Wanna start your own religion? Well you're in luck, cause recently I found a floating article on Huffington Post title "Ten Commandments for starting your own religion". In this article, which you can find
here, ten rules for starting your own religion is listed.
To summarize the article:
The ten rules are as follows,
- Add sex rules to your religion
- Follow traditional examples and refer to ancient historical events
- Turn natural phenomenae into supernatural ones
- Find some real-life holy land for your religion
- Cheat Death
- Rules!!! Taboo and Regulations are important
- Make up some backstory
- Forgive but don't forget sins
- Find some competition
- God... nuff said.
While reading the article though, I couldn't help but notice that it seemed to be referring to the new religion as if it wasn't anything holy and was just a business to suck people into. Nowadays, where people can even see the once sacred religion as nothing more than a business, times have certainly changed.
