The Orthodox Demonist Patriarchate of Belleville, also known as the Orthodox Demonist Church of Florentia, is a minor Christian Church of the Orthodox Communion. Although the ODPB reckognises the authority of the Ahranaian Ecumenical Patriarch as the first among equals, the Bellevillian Patriarch disagrees on several subjects, including sins, demons and the treatement of women and homosexuality in the Church, which led to the Patiarchate being excommunicated. The ODPB currently has around 9 million adherents, including those outside Florentian borders.
The ODPB having created Demonist Faith, the Patriarch of Belleville is the de facto leader of the this sub-branch of Christianity and has the authority to canonize myths, tales and spirits in the Demonist theology, based on the suggestion from the other demonist Patiarchates around the Wurld.
