But we all know that simply doesn't exist.
Well that's kind of like asking for a dry rain or a hot ice cream now isn't it?

But if this was a legitimate belief system, it should be possible to find.  That it isn't proves just how idiotic religion is.
There is nothing demonstrably true that religion can provide mankind that cannot be achieved as well or better through secular means.
