What should the title be, though?
You could look at the upper boards for inspiration, there are new threads like that up there every week.
Let me get this straight...
Threads about religious tracts that make you want to bash your head against the wall regularly pop up in the upper boards?
I was thinking more about the "how to colonize hell" part Descan mentioned.
It is decided:

Even more technically, all literature, or in fact all works of art, are fanfics of real life.

He's wrong. Lord of The Rings started out as a simple, light Hobbit sequel, but rapidly took on more and more elements from the unpublished Silmarillion as backstory and became what it is today. The Hobbit, in turn, originated as a fairy tale told to his children, that he editied, expanded, and published (much in the same vein as Alice In Wonderland or Winnie-the-Pooh). The Silmarillion was written to give his made-up languages a historical and literary backing. There was a sense that T wanted to create a European mythology, and the general consensus is now that the events of the Middle-Earth books take place in the distant past of our world, but that's the closest thing to a real link, and it originated very late in production.
