Let's get creative here, I haven't thought about this too much other than the concept but let's brainstorm here and put together:
1) Our ? (s)
2) The whole explanation for how we get here ( background story )
3) What we believe - Women should be voluptuous and have an hour glass figure, not a figure like hefty trash bag full laundry.
4) Rituals
5) Who or what we are opposed to? - Dark Energies and the Forces of Chaos.
6) Symbols
etc.
I am thinking for me, since we know no life would exist on earth without the sun, we should go back to come kind of sun worship. Nature is pretty cool too because it also sustains us. That needs to be in (my) list.
This has got be be ? fun, no boring ? allowed. If we are going to have some 'somber' rituals. I want there to be a lot of special effects and cool stuff to see and do.
This is what I have so far, I want some really kick ass looking good and bad guys in my religion too.
Like an angel with ? , a huge morningstar and a flaming sword.

Worship dark energy and dark matter.

With the bad reputation that religions get anyway for everything wrong in the world, you got your work cut out from you.

My religion would have 1 rule: no fat chicks.

Weekly devotionals between a husband and wife, where they will 'commune' with each other. ( after kids go to bed ). This is to be Saturday night. However, a quickie penance may be substituted in times of travel or plans with your friends come up that make Saturday not work but this must be done either 24 hours prior or the day after.
Some of you might have said daily but I'm living in the real world.

We should hold mass on mondays so we can watch football on sundays

Mondays? How about 'NoneDays'
Seriously, ain't nobody got time for that.
How about a sanctuary where, there are 'Priests', for a lack of a better word at this time, that are always hanging out ready to hear whatever ? is on your mind and they do some cool rituals also at certain times of the day.
If you can make it, great, otherwise. See you next time. -
1) Our ? (s) - Man
2) The whole explanation for how we get here ( background story ) - Big Bang - Evolution
3) What we believe - Science is the way, the truth and the life
4) Rituals - everyday, at a certain time, for an hour, all TV channels air what's going on in science; new discoveries and technology
5) Who or what we are opposed to? - mythical gods
6) Symbols - -
