| - The Temple Tendency is so called of the lingering elements of the Temple of the Saviour Emperor that exist in parts of the Imperium and within the Ecclesiarchy. The tone of rituals, dress, even the layout of chapels can bear a style or flourish that marks them as being linked to the ways of the pre-reformation era of the Ecclesiarchy, these distinctive features can be marked enough to elicit a feeling of "tending towards the temple" or having a "temple tendency." Over time, this phrase has become a euphemism within the Ministorum for marked greed or the desire for wordly power within its own rank. In the millennia since the reformation, heretics following the old ways have been unearthed. They have been similarly labelled as being of a "temple tendency" rather than admitting what they truly were and so the label has been perpetuated. To these sects, they are of course not the "Temple Tendency" at all, but the members of the Temple of the Saviour Emperor, champions of the old and "true faith." To them it is the Ministorum's faith that is false and corrupt -- a morally bankrupt upstart that has doomed mankind to a slow death.
