Are we a religion $0 YMMV

I mean....

I am a pretty devoted follower of slickdeals and its teachings like...

1. Check slick deals before you if you wake up randomly
2. Buy first then figure out what you bought after
3. Don't Call the store
4. Why not is only $x.xx

We have very righteous leaders who advice us on living and help us.

I am just wondering what would be the next step to get us officially recognized as a religion?

If becoming a religion isn't a deal can someone more creative than I please put together a 10 commandments of Slickdeals.

Oh and if you have nothing better to do please insult me and call my post stupid.

Thanks

*edit put price and YMMV in title

You need to strictly follow the teachings of the eldest members and start finding virgins to sacrifice...

Get to work!

wipe a mans butt and he will not smell. Teach a man to wipe his own butt and he will not have greasy cheeks if you are not around.

It's already a religion you slow poke. The Ferengi from Star Trek follow it.

"The Ferengi concepts of the afterlife are a mirror of their pursuit of wealth in life. When a Ferengi dies, he is said to meet the Blessed Exchequer, who reviews the financial statements of that Ferengi's entire life. If he earned a profit, he is ushered into Ferengi heaven: the Divine Treasury, where the Celestial Auctioneers allow him to bid on a new life. Ferengi who were not financially successful in life are damned to the Vault of Eternal Destitution.[3]

When a Ferengi prays or bows in reverence, he holds his hands in a bowl shape with his wrists together. A typical Ferengi prayer begins with this phrase: "Blessed Exchequer, whose greed is eternal, allow this bribe to open your ears and hear this plea from your most humble debtor." As is typical, this is accompanied by placing a slip of latinum into a small statue made in the Exchequer's likeness.

Ferengi make regular pilgrimages to Earth's Wall Street, which they view as a holy site of commerce and business."

"The Ferengi concept of conducting trade and business can be best described in the episode ""Treachery, Faith, and the Great River". It introduces the Great Material Continuum, a metaphor in Ferengi culture that describes trade as the binding force of all life in the universe, where there are "millions of worlds, all with too much of one thing and not enough of the other."
