The idea is simple: Everyone works together to make up a religion by writing one fact about it in each post. If I catch that it's self-contradicting (or batshit insane), I'll make you start all over again. If everyone manages to get together a total of 100 non-contradictory facts, you win. Now since you probably are eager to get started, here are the rules:
1. Only one fact per post.
2. Do not double-post
3. Number your posts to keep track of how many you have down so far.
4. Don't blatantly copy existing religions (inspiration is fine).
That's all! Just go ahead and post!
