to get back to the topic (not to disrupt any jokes about the short clowns with 5 o’clock shadow) my religion would just be kind to others, respect their beliefs, but at the same time try and convert them. When you die you go to a form of heaven where you are given a unformed world to do with what you will. You essentially just do what god did in Genesis. Also you can go to others world but not interfere. kind of like look but don’t touch. There isn’t really a central belief so it’s basically any religion that tells you to be nice and this will be your reward.

Oh, jeez, you mean heels! My first thought was knives! I own five stilletos and 17 switchblades! There are over 25 knives in my kitchen and untold dozens in storage in the basement. I LOVE knives, always have. I can’t get boyfriend to wear heels, but the cheerleader outfit was a hoot! (I’m kidding here!)

No wonder I know nothing about it then. There’s not much of the other kind of modesty in my household, either. We are a bit clothing optional around here, especially in the summertime.

RBism is careful not to make too many promises to the faithful…we fear YouTube…The chloroform idea sounds splendid…

Sain, go to bed! Your Auntie Kookoo should have been in bed ages and ages ago, but still here pecking away at 6:24. Please review your above post and then write a new really long post explaining that post. I just don’t know what you’re talking about! But it already sounds better than scientology! I see, though, that RBism is probably not gonna be your thing. (pssst! rb! we may have to get the chloroform out again!! Converts are just not swarming in like we’d hoped!) Perhaps we could add some of these features to RBism to attract the masses! I see a t-shirt: “purpose fulfilled, now kindly move on”, but no, won’t fit on a hat, never mind… I think 57ism could catch on with the right marketing geniuses.

My own religion…...
There will be a god.
It is monotheistic.
many morals that are similar to the bible.
when someone dies; they will go to a place of natural paradise, The god will show him or her “The Chain of Memories”; then the person have the choice to go through stages of different worlds and find his or her true meaning of life and original purpose to fufill. Once reaching the final stage; they will battle the full form of their sin. If the person win, they get to finally go back to the our world of Humans; and fufill their purpose. Once done, the chain will break and the person will disappear; purpose fufilled….............

“Do the religious tell atheist jokes…?”

It isn’t so much a religious joke, as is a religious joke.

Well, there is the thing about worshipping and praying privately instead of showing off in a big group of people. Many christian religions were re-made due to schisms (spelling?), that is a split-off from a previous faith due to different beliefs or other reasons such as a lot of hatred between folks, etc.

But this reminds me of a joke:

A man was on a bridge preparing to commit suicide by jumping. Another gentleman came along and noticed what the other was doing and cried out “Stop what you’re doing! Don’t you believe in God! The bible says that you mustn’t kill yourself”
Suicidal man: “Why, yes, I do believe in God, I’m a Baptist”
Passerby: I’m a Baptist, too! Are you a Southern or Northern Baptist?
SM: Northern Baptist
P: I’m a Northern Baptist, too. What a coincidence! Are you of orthodox persuasion or reformed?
SM: Reformed, of course
P: Me, too! Are you Northeastern Reformed or Northwestern Reformed?
SM: Well, Northeastern, my friend, you know those Northwesterners have got it all wrong.

With that the passerby screamed “Die, heretic!” and pushed the first man off the bridge!

Perhaps a new thread with some humorous stories? Let’s keep it social, though.

OK heres a question…if you believe in the bible and the words and teachings of it then why would you want to make up your own religion?

Oh, this is fun…

The other night my friend got home to find a plate and cup in front of her husband’s widescreen tv, placed. She annoyedly placed it in the dishwasher. But then a later phonecall from the man revealed that he really does love the tv more than his wife. To cheer her up I stated that the afore-mentioned plate and cup looked, to the eyes of someone with a background in anthropology, to have been placed there as an offering to the great god Tele. The man worships the tv, thus was reverting to some sort of primitive instinct to leave it offereings of chips and soda, those foods which he himself found most tasteful.

Not really an invented religion, but also not an implausible concept when you look at it from a certain perspective. After all, that tv was the source of the man’s greatest joy. And let’s not forget the holy trinity: Tele, Net, and the Blessed Video Game. lol

can’t go wrong with Valhalla-but I must agree with the norms of Humanism in saying that personal God’s tend to be nonconstructive. It’s not an end-all be-all, but it’s hard to argue with…
