The Church of the Benevolent Queen, despite it's recent reputation as 'radical' due to it's leader's reputation as a traitor, shares many core doctrines and commandments with the Church of the Chief God; Acts of kindness and charity are to be expected from all followers, and it's followers must also be pure of heart and mind as much as they are capable of. Vices must never be given into. Even if you resist as much as possible, to err is to sin.

The fundamental differences concern Women, and Monsters. The Church of the Benevolent Queen celebrates women, and treats them as having more worth than men due to their strength, and the ability to create life, which was controversial in the Matriarchal Order before the frictions stemming from the differences in the view of monsters ever came up.

Whilst both the Order and the Church of the Benevolent Queen believe that the Demon Lord is a force of evil, and the initial purpose of the Monster Girls, whose very biology tempts men, was to ensure the gradual lessening of the human majority. The fundamental difference is that the Church of the Benevolent Queen believes that Monster Girls are not born guilty of sin or evil despite their purpose of being, and that they, like any sentient life, are capable of good, and can be upstanding citizens, pure of heart and mind. This was a direct contrast to the Order's core rules that Monster Girls should be slain on sight as they are enemies to humanity and inherently evil and sinful.

The final straw and the spark that led to the split, was a change made to the structure of the Church of the Benevolent Queen; Monster Girls could be ordained as Priestesses or even the Church Leader one day (though males of any species still could not). The Leader and founder of the Church, Rebecca St. Croix, was banished from her city and marked as a traitor, never to return to an Order city or town again on pain of death.
