New Religion ?
34 Answers
I am thinking of starting a new religion.
Now, I know its been done before....Mary Baker Eddy, Ron Hubbard, Charles Taze Russell, Joseph Smith, etc, but there seems to be good financial reasons for doing it. And there are lots of atheists out there that need hoovering up !
What elements do you think would be needed for this new venture to be a success ?
Don't forget that almost anything can be included, judging from past attempts at doing this, so let your imagination run riot !

Has anybody noticed that almost 100% of the "new" religions that have popped up since the mid-1880's, have been invented in the United States ?
Can anybody think of a reason for this ? Americans would appear to be rather more credulous than us Brits, given their wide-spread belief in contacts with aliens, flying saucers, etc. But surely that can't account for such a one-sided affair. Is common sense not seen as a virtue in America as it does on our side of the Atlantic ?

Look, I just want to be like any other god. You can pray to me if you like but I won't answer. You can expect miracles but will get none.
All I want is to be worshipped. Is that too much to ask? Of course I haven't the clout that that OT fellow had. I can't instruct people to go out and slaughter you, your family, your tribe, men. women, children and animals if you don't worship me. So I suppose I'm a toothless god really; can't do anything nice for you or anything nasty against you. I'm not sure I'm the right man for the job.
