Gods Amongst Us

In these modern times of celebrity craze and Hollywood news medias filled with the latest celebrity gossip, there's always someone new to follow or undiely worship and adore. In past times where Egyptian Pharoahs and Caesars of the Roman Empire were even worshipped as living Gods, there comes out of the Caribbean Island out of Jamaica, a new God and a new Religion.





That new God is I, none other than the author of this blog, yours truly King Marcel Duvoix, and also His Holiness Grand Patriarch Marcel Duvoix, in ecclesiastical circles. As if Jamaica was not already filled with the pulsating lifeblood of the late superstar Bob Marley, whom popularized Rastafarianism, (a religion begun in the slums of Kingston Jamaica in the 1930's), then comes along the brand new religion of Legacism; begun in 2007. Legacism was actually founded in Ypsilanti Michigan in the United States, but I, it's founder {one of the self proclaimed Gods of this new earth age}, is originally of Jamaican blood by birth.

Jamaica is still reeling from past Gods like the late King Emmanuel Charles Edwards, whom singlehandedly and quite successfully established the now well known and globally respected Bobo Shanti order of Rastafarians. Then, there's the monumental Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, whom most Houses (or Mansions of Rastafari) acknowledge as being a God.  There's also the revered Marcus Garvey, whom is a major catalyst in may ways, and whom many in Rastafari sacredly honor as a prophet. Then comes along, I myself, King Marcel Duvoix of the Royal House of Marceligue, the unabashedly global Grand Patriarch of the Legacitic Orthodox Church and also a God of my own peoples; whom I call the Marceliguennes.

Jamaica has seen many modern prophets and Gods come and go, and yet again, others still come to proclaim a message, a new religion, and even a new country and Royal House to go with all that stuff. What Legacism (my religion) does though, is include all: lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgenders, intersexuals, hijras, androgynes, genders, and any other sexual or gender identification as being fuly a part of the religion without prejudice.

Why another religion?, or who needs another religion amongst so many others out there, especially Legacism? Well, there have always been new religions and new ideas and philosophies, whether we realize it or not, and the Legacitic religion is just the continuation of that process. The world has not had a major world shift religion, since at least 2000 years ago. Will Legacism be that religion or catalyst? One never knows, but the point is, that there will be more strange and wonderful religions developed in the future, and new Gods to rise up to claim their place on the world stage.

The Royal House of Marceligue, is surely the face of a fast emerging powerful royal family dynasty, bred of Jamaican blood and heritage, and new Gods and new religions are nothing new to anyone; especially to Jamaicans themselves.  What is perhaps peculiar to Jamaicans though, is that this Jamaican born God is boldly proclaiming to be for the outasts and hidden peoples of the island nation, mainly speaking: gays, lesbians, transgenders and bisexuals.

Legacism, as strange as it appears as a religion right now, with its now vastly expanding literary canon of scriptures and poetic quirkiness, and its even stranger God, King Marcel Duvoix, is here to stay. Scriptural books so far for Legacism, includes: Holy Legacy, Holy Continuum,Versalicious; and Wordition. An interesting book to watch, is the fast rising Legacitic religious book, now shooting to fame, which is the erotic and deeply mystical book simply called "Versalicious," and described as the delicious word. These are strange times, yes, but we've always had strange times, for as long as human memory has existed, and truly, Gods are amongst us.

Royals Reclaim Their Jamaican Heritage


What begun as a dream in my childhood, growing up as young boy in the island of Jamaica, has come full circle, and I'm now living my dream today. I dreamt one day, of a new land and country, a kingdom in some land, that I can call my own, and  a people whom shall call me king; and the patriarchal father of their nation.  In 2006 at the founding of the Kingdom of Marceligue, and also in that same year of the founding of the Royal House of Marceligue by legal documentation, a royal house of Jamaican roots, was brought forth into the world; through divine providence. 

The world is now being introduced, to the likes of such a towering patriarchal figure, as a Divine Priest King, and a God in human flesh, whom is responsible for the powerful forging of a new royal house and family; amidst the current global depression era of our modern times.  That person is I King Marcel Duvoix.  In my first autobiographical book published in July 2009, the reader will see the unfolding story of how I'm shown my purpose and mission in life, how I begun to realize my deity and rulership as given to me, and how I become ever humbled and determined to fulfill my royal obligations and duties against all odds; that neither looming homelessness nor past poverty shall stop me from rising up to greatness and victory won!

Such an exciting and tumultuous royal family, rich with deep history as well as new beginnings, has not been seen in a long time!  In "Holy Continuum," the sequel book to "Holy Legacy," I introduce new emerging concepts and ideas to the growing religion of Legacism to the world, and a solid Legacitic piece of literature, that firmly establishes the Royal House of Marceligue, as rising stars amongst the other royal families of the world.  Though riddled with high drama like a daily soap opera!, the royals of Marceligue whom owe their roots to the Fatherland of Jamaica, are: charismatic, highly creative and intelligent, and blessed with natural beauty and poise.

