Let's start our own religion

What the should the name(s) of our god(s) be? Male, female or genderless god?

What should we call our religion? What are the major tenets?

I think our new god should be in the image of Halle Berry from the Dorothy Dandridge movie.

This "God" would be a perceived creator entity, presumably. I would not anthropomorphize it.

Do not deceive. Do not harm. Do not coerce. Be compassionate. Be empathetic. Make these your ideals.

What are the major tenets?

"To love and be loved; to teach and be taught".

"Thou shall not own fellow human beings as chattel property".

"Hand over the physical and natural environment to the next generation in as good a condition as possible".

"Just go ahead and bake the damn cakes for the gays, for God's sake".

"Do not abuse your spouses and children".

1. Deities and creator entities should be optional.

2. Major tenets:

Inquire after truth with an open mind. Do not believe or knowingly propagate falsehoods or rumors. If someone says graves opened and dead men walked around, be skeptical.

Find out what you are good for and do it (provided you do not cause gratuitous harm to anyone, including yourself, or the habitat).

You have no entitlement to be here, so be grateful you are alive.

You are not here to make the world a better place. You are here to make of yourself a better person.

No one is perfect. You have no call to reproach anyone because you think he is less perfect than yourself.


3. What to call it? “Stayin Alive.”

No burning people alive, not under any circumstances and for any time scale.
