Secular Humanists Indifferent to Theism. The aim of SHIT is to esthablish secular humanism as being equal to the others in constitutional protection. We'd esthablish our own churches with tax exemption, agitate to have our own creation myths taught in schools etc. I need some help fleshing this out any ideas?
Ten Step Plan 1) Find someone in history who may or may not have existed to be the messiah of your new religion. I know there are other religions that have no physical person as their focal point, but I think having one does help. 2) Follow the success formula of the other major religions and copy/incorporate into the new religion all that you like from the religions before. 3) This is the most important part of the plan. Write a "holy book" to substantiate all the claims of the new religion. Say it's inspired, to give it credibility. Even though it's your religion giving its own book the stamp of inspiration/credibility, I'm sure no one will notice. It's worked before. 4) Keep the new holy book in the hands of a priest for as long as you can. Do not allow it to be translated into the common language of the ignorant people you want to control. You and the priest will control its content. 5) Edit, delete and add to the holy book freely. Since you alone posses the only originals no one can stop you. If a religious, moral or political issue comes up and your created messiah did not address it, you can re-edit the holy book and put the words in his mouth. Remember...no one will know, you control the holy book. 6) In case you forget to cover a subject in the holy book, I have an idea how to cover your ass in the future. You shall never, never, never have your created messiah answer a question directly. Your created messiah will talk in parables, like most parables they will be subject to interpretation. This will give your priest room to work with when confronted with tough questions. 7) I predict that it will be almost 1,000 years before man develops the technology to mass reproduce the holy book. This will give the priest 1,000 years to edit, delete and add to the holy book freely. I'm confident in that amount of time the holy book will be able to refute questions from any dirty little atheist/heretic/pagan/heathen. 8) Convert the leader of your country to your new religion. Allow him to have a say into what the holy books content should be. With the leader of your country in your hip pocket, you convince him to use his imperial power to shove the new religion down the throats of the ignorant people, and if they complain too strongly, they will be killed. 9) With the government behind you and its military might to support, you will have them burn libraries, destroy pagan temples, kill heretics, have blasphemers imprisoned, exile the outspoken brethren, torture the innocent, have holy wars and disrespect other religions. This wholesale destruction unparalleled in the history of mankind hopefully will accomplish two things. It will eliminate any other religious choices for the ignorant people and it should destroy all the other pagan religions history. At worst pagan history will be fragmented enough so not to reveal the deceptive truth about the new religion. 10) And finally...have your devout followers tamper/interpolate with the ancient documents that are left so there will be mention of your created messiah in history.

Yes he seems to have a good grasp on the whole thing, Ill second that. (Q) would be a great messiah of SHIT. Lets call him the BIG (Beatified Incomparable Grandiosity) S.H.I.T. (Q) will you accept this honor? (and by the way if you refuse to recognize yourself as messiah of S.H.I.T. That doesnt stop the rest of us little S.H.I.T.s from worshipping you. Humility is an appealing trait in a messiah Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! )
