I wouldn't call myself a religious person. Never have been. Quite the opposite. My family left their homeland because of religion. My mother’s sister killed herself because of religious mechanisms. I have more stories than I can muster the strength to talk about. Simply put, I'm not Gods biggest fan. Not the Christian, the Jewish or the Muslim one. But I am not without faith. I have faith.

In the same way Apple don't have a monopoly on making music players, major religions don't have a monopoly on faith, morals or goodness. I have faith in people. Me and my non-religious friends have a very high sense of morals and an incredibly strong sense of right and wrong. That is why I would like to suggest the following.
•    Take all the things you like about your faith of choice. Right them down, make a list.
•    Take all the things you like from all the religions you feel have something to say. There might be something from Christianity, something from Buddhism and something from Islam that you can relate to. Make another list.
•    Now write down all the things you believe in that aren't part of any religion. Make a third list.
•    Decide that there can only be one follower. Meaning you. No more people can join.
•    Put all the lists together. If something doesn't fit, cross it off. If something's missing, add it.
There. You've started your very own belief system. If you feel that the god of your religion is superfluous, take her, him or it out of it. If you feel like it you can burn the manifesto to ashes and not have a religion at all. Or have it just sometimes. You decide.
