This sect raised an army in 1943, but was disbanded after the communists came to power and exiled their "pope." According to their creation myth, originally there existed the formless Tao from which God was born, and God then formed the Goddess from himself. They modeled their organizational structure on the Roman Catholic Church, and their temples are adorned with image of a large eye inside a triangle. Among its saints it counts Jesus Christ, Sun Yat-Sen, and Victor Hugo. For ten points, identify this relatively new syncretic religion whose worship is based in Vietna
