I will call it Submission.

The main tenet of my religion is that women must submit to men. Men will be able to have as many wives as they wish, and to divorce them very simply by saying "I divorce you". To help keep the women in line, though, they will not be able to divorce their husbands unless I say so. Oh, and their husbands will be able to beat them, but not around the face, because we don't want their looks to be damaged. Women will not be able to own anything, and their word will only be worth 1/4 that of a man.

They will be required to dress appropriately, in a fitting religious way, such as this.

I haven't decided if I will require collars around their necks or not as is properly befitting submissives. What do you think?

It is an inverted moral calculus that tries to persuade the world to demonize one state that tries its civilized best to abide in a difficult time and place, and rides merrily by the examples and practices of dozens of states and leaderships that drop into brutality every day without a twinge of regret or a whisper of condemnation. - Rex Murphy

The tenets seem pretty good, now you just need a solid backstory, and a couple loyal followers willing to kill anyone who doesn't submit.

The very first thing and by far the most important is to have an article or act of faith that you can sell.

Once a disciple accepts that, all the rest follows.

"In the beginning, God created the Heavens and earth...."

Science too hard for you? Try religion!

There is but one God, and his name is McPherson! He created the universe with a big bang, and anyone who insults him will leave it the same way.

Don't forget the tax benefits of becoming a church. Perhaps you can get your man-cave a tax exemption as a religious place of worship!

You'll never find women to embrace a crackpot religion where a woman's word is worth only one quarter that of a man!

Though I admit the dress code seems both sensible and fashionable.

I think I'll just stick with the Spaghetti Monster myself. Beer volcano's, stripper factories and of course Pirates! They also have a graph that proves everything, how can you beat that!

Pastafarians do seem happier than most.

I prefer my religion bland, mild and inoffensive so I'll start an Alfredo cult within Pastafarianism.

It will be like the United Church within Protestanism,.

Or maybe Unitarian.

The problem there is the Bolognesians. Sure, they aren't much of a threat now, but some are becoming radicalized. They take the promise of garlic toast in paradise seriously.

Is it time to KILL THEM ALL?.

I feel threatened by them right now, them and their filthy oily meat sauce.

Burka burka burka!!!

Heathens! Everyone knows paradise is full of garlic bread sticks not toast!

This reminds me of the hilarious Sky Cake bit by Patton Oswalt.

I will support any religion which gives as much holidays as possible.

I hereby decree only every Wednesday a work day, only women can be the boss, and McPherson cleans toilets.

Thank you.

Donations in the thousands are accepted for such edicts.

Why not, when a man can't get a word in edgewise in any conversion who cares that those odd words are worth more? The woman is still way out ahead.

How many do you want?

4 per month... also, 3 week-long religious festivals per year in addition. I would convert.

Like the tired, poor, huddled masses that trade allegiance to Jesus for some food or education from missionaries, I would pay lip service to a religion for those kind of benefits.

This is something that Liberals in Ontario have known for decades.

Economics trumps Virtue.
