People of the Way

The People of the Way is a religious order featured in the science fiction television series Andromeda. Members of the order are referred to as Wayists, while ministers of the People of the Way are called Reverends, or Rev for short. They are philosophers and arbiters of peace. Wayists do not try to convert people to their way of thinking. They believe that their function is simply to show them that they are already Wayists. The Magog alien known as Rev Bem is a Wayist, which is in sharp contrast to the common practices and methods of his species.
