Ok first off, someone grab a thesaurus or something and lets find a new name or phrase or some invigorating terminology. "Religion" is simply not going to cut the mustard.
We need to identify the good points about what we know of the religious faiths that have gone before us. weigh them up, brings pro's and con's to the table with reasons why for or why not.
Let's try to do it in point form, so don't just reply with what you perceive as a new version just yet. We need to do it together and then present it to the Global Community so they can all have some input. After all we want a truly global belief/behaviour system that can be adopted by everyone. It is all about uniting mankind as one, so I guess we should offer it up for dissection.
Remember "global" so keep it simple enough to have a common yet broad meaning and implementation. This could quite possibly be the longest and most time consuming thread in the Forums.
I will try to get the ball rolling with a few.
As I am a single parent, sex with minors should be a castration offense.
A persons privacy should be acknowledged.
The right to have free speech, but to respect the varying opinions of others.
The right to gather. but without intimidation.
The right to life. - This will get complicated when things like abortion and terminal illness come into play.
Reward should be equal to effort. - this will need further definition which will become clearer over time, when roles unfold. Reward itself will need to be defined. A quick thought on the topic could be reward based on time allocated or allowed for leisure versus work hours, shift, schedules etc.
hmm so many things to consider, I think I am drifting already.
With no money crime will not be the same as it is now. therefore punishment will differ.
Murder is murder but not always monetary based.
We are emotional creatures and this 'love' thing can really stuff some people up.
Property based murder will be redundant as we will all have same. Unless someone wants that top floor apartment that old bastard lives in... lol. (yes I would want one on top with a view of the snow covered mountains, rolling hills, wind swept fields, white sandy beaches and clear blue ocean. Is that too much to ask 
) Why me and not you, why you and not me??? sheesh we have our work cut out for us.
Would we have different relationships than we do now? Meaning the entire marriage thing is christian based?
We would need to identify whether it would benefit the human race to keep a couple styled set up as opposed to a free for all or one for many. If a man could have many women, then it would only be fair that a women could have many men, wouldn't it? Again this entire possession of another human by coupling perhaps should change. Would that mean some miss out altogether? eek scary. Although I guess some do now anyway maybe?
Perhaps a radical new approach, throwing off the 'old world' memories. Meaning get rid of the concept of coupling only coming 'together' as it were for breeding or ... shyte... help!!!
don't forget we are not just trying form a type of religion but more so a set of guidelines to live by and with our fellow man/woman.
we might have to deal with this in sections.
crap I think I have broken my own idea on format for this thread already...
hey there's one - Foul language is different all over so there is another global consideration.
Which brings to mind another... do we want to be all the same?
Perhaps we should just deal with one item at a time and thrash it out until we all have a common understanding and agreement upon it. Maybe that would be better.
opps it's daylight...
