+++ Any person who speaks ill of the Emperor, the Imperium, cites his loyalty to any entity besides the Emperor, defaces holy artifacts or buildings, incites heretical thoughts or actions, talks openly about forbidden subjects and generally behaves in a manner disrespectful to all that is holy and good will have his extremities removed and left to bleed to death, for the Emperor's pleasure. The body will then be burned to ensure no taint remains. +++ The Imperial Infantryman's Uplifting Primer, Art 6741/09a +++

Heresy must be regarded with the appropriate seriousness.

In the most basic WH40K sense, heresy is the most severe accusation the Imperium could accuse you of which is mostly punishable by death. Heresy is mostly willingly consorting with Chaos, which the Imperium gravely forbids and anyone guilty of merely saying anything good about Chaos will merit a fist-fuck of Inquisitorial proportions. The other popular form of heresy is the defamation of the Emperor and the Imperium, which is basically saying anything remotely bad about the Emperor or the Imperium. The others are basically anything against the Imperial Creed which is pretty much everything not related to the veneration of the Empra.

In very, very rare cases, the Imperium COULD probably forgive you for heresy, depending on the person who's judging you and the sheer gravity of your offense. But if they could forgive you, you'll most probably end up as a lobotomized servitor or be attached to some other kind of mechanical contraption that will ultimately result in you being killed, except you became useful BEFORE accepting the inevitable. Fuklaw KNOWS what it is, and he knows when you commit it. That's when he kills you. Dark Heresy is a particularly good PNP game set in the 40k universe. On /tg/ it's usually used as a substitute for a "censored" sign over NSFW material posted. That is, if anyone actually bothers censoring it.

What IS heresy?

It's all around you

The Imperium realizes that Heresy is a serious matter that must be explained with great detail from the lowliest servant to the highest Commander. And so with the aid of the most wise Inquisition and holy Ecclasiarchy, they have defined what is heresy in the eyes of our immortal God-Emperor:

  • EVERYTHING IS HERESY
  • EVERYTHING HERESY!*BLAM*

The trials for heresy are broad, but the majority of them occur like this

Extra heresy

Furries, the most common source of extra heresy

Extra heresy is a decree recently enacted by local Commissar Fuklaw. While we're still a bit sketchy on the details, it is clearly mentioned that Xenos love is Extra heretical but it is a well known fact that anything remotely related to furfaggatory is extra heretical.....weeelll unless you're one of the Space Wolves, anyway. Punishment is still the generic execution by your local commissar... those dic*BLAM* -Most virtuous and excellent officers of the Emperor. Actually, if the Emperor saw all this shit, he'd have a single teardrop from his eye.

Matt Ward and his Khornate Knights are, without a doubt, Extra Heresy. Just get out of Games Workshop you... You... DOUBLE HERETIC!*BLAM*

What isn't heretical

The Imperium's patented heresy detector.

Much like the whole Rule 34 and Rule 35 gig, there are a few things that aren't heresy. Here's a short and general list:

  • The immortal God-Emperor of man
  • Veneration of the immortal Emperor
  • Dying for the Emperor in the most awesomesauce way possible.
  • Monster Girl Quest... wait what!?
  • Brutally torturing and slaughtering heaps of xenos, mutants and heretics, for the Emperor. (If you can live long enough to fire that flashlight that is--)
  • Building gigantic cathedral's of worship the size of sky scrapers for the Emperor.
  • Rendering said cathedrals spaceworthy.
  • Praising of the Emperor.
  • Hailing to the High Lords of Terra/Administratum/Ecclesiarchy- Er, Emperor. Harder this time.
  • Killing your comrades and using their blood as armor paint.
  • Why are you still reading this instead of venerating the motherfucking Emperor?! You must be a heretic for having doubt! Die heretic scum! *BLAM*
