Re: A Reasonable Religion
David always seemed to have bit of an ego, but I never expected that he'd ever lay down tenets to a religion named after himself. Too funny.
If Sklankyanity is to have any legitimacy however, it has to have some trappings of organized religion: symbols, idolatry, rituals, texts, brochures, meeting places, a sabbath day, holidays, a mecca, an armed and fortified compound, church bureaucracy and hierarchy, political lobbies, myths of the afterlife, and of course, scandal.
There seems to be a few things going for it: you do have a creation myth and you also have fundraising mechanisms.
