My understanding is that the trinity from the nicene creed is a political document (not truthful nor religious) and it was designed to be universal(a translation of catholic) so that natives in each land (Christians and pagans) could have lip service that “we believe what you do” by the political catholic clergy who were the only ones allowed to interpret scriptures (or you had a Heretic death penalty) until the political power was secured, and after power was secured, a creed and rosary was enough to keep free thinking in line.

Well, something that the Mormons have is they tried out communism. They called it the law of consecration. They had some fun times with trying to handle being productive and redistribution and poligamous. They ultimately concluded that they weren’t ready for it yet so they went back to default capitalism with tithing and poor/fast offerings.
Tl;dr: Mormons believe in a kind of communism in heaven, and they go hungry for 2 meals (24 hrs) to remember to give generously to the poor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_consecration?wprov=sfla1
Holy clothing must not be damaged unless you plan to do the ritual of discarding (shred abd burn). As a windbreaker has at least 4 holes when worn correctly, it is indeed holy.

I want a tale of deliverance from pharaoh across the red Sea that feels like playing skyrim (crazy magic going on! And civil war progression)
I’m an athorist. I don’t believe in Thor God of thunder. No comment on the definition you were talking about. :P (Psst, I do believe in a diety, but I can’t talk about it here!)
