I've boiled it down to six basic tenants.
1. The religion will be called Gastianitism.
2. All followers of Gastianitism follow the ways of Yemen God.
3. Gastianitism has no affiliation with the country of Yemen.
4. Marriage does not exist.
5. Something blue must be worn every day, but hidden from the world.
6. ...
I only thought of five, but one of the tenants was going to be "everything is clustered in sixes." That is one of the tenants, but not the 6th tenant. One problem I've always had with religion is the sheer obviousness of it all. Gastianitists must act spontaneous. That can be the 6th tenant for now.
A little about myself before I made up Gastianitism. My middle name (and the one name I prefer to go by) is Robert. I was raised Protestant but converted to Judaism for a little before going back to Protestant. I've never liked either and dont know why I went back to one. There was no path to express my religious creativity. I'm 24.
Each post I will be relating my day to the tenants of Gastianitism because each day should relate to all the tenants or Varom will get angry (I'll explain who Varom is on another day).
Today: The religion will be called Gastianitism.
As a Gastianist, I no longer drive a car, hence the suffix, Gas. This also works as a double entendre because the world will be aghast at Gastianitism. That's not a pun.
Really, I just wanted a cool sounding title. Judaism sounds like Judo. Muslim sounds like music. These things have nothing to do with the religion, but the titles make it appealing.
Keep in mind I've been sitting alone for three days, completely making this stuff up. I don't know how the world will react. I don't know how I'll see the world. Maybe the sky turned a different color. Not that I believe that will happen, but I could have unlocked something here. It's astronomically unlikely, but why not me? Everyone had an opportunity to come up with this, but I did first. It could all be wrong, but there's a 50% chance its right.
Gastianitist don't see the world. The world sees them.
Noses high.
