Comparative atlas · Original English corpus · Evidence before conclusions

Corpus definition

Permit conscience, community, and tradition to challenge one's conduct.

This is the atlas’s definition, not a substitute for a tradition’s own interpretation. Scope, exceptions and translations require review of each source.

Preserved calculation difference

The original index differs from recomputed unique-system or specific-anchor counts. Both are retained; the source file is unchanged.
