It's a tautology.

noun, plural tau·tol·o·gies.
1. needless repetition of an idea, especially in words other than those of the immediate context, without imparting additional force or clearness, as in “religious christian”
2. an instance of such repetition.

Your religion might be bullshit if it claims it isn't bullshit.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

But I can come up with a few more.

If you claim to have tons of evidence for your god's existence but refuse to give any, your religion is bullshit.
If you constantly argue against established science because it disagrees with your holy book, your religion is bullshit.
If you are uncomfortable, upset, or angry that other people don't share your religion, your religion is bullshit.
If your god hates all the same people you do, your religion is bullshit.
If you absolutely can't stand to hear anyone mocking your religion, your religion is bullshit.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Your religion might be bullshit if it is taken seriously.
Now! This is it! Now is the time to choose! Die, and be free of pain, or live and fight your sorrow! Now is the time to shape your stories! Your fate is in your hands!
