&gt;The way to make a million dollars is to start a religion. -L. Ron Hubbard<p>also<p>&gt;You don&#x27;t get rich writing science fiction. If you want to get rich, you start a religion.<p>Still very true. If you want to hit it big, create a religion. See Tesla or Scientology for examples.

&quot;Religion is the opium of the people&quot;. Clearly, when one develops a product that rubs people the right way and inundates them with the right dopamine levels, one has achieved a product whose level of flexibility towards pricing, re-use and viralization is given.

If I was to unpack &quot;Successful People create Religions&quot; I would say it is composed of &quot;successful people create objects of worship&#x2F;adoration&quot; and then &quot;successful people create an ideology&#x2F;aesthetic&#x2F;brand&#x2F;thought paradigm which links those objects of adoration.&quot;<p>But that actually doesn&#x27;t match with the paradigms of some of the most prominent world religions, which despite being surrounded (in some sects more than others) by the trappings of object-worship, self-identify as explicitly about belief&#x2F;faith. Scientology does essentially sell a very-specific type of counselling insofar as it is transactional. Many &quot;prosperity&quot; churches, and the Roman Catholic church in the middle ages (and some would argue to a lesser extent today), sell promises of security&#x2F;eternity. But the majority of monotheistic faith and practice isn&#x27;t about creating objects of worship&#x2F;adoration and an ideology that binds them together. Fundamentalism is a symptom of transactional faith, just as entrepreneurship (great or mediocre) engenders faith in a product, and the transactional opportunity to acquire it. Religion that isn&#x27;t fundamentalist attenuates the acquisition of the object of worship.
