Probably they would've killed him for being heretic and meet god again in a short time.

Nah, Sithrak's followers are chill, they know eternal torment awaits everyone eventually, there's no rush; they just spread the horrid word, no need to implement it themselves.

I mean as far as religious teachings go, "Stay alive as long as possible because there is only eternal torment awaiting you" is a pretty decent thing to get people to try and follow.

Egalitarian, too. Sithrak doesn't discriminate. Everyone will burn, regardless of race, gender, or creed.

The fact that Sithrak is actually a pretty nice guy and doesn't do that makes it even better.

Refreshing for a religion to worship a god they say is evil and be nice guys rather than what usually happens, worshipping a god they say is good while being full of hate.

Of course, that's how you know it's fiction, any worthy religion from real life would have him burned at the stakes as soon as he claims God said the sacred books are wrong.
