Overview
Caladanism (also known as Neo-Ilminism, Neo-Juche, or Korean National Socialism) is the ideology of Caladan. He is a fascist who is influenced mostly by the ideas of Juche and Ilminism along with Maoist-Third Worldism and Ethnopluralism. It is incredibly ultranationalist and somewhat pan-nationalist ideology believing Koreans and other Asians (excluding Arabs and Indians) should form a strict military alliance and that this military alliance should govern warfare between member states. This system is based on the Imperium in Dune and the Galactic Convention described within the books. He is extremely racist against Anglos and Jews and is fine with almost everyone else although he also has some problems with the Germans albeit less because he admires what the Nazis did on the western front.
Religious Views
Caladanism is rooted in a mix of Gnostic Christianity, Korean indigenous beliefs, Buddhism, and Pereniallism (and schizophrenia according to some)[4]. It believes that all ethnicities have their own gods, whether that is one group of gods in different aspects or actual different gods he doesn't know. He also believes it is possible that there is one supreme god who created these gods. He believes each ethnicity is meant to worship their own gods and not any other's. With regards to Korea he wished to form a national cult and to codify and formalize Korean Shamanism into one singular religion. He wishes to adopt a religious code similar to Sharia Law in Islam.
With regards to Christianity he believes that the god of the Jews, Yahweh, is evil and that this is the result of the schemes of Jews to the present day. He believes that the gods or the aforementioned potential supreme god sent Jesus Christ to the Jews in order to transform the Jews into a new, good people who could coexist with the rest of the world. He does not believe Jesus is the Jewish Messiah per se but is a messiah sent to save and transform the Jews. He believes a conspiracy between Judas Iscariot and Paul led to Jesus's early crucifixion before a successful revolt against the Roman Empire came to fruition and that Judas and Paul corrupted the Apostles of Jesus and created false religious books and perverted Jesus' word which he believes preached Anti-Imperialist militancy. Caladanism believes most if not all of the New Testament is a forgery. He is similar to Gnostic Christianity in that he believes the god of the old testament is evil and separate from the God of the New Testament. He believes that since the Jews failed to follow Jesus that they are now irredeemable unless they overcome their own nature and the race itself will not be redeemed until the end of time
He believes at the end of the world the prophesied Jewish Messiah will come and trick large portions of the world into supporting him and conquer all those who will not submit to his rule. He believes this Messiah will establish a worldwide globalist, liberal, capitalist world order with no borders and try to eliminate all cultures. However when only few believers in the Old Gods remains Caladanism believes the Gods of all ethnicities will descend and obliterate the armies of the Jewish messiah and reestablish sovereignty over their own nations. He believes Jesus will slay the Jewish Messiah and then all gods combined will seize Yahweh and throw him into an endless pit of fire. He believes at this time all humans who ever lived will be judged and race traitors will be thrown into the pit along with those who committed certain sins. Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, most Jews, and other followers of certain religions will also be tossed in the pit. Most sinners will be thrown in the pit temporarily but eventually will be allowed to leave. After this he believes the gods will establish worldwide peace and humans will become immortal and spread across the endless universe. In addition he believes at this point it will become physically impossible for humans to commit sin.
Ideology
Political System
Caladanism believes the political system should operate on a corporate basis similar to the system described by Mosley. All the corporate entities from the local to national level would be monitored by a Socialist Guardian Council which would make sure all the corporation's decisions are in line with Nationalism and Socialism. Additionally he would also have a Supreme Leader elected by those eligible to vote once every 10 years. Party members would be the only ones allowed to vote for the Supreme Leader and the Supreme Leader candidates would all have to be vetted by the National Socialist Guardian Council. All persons of Korean heritage would be allowed in the party so long as they pass a test on Korean National Socialism.
Socialist Guardian Councils will also be elected by party members
