The True Story of the the I invented my own religion, and converted Christians to it

Since my first post here may have seemed a little critical, I wanted to share this story with everyone, just to show how really easy it is for a tribal religion to begin.

Enjoy.

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?" - Epicurus

Pastors, ministers, priests etc...  How difficult can it be to become licensed as one of these?

Being an atheist and a reverend is just too funny to me. Oh, and in my state, any weddings I preform are perfectly legal.

What is certain, however, is that claims made in the name of powerful religions and beliefs attributed to Biblical gods, Jesus, and Muhammad are just as absurd as those made by members of the cryptic coin cult and are attributed to a 1922 US silver dollar.

True believer: "How do you know the coin really isn't a god? Maybe the coin is playing a trick on you, causing you to *think* that you've made up the coin religion, when really the coin is a true god. After all, you found three credit cards. What are the odds? I bet the coin is testing your faith. We need a coinist reformation to eliminate this blasphemer from leadership of the cult!"

[And a cult finally becomes a free-floating religion. Awww, how cute!]

Coinology: The 1922 coin was really just a manifestation of the true coin, which is all-powerful and omnipresent, yet invisble and undetectable by any material investigation. The value of the coin cannot be determined. Anyone who tries to put a set value on the coin is a blasphemer. Down with the economists!

Do you make any money from your followers? And do you have a schedule for when you pull the rug out from under them?

 

If you were able to make some money off of this, then this is something I should DEFINITELY get in on.
