What i mean is the older you get, the more the idea that if you dont worship this god, you are going to hell. The threat is there, what i suggest is something that can shatter that old view of tensions of the past with more obvious common sense of how we see humans as.

bold mine

Who gets to determine what is bad?

Good point. But there are some obvious good or bad. You know, don't kill people to mention a few. But this religion would be self evident reasons for what is evil or good. Like i would say cannibalism is evil. Its trial and error form of struggle between right and wrong, something is just plain obvious more or less. Though this is a good question, but thats why we have history to learn as humans that humans have flaws, we are born the way we are but there are flaws more or less.

Science can be considered made up too, but still its a made up tool to prove our physical existance because it explains our reality we live on based upon knowledge of what we can get from the world we live in. Just like philosophy is a tool people use to explain our purpose. Religion is philosophy that became dogmatic because they thought consequences had to exist for your actions. But that doesn't mean their truth is the real truth
