I like it.

You forgot that they also have to give you money. That has to be a requirement or it's not a religion.

Yeah, I guess otherwise its treated as just a "cult".
All religions are cults though lol, cults that get money and are actually believed. And perhaps usually more weird. But I don't think that last one is true really lol. Religion only seems less weird because it is accepted. And to me, its no less weird than the FSM, scientifically speaking. I guess it just makes sense to us that man had to create God, probably because thats how conceited the human race was/is on average lol.

I am leaning heavily to Justnowism:

But I would never betray my belief in the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

What truly sane person would?
EDIT: wow, thats truly very convincing. Maybe as convincing as pastafarianism. Let the battle between pastafarianism and justnowism COMMENCE.
Oh and btw, if you believe in justnowism over pastafarianism (I myself am probably about 50/50 on this now), the creator of justnowism also obviously created this thread too. So don't believe the whole 'invent your own religion thing' justnowism really is true because justnowism's creator created this thread to trick you into thinking that justnowism is just "made up".
Thats if you doubt the FSM more than you doubt the justnowism creator of course.

How about "laterism?" We are just here to manfacture existence for the real children of God who will come later.
