The Apostolado Pozitivista do Brasil (Positivist Apostolate of Brazil), also known as Igreja Positivista do Brasil (Positivist Church of Brazil), was a civic and religious organization founded in 1882 in the city of Rio de Janeiro. The organization was founded by Miguel Lemos (1854-1917) upon returning from his studies in France, with the goal to spread the writings and philosophies of French philosopher Auguste Comte (1798-1857). In an attempt to quell the perceived social disorder from the French Revolution, Comte formulated the doctrine of positivism, which theorizes an account of social evolution with three stages: the theological stage (seen in France as preceding the Age of Enlightenment), the metaphysical stage (seen in France as subsequent to the French Revolution of 1789, around the discussion of 'universal rights'), and the positive stage (seen in France as after the failure of Napoleon). Additionally, Comte founded a secular religion called the Religion de l'Humanité (Religion of Humanity), built on the concepts of altruism, order, and progress. The Apostolado Pozitivista do Brasil founded by Miguel Lemos was an orthodox branch of the Religion of Humanity, devoted to Comte's positivist doctrine. The organization published pamphlets on a variety of social justice topics, including the proclamation of the republic of Brazil; the abolition of slavery; the inclusion and respect for the Black, poor, and indigenous populations of Brazil, the separation of church and state; and the opposition to international militarism, war, and imperialism. The Apostolado Pozitivista do Brasil developed religious rituals, services, and the "Temple of Humanity" (finished in 1928), while other political, technical, and military sects of positivism in Brazil evolved simultaneously. Though the prominence of the Apostolado Pozitivista do Brasil has steadily declined in the later 20th and 21st centuries, the organization does still hold religious services in Brazil today. The flag of Brazil bears the phrase "Ordem e Progresso," based on Comte's positivist doctrine and is a tribute to the institution of the Brazilian republic following a monarchical government and military coup d'etat.

Tenri Hommichi, also known as Tenrikyo, is a religious organization and Shinto sect in Japan. The organization was founded by Miki Nakayama (1798-1887), a Japanese peasant from present-day Tenri, Nara. Tenrikyo draws upon the traditions of folk-religion, shamans, and Buddhism to support the idea of "a universal parent-god from whom our bodies are on loan" (see History folder). "Tenri" means "the Logos of Heaven" and "Homminichi" means "the Way of Reality" (see History folder). The doctrine of Tenrikyo says that in 1838, ten deities entered the body of Miki Nakayama, told her "stories about the origin of human beings," and left her to spread the "divine message" among humans. Tenrikyo is often considered one of the "new religions" in Japan, despite its origins in the 19th century, and was "one of the most powerful religious movements in Japan immediately before World War II" (Britannica). Today, the organization focuses on missionary work and has approximately two million members worldwide.
