the last thing we need is another religion. All that’s required in this case is basic human decency, which religions have been appallingly bad at delivering.
It would not be a religion in a traditional sense, just a way to wrap existing ideas to exploit the legal protection of religion. The “rituals” are whatever members would be inclined to do anyway and fits the spirit.
Anyway, you’re probably right that it would be a bad idea in the long term. Every major religion has been abused by people from within or outside and I can’t think of effective safeguards for this one.
