First things first – if I am going to be truthful (and that is what the quote says on the banner, which i’ll come to shortly), this is not the mystery project I have been working on.

If i’m being honest with myself, the mystery project is unlikely to see the light of day: It started out as a bit of sillyness, and developed into a brief foray into the world of CSS style sheets [fascinating I know...], based around a historical epic from the mid-1970s, mixed with the social networking site du jour

Have you guessed what it is yet?

No? Well here’s a screenshot of what took far longer than the idea itself – the main reason I haven’t put the hours in to get it completed.

Shame really :-(

But fear not! For I have been working on another mystery project – all freakin’ day in fact! Inspired by fuck-knows-what, but possibly seeded by the forthcoming census (religious question optional), I thought it was high time I started my religion. Obviously.

Lolism is what I hope to build into a new world religion. Okay, more accurately, it’s an attempt to get under the skin of the major religions, and find out why they still pervade our world – a world where anyone enlightened can easily see that religion is a questionable but controlling power in the world – that doesn’t really need it.

To be clear, i’m not talking about belief here; I understand the power of imagination and the beliefs that come from this, rather well (if I don’t say so myself); but religion is a topic that I am starting to think more and more about – check back tomorrow (hopefully) for thoughts about how it integrates into our society.

And by lol, I’m going off on one, when in fact I should just be promoting a fledgling website, and asking you to give it a chance.

It’s on facebook as well don’t'cha’know.
