Now, that’s almost a new religion, every year, since the beginning of modern civilization. Considering the lucrative nature of modern religions and the power and money that can be accumulated by these religions which proclaim simple living and thinking, I thought if I could come up with a way to create a new religion.
Every religion requires 3 main things
- A hero: central character: preferably male character
- A holy book: which contains the ‘real’ truth
- Promise of a better future where all your desires come true, by following 1 and 2, that is, hero and the book
What it should not include
- A specific time or the date when things will happen
- Suggesting that other paths ( religions or philosophies ) could also contain truth
- Sound too materialistic
