ECR followers believe our planet is the immortal child of Mother Sun and Father Moon. They believe the landscapes are in fact the face and body of the Earth Child. They believe the Earth Child made plants and herbivorous animals when it was a young student, carnivorous and omnivorous animals when it grew older, and humans after it had obtained the S.M. degree (the highest academic degree in Racrova). ECR followers believe every human being is given a soul by their ancestors the moment the labor pains start shortly before birth. After that, the various ECR sects start disagreeing...

In most ECR sects, most of the following practices are taboo:
- Sex with first or second-grade relatives, animals or people of your own sex
- Sex with someone who is not the parent of your children, if you already have children (Most ECR sects do not have "marriage." A woman is bound for life to the father of her first child. Or to the man she claims to be the father.)
- Disputing a mother's claim as to who is the father of her child
- Eating meat of omnivorous or carnivorous animals (No pork, no dogs, no snakes...)
- Drinking alcohol outside church
- Badmouthing dead people
- Inheritance tax
- Leaving the house during menstruation
- Digging holes into the ground (or building tunnels) without apologizing to the Earth Child
