Personal Narrative: Creating My Religion

Creating my own religion, this task does seem pretty fun. Well my religion would be very similar to the army and sports, it will contain structure, a need to compete/exercise, guidelines on how to treat others, and most of all it will be fun. There will be no reliance on a god/s, no prejudice against others and most of all, history will be made by each individual. And what I mean from that, yes there will be history but each person will be in charge of choosing their own paths in life.

The use of drugs and conducting violence comes from an inability to overcome obstacles faced in life. My religion offers solutions to each of these problems. It also incorporates schools, churches, and societal laws in order to achieve continuity across society as a whole. Everyone will understand what is expected from them, what is/is not allowed and where to find help
