Or perhaps the Egyptians had it right and we have 9 or so different souls. The Warp eats one of them, the C'Tan get another, but THE EMPRAH gets to keep the other seven, yay!

Fix'd

To touch on an earlier point, it's been mentioned and discussed in several DH books that a large part of the Ministorum's job is to catalog and evaluate all of the different "cults of the Emperor" as to whether they fall sufficiently in-line with what's acceptable, if the world needs re-educating or simply to be put to the pyre.

Also worth mentioning that, like all things in the bureaucratic nightmare that is the 41M, some "cults" deemed acceptable by one part of the Ministorum will naturally be deemed heretical by another facet. To say nothing of how cults feel about each other and who has the truest beliefs...

For reference to others, I think this was touched on in DoTDG the early cult section - like how moritat are a bit too death-cult/sanguine cult for normal flavors but somehow get by.

Exactly. I was going to point that out, too. Death Cults tend to get by because they keep a lid on it and that making wicked people die for the Emperor isn't exactly a bear industry in the Imperium.
