I'm not disagreeing but .. I'd say the same could be said for the ones that exist already.

From circumcision to exorcism, Inquisition to ISIS they have all done everything you have mentioned. Apart from "tradition" is there anything that really separates a new or old religion?

Catholic priests in the you-know-what context shows that being established don't mean jack.

Bill Marr said of the Vatican - "it's hardly the house of a humble carpenter".
