Puraetasism

Puraetasism is a school of thought, sometimes also referred to as a religion, that advocates a return the Pure Age of the Great Men. Puraetasists believe that prior to the Icnosis, humans originated from the civilization of the Great Men, tall beings who had ruled over their home system for generations and lived utopian lives. This was the Pure Age, a time when humanity was at its peak. They believe the current generation of humanity is a lesser imitation of the Great Men, and that they were banished following the Great Insolence, causing the Icnosis. Seeing this as a disgrace, they seek to re-integrate into the society of the Great Men by emulating them as closely as possible, and hold pre-Icnosis records as near-sacred objects.
