    Your second and third tenets seem awfully arbitrary. Why such temporal rigidity? Isn't it enough that one listens to the Beatles and eats cheesy puffs? I think that you're creating the kind of rituals and traditions that have become meaningless and obsolete in many existing religions.

    Beatles every hour for 20 minutes? Fuck that. I don't hate the Beatles but they weren't that good.

    Honestly you'd be much better off not making any religion!

    have fun. but really, unless you've been chosen by big, friendly and invisible, to channel ITS will, don't expect much. and THAT has already been done for this thousand years in 1844/1863. (see baha'i)

    I tried that in highschool. The main tenant of my religion was that the home was sacred and work from outside was forbidden from being brought into the home, therefore I should be excused from doing homework on religious grounds.


    ... didn't go over so well with the teachers :(

    don't hurt each other
    clean up your mess
    is the important part
    strangeness is your friend is optional
    and then getting together every once in a while
    to hug and be hugged by the invisible to and have a good time doing so.

    that's pretty much what's at the core of the real ones we've got,
    if people would just stop twisting them into excuses to beat each other over the head.
