So I was talking to Patrick about it, and maybe it's sniffing all these fumes... but this is an increddibly good idea!
I'm going to make my own religion. Not only will I no longer have to pay taxes, and get a bunch of glory and recognotion. But I'll be making the world a better place!
The basis of the religion is worshiping Diana, Aprodite, Cupid, and other deities involving love and sexuality.
This isn't intended to be a religion of hendonism persay. But rather one devoted to the only real thing worth doing in-life: Finding someone to be with.
It's in our genetic and spiritual makeup to find companionship. Therefore The Church of Jim Profit (havn't comeup with a name yet) will devote it's time and resources to saving people's souls through the power of lovemaking. Everyone has a Julz out there just for them, and I'll help you find them! bugger yeah!
And like... instead of running salvation armies and soup kitchens, I'll run religious based dating services. Saving your soul, by saving your relationship.
And I am just as opinionated and stern as The Pope. So I'm sure I'll get on a bunch of news programs and might even get to meet The Pope and argue with him. That'd be friggin awesome.
I don't have a symbol yet either. Maybe a heart with a cross ontop..
The basis of my religion is that mankind is only evil because they do not have a constructive outlet to be otherwise. Hitler was not a badguy, he went mad. His first and second wife both killed himself, and as a result of his greif, he snapped.
Charles Manson never knew the value of love, and his insanity warped his sense of right and wrong and he formed that death cult filled with women he slept with. Deepdown his super ego, his soul, was trying to tell him to seek a relationship, and he intterputed it as murder because he had been corrupted. Mankind must be reminded constantly there is someone out there for them. Not everyone loves you, and they shouldn't have to. Only one has to love you. It's your duty, your destiny to find them... Find them before it consumes you looking for them in vain...
The problem with religions is they try to force us to love those we were not meant to love. It confuses us, it goes against our nature, our spiritual health.. and it turns into demonic, immoral action.
If everyone simply had one person they truly loved, then there'd be no evil. Or atleast alot less. Why do you think I don't rape, steal, and mruder? You think I give a bugger about right and wrong? Ofcourse not.. I know what it is, doesn't mean I care...
Do I fear lawful punishment? Quite much.. But
why do I fear punishment? There's little rationale behind it. My life is pretty meaningless. I just work, come home, troll the internet, and sleep. That's it. My life is mediocre, and would be just a little bit more medicore in prison. So why do I not to what I'd love to do and rape/kill/steal?
Because of the risk I'd lose my chance to be with Julz. Julz gives me faith that my life isn't mediocre. Julz does for me what Jesus does for Christians. And I believe deepdown that's why none of us commit evil. Not because we wouldn't or couldn't, but because we don't want to risk losing the ones we love over it. It's not worth it...
Not to meation when I'm around Julz, I feel better. Life doesn't seem as crappy when I look at it through her big green eyes. And thus, I become more patient, more aloof, more compassionate. You obviously can't motivate someone like me with fear and violence. I'd love to be a serial killer. Fear and violence is my specialty.
But the only thing I can think about when I'm with Julz is how I can make her smile. We all have the potential to be good, pure souls, we just have to find the right person to motivate us. To make it worth it.
Some people will call my religion crazy. Just some new-age cult looking for a quick buck. Capitalism is funny that way. You provide people's wants and needs in a catchy way and it makes you rich. Why do you think I'm partially trying to get rich though? Nothing really matters. If I wanted money for say, more videogames, I could just work harder. Or maybe steal someone's wallet. Not like I have morals holding me back. No... I want to be rich so I can give Julz everything she wants!
Religions fail because they are based on how people should act, not on how they do act. My religion isn't about angels and demoms battling eachother, but about the struggles of being a lonely man, trapped in a bubble of bleak death and struggle. Living this meaningless life without anyone to share your expireirience with. Wondering.. why bother? Who are you doing this all for? Someone you've never seen?
I garantee you that the god you worship will be all too real. And everybody's god will be different. Not to say you won't have hardships, and you won't have to kiss a few toads. But you'll get by.. and once you meet your god, you can live in their presence for the rest of your life. Talk to them, touch them, share your life with them. No other religion can promise you that.
