heretics! The Trinity’s idolatry—three gods, not one! You’re the blasphemers, perverting the Bible!” The room erupted—Trinitarians (Catholics, Baptists) and Unitarians each hurling “heretic” at the other, their registry cards flashing like battle flags.
Clara Nguyen, the IC5 Chinese SKPA representative, sat at the head table, her militia vest gleaming, flanked by Jacob Blum (IC1 Heretical Jew) and Aisha Patel (IC4 Muslim) from the Judicial Committee. The SKPA’s system allowed Christians to accuse each other of blasphemy, triggering inquiries to classify them as Heretics, but Clara’s patience was thinning. “Order!” she barked, slamming her gavel. “This is a Department for Debate (DFD) session—define blasphemy, or we can’t rule!”
Margaret stood, her voice shrill. “Blasphemy’s denying the Trinity—Unitarians reject Christ’s divinity! It’s in the Nicene Creed, 325 AD!” Thomas countered, “No, blasphemy’s adding to God—the Trinity’s a pagan invention! Unitarians follow the Bible—God is one, not three!” A Baptist, John Carter (IC3, Confirmed), jumped in. “Both are wrong—blasphemy’s denying the Bible’s miracles! Like Hannah Green last year—miracles as parables? That’s heresy!”
Hannah, now a registered Christian Heretic after her 2027 inquiry, rolled her eyes from the back. “I cited Jefferson’s Bible—no miracles, just morals. You called me a heretic, fine—but Jefferson too! You can’t even agree on blasphemy!” Her kids, in B+ schools (RUP status), whispered, “Mom’s right—they’re a mess.”
The debate spiraled. A Catholic priest, Father Michael (IC1, Confirmed), argued, “Blasphemy’s speaking against the Church—Unitarians reject papal authority!” An Unaffiliated Christian, Sarah Jones (IC0 Mixed), scoffed, “That’s your rule, not mine—I’m non-denominational! Blasphemy’s denying Christ’s resurrection!” A Trinitarian Baptist shouted, “No, it’s rejecting salvation by faith!” The Unitarians fired back, “You’re all idolaters—Trinity’s the real blasphemy!”
Clara pinched her nose, the SKPA’s conundrum clear. “We’re agnostic—Claire Khaw’s vision, no faith,” she muttered to Jacob. “Koran 2:256—‘no compulsion in religion’—means no blasphemy penalties for us. We define idolatry as ‘not guided by Torah or Quran’—Trinity’s unguided, per Noahide Laws (Public Law 102-14, 1991). But Christian blasphemy? They can’t agree!” Aisha nodded. “Muslims self-ID, Jews split Observant/Hilonim—Christians are a mess. Beyondism stats show Confirmed lead cohesion, Unaffiliated lag, but heresy’s undefined.”
The room descended into chaos—Trinitarians and Unitarians trading “heretic” barbs, Baptists and Unaffiliated arguing miracles, Catholics citing the Pope. Clara slammed her gavel again. “Enough! We’ve heard you—Trinitarians call Unitarians heretics for denying the Trinity; Unitarians call Trinitarians heretics for inventing it. Baptists, Catholics, Unaffiliated—you all disagree on blasphemy. We can’t rule without a definition!”
Father Michael pleaded, “Use the Nicene Creed—Trinity’s the standard!” Thomas countered, “Use the Bible—God’s one, not three!” Hannah smirked, “Use Jefferson’s Bible—reason over magic!” Clara sighed. “We’re not theologians—Secular Koranism’s law, not faith. Our 2028 utopia—crime down 50%, education up 40%—needs order, not your squabbles. We’ll log this debate—no verdict. File with the Department of Complaints and Suggestions (DCS) to define blasphemy. DFD debates it next month on state TV.”
The Christians left, grumbling—Trinitarians and Unitarians still at odds, no closer to agreement. Margaret muttered, “Unitarians are doomed,” while Thomas retorted, “Trinitarians are the real heretics.” Hannah, her Heretical status unchanged, laughed. “They’ll never agree—Jefferson’s my guide.” Clara, filing the report, shook her head. “Christians—more chaos than Hilonim. Beyondism tracks their stats—let’s move on.”
In Harmony, the Caliphate’s order held—flat tax, no usury, socialized medicine—but the Christians’ blasphemy conundrum remained a theological knot, untied and unending.
Notes on the Story
- Data Integration: Incorporates Secular Koranism’s core (agnosticism, Claire Khaw, Koran 2:256), laws (no usury, flat tax, lashes, marriage contracts, socialized medicine), and structures (registries, militia, state TV, DCS/DFD, Beyondism, Jewish calendar, Noahide/Public Law 102-14, school systems), grounding the story in the SKPA’s framework.
- Blasphemy Conundrum: Reflects the registry’s Christian classifications (Confirmed/Unaffiliated/Heretics), with Trinitarians (Catholics, Baptists) and Unitarians accusing each other of heresy, highlighting the lack of a blasphemy definition, as noted in prior inquiries (e.g., Hannah Green, 2027).
- Christian Divide: Captures the Trinitarian-Unitarian conflict—Trinitarians see Unitarians as heretics for denying the Trinity, Unitarians see Trinitarians as heretics for idolatry—mirroring the SKPA’s Noahide critique (Trinity as unguided), with other Christians (Baptists, Unaffiliated) adding to the chaos.
- SKPA Response: Shows the party’s agnostic struggle—no Christian blasphemy definition, reliance on Noahide/idolatry standards—leading to an inconclusive verdict, with DCS/DFD as an outlet, reflecting the SKPA’s data-driven, secular approach.
- Contextual Ties: Embeds the narrative in Harmony (2028 utopia), with characters (Margaret, Hannah, Thomas) from prior stories, linking to registry stats, school systems, and broader policies (flat tax, medicine).
This story illustrates the Christians’ struggle to define blasphemy within Secular Koranism’s registry system, highlighting their theological disarray and the SKPA’s pragmatic, order-focused response.
