Yup, I have decided to start my own religion, I hope to create a religion that is all accepting, does not discriminate and is of course charitable...and profitable grin. We shall worship things we can see or know for a fact exists or existed, like scientists past or present, bad-ass/hot actors (with no religious affiliations of course), public figures who were awesome and we shall have a book that guides our thoughts and actions grin

My religion is still in the planning stages so fellow atheists lets get to work and make this a reality.

P.S
If an illiterate could create a religion followed by billions years later, why can't I? grin

I don't know about other atheists, but if I found proof for any God, Allah, Jesus, Buddah, Krishna etc I would worship, I worship Clint Eastwood (or any celeb deity I can come up with grin ) because I can see, possibly touch my God, and I know he exists, no 'faith' needed. grin You can't make the same boast, have you ever seen Jesus? or an angel?

have u ever seen the wind . have u ever wondered what powers ur consciousness. have u ever wondered why man's intelligence towers above other creatures? have you ever wondered the intricacy of Grand design? have you ever wondered what binds other dimensions from spinning out of control and nullifying the 3rd dimension? have you ever wondered why atheists could adopt the Higgs boson particle? I can start a new religion with u based on a template of facts and evidence of answers to the questions above

I have no explanations for any of those, but to claim that what you don't understand results from the supernatural isn't the best answer either. It's like primitives in a village untouched by civilization or technology, all of a sudden an airplane crashes into it, the default/human response would be to claim it came from the gods because they can't possible comprehend that level of technological advancement, that is where we are, we think we know so much but for you to tell me consciousness, grand design (or what looks like it), and other unanswered mysteries can't be logically explained, you must know EVERYTHING about the EVERYTHING to draw that conclusion...and sorry hun, we don't know everything. Maybe our children's children would be able to find answers (and they will). Soon though there would be no reason or use for religion...except my religion which I'm creating. grin grin

i dont see atheists joining you in this, we've passed this stage.

Anybody can create religion that promote good and well being of the society, its like a two way thing, but that doesnt mean some of the fundamental truths are objective. You can get people to worship, but what happens is that as time goes on people will look for the objective reason/fact and when they do so, that is the end!

Creating an organisation/movement is okay, compared to creating a religion(bondage).

It's a lazy approach, and it is detrimental to human advancement, look at what happened to Galileo whose scientific approach was spot on but because it countered the views of the church he almost lost his life, this is the reason why you find a highly religious population among poor countries (including Nigeria). If people are allowed to think without religious backlash, the world would be a more advanced place.

Turn the celebs into idols, scientists into gods, doctors into miracle workers. Collect donations from members... religion is a get rich quick scheme.
Plan it well and soon, you will be riding in your own private jets, building universities the poor cannot afford and changing spouse as you like...but i will never be a member

Hmmm. I will join you . I got some friends bothering me about me not having someone/something to worship. I became a Pastafarian weeks ago but i can always combine worship of the Flying Spaghetti Monster with other religion especially those founded by beautiful people. Put me on the list pleeeeeaaaaase!

I believe Clint Eastwood will do wonderful things through you. Your coming is a welcome development on our religious landscape. Contact me for affordable registration with the CAC and other legal matters.

May Eastwood keep you.

PS. Have you drafted your creation facts? What of your eschatology?