Upon ascending to the newly created royal throne in 2006, the beginnings of our immediate family branch was fairly small in number, but as of 2010 as I sit firmly at the helm of my realm, the kingdom has grown so significantly and rapidly in population size, and great importance; even among other royal families around the world.  This growth is spurred on by currently one member of the ever present Duvoix royal family, being I myself King Marcel Duvoix, and also at least three main individuals of various branches of the highly influential and powerful Jamaican side of the Phillpotts royal family branch.  The Phillpotts royal family today, according to the royal laws that govern Marceligue, and is included also among the laws written in the book Holy Legacy itself,  this particular branch of the Marceliguenne royals, is only one of the seven royal houses that united back in 2006; to make up the one unified royal house called: "The Royal House Of Marceligue."   

I myself King Marcel Duvoix, being the current sovereign of the royal house and family, am originally of the Phillpotts family branch by direct blood descent and name, but by divine providence, changed my name to its current form, renaming myself, created the premier Duvoix royal house itself, along with the other six royal houses, including the Phillpotts royal family branch, and then unified all seven royal family branches into one unified whole, and further decreed by my own legal command; that all come under my political rulership.

Today, the Royal House of Marceligue, and the royals and nobility that make up this fast expanding family, already has  its own legal constitution and laws, its own religion called Legacism, its own customs and highly developed culture and philosophy; and has managed to in a short space of time since only 2006, to wield considerable political control in gaining even some measure of worldwide recognition and audience among other royal families and highly influential peoples all around the world.  Although the royals of Marceligue, are rapidly emerging as a presence elsewhere, we've yet to become noticeable in our own ancestral land of Jamaica. 

As of press time, only the six people themselves whom signed the Marceliguenne Establishment Act, the name of the legal document signed in 2006 establishing the kingdom and the royal family as coming into existence, have so far officially been recognized as possessing titles and privileges etc.  Two of those were female, and the other four were males, including myself.  The titled individuals, whom signed this legal document as mentioned, are: King Regnant (myself), a Marquis, a Grand Count, a Grand Duchess, a Marchioness, and finally; an Earl. 

Presently, as the Marceliguenne royals and nobility continue to come together to preserve and pass down our shared family history and recorded royal family tree, more and more family members will be eventually given royal and nobility titles and privileges by myself; and as they are confirmed and verified as being a part of the royal house etc.  All will of course, follow the royal laws governing the one unified royal body, in order to be affirmed as royals of The Royal House of Marceligue, as well as fall under the laws of the constitution and government of my royal kingdom now in effect upon all recognized seven branches of my family tree.  Also to date, certain branches of the royal house, are coming together to not only reclaim our Jamaican heritage, but to also build and pass down: our royal family tree, our history; and our lasting legacy!  Yours, HRM King Marcel.

Do It Yourself Kingdom

In today's world of do it yourself this and that, and the pioneering spirit of hardy peoples willing to find a way to make their dreams come true somehow, just about anything that can possibly be imagined, can in fact be done; by people ingenious enough to find a way to do it!  However, establishing and founding one's own country, like for example when the United States of America was founded in 1776, is not at the top of most people's list.  Most folks, just don't go off establishing their own countries, like in olden days of setting up a colony and new settlements, and then declaring your independence as a new country to the rest of the world!  But what if, there were still people or groups of peoples today, in these modern times, whom have done the very same things?

Varying groups and peoples, even in these modern days and times, still have the pioneering spirit and the zeal to just do such an unheard of thing, of actually founding one's own country, and declaring you new country as independent, to the rest of the world, and one such person is myself, His Royal Majesty King Marcel Duvoix.  In my book called "Holy Legacy," published in July 2009, I write about how and why I did this, amongst other extraordinary things such as establishing my own royal house and family to go along with this newly proclaimed country; "Pretty cool huh?!" 

Today's modern world, have always taught that one can truly attain to whatever it is that one can ever dream of, and evidently, beginning your own country, is still at the top of some people's list, at least mine.  I begun my own country, called Kingdom of Marceligue back in 2006, and virtually most people have never heard of it, because at the moment, it exists as a country that has yet to be inhabited and occupied by those whom proclaimed it as theirs.  Will I set foot on the lands that I proclaim as mine?  Sure!, it's my dream, and anything is possible, and stranger things have happened.  I never give up on my dreams, nor cease to focus on, what I've already believed to be a true reality for me.  For me, I'm already a citizen of that new country I proclaim, and in my heart, I'm already living my grand dream, of a new country, and a new land all my own; with even a few pioneering souls to join me.  Yours, HRM King Marcel.
