I was going to give this answer but thinking about it a lot of cults have become religions relatively quickly, mormons for example and scientology although I myself view both as cults in general they are though of as religions.

You don't even need to have been dead for thousands of years to be taken seriously enough to start a religious group.

Nope, just long enough so no one is old enough to remember a/the prophet personally.

Just wait until all the people who know the details of how Scientology was established are dead and Elron's 'miracles' can't be personally refuted by anyone.
NOT logic:
1. Claim to have logic
2. Throw a tantrum when asked to present it
3. Claim you've already presented it
4. Repeat step 1
