Rending the Chains by Saint Calysto (artifact)

Rending the Chains is a series of essays supposedly written by Saint Calysto, patron saint of the Agionist Order of Saint Calysto's Key. The book primarily discusses how best to free the needy, most notably by forcefully enslaving them and then having them work to the death in service to true believers so that they may be reincarnated in the next life as a true believer, who may then go to a positive afterlife upon death. While often held as gospel by Calysto's Order, many academics believe the book was actually written several decades after his death by non-Agionist writers.
