Alvisism

Alvisism is a fictional monothiestic religion that worships a Pioneer as a Messiah-like deity or half-god. It appears in a few episodes of Sealab 2021, most notably in the episode Feast of Alvis.

Alvisist Mythology
During the time of American expansion into the Wild West, a woman named Delia gave birth to Alvis at an American fort. His birth was deemed an immaculate conception, as none of the men she traveled with would identify themself as the father. A mighty comet appeared overhead, guiding Native Americans to the baby, bearing gifts of liquor and guns. It was said that the baby Alvis glowed radiantly. Whether or not any of this is true is open to interpretation - as Sparks claims that the story is a myth.

Alvis killed for your sins. He was killed by the Romans, but many followers blame the Krebs despite Alvis being born Krebish himself.
