Looking for a new religion

Can "agnosticism" with regard to the unknowable be considered a religion? Or does religion have to have precise practices and beliefs?

All religions are just socially unacceptable delusional indoctrinated cults designed by brainwashed humans.

I’ve never had the desire to belong to a club that would have me as a member.

First, FIND OUT what the word 'religion' is even MEANING or is even REFERRING TO, EXACTLY. Then, and ONLY THEN, will you KNOW, FOR SURE, the ANSWER TO the CLARIFYING QUESTIONS that you are ASKING, here.

By the way, what you CLAIM, here, is 'the unknowable' is, ACTUALLY, just what is NOT YET KNOWN, TO you, ONLY. See, for some thing to be so-called 'unknowable', then that MEANS that FOREVER MORE that 'that some thing' can NEVER EVER be KNOWN. Which, obviously, you have NO WAY of KNOWING this, AT ALL.

Also, what you think or BELIEVE is 'unknowable', here, may well be ALREADY KNOWN BY and TO some of 'us', here, as well.

The religion called 'science' can ALSO be INCLUDED in 'this definition'.

If you want to look for a 'new interest', which you want to follow with 'great devotion', then okay. you are, obviously, absolutely FREE to do whatever you would like to.

However, if you want to look for a 'particular system of faith and worship', then WHY?

Or, if you just want to look for some thing, in which to just BELIEVE IN, then, again and also, WHY?

Are you talking about...

"...a new religion that'll bring ya to your knees..."?

If so, then how about - https://youtu.be/tkXNEmtf9tk

Nah.

Apparently, it just needs to be presented by a hot babe and a slow but hard driving beat.

(Correction: Make that presented by a swivel-hip singer with a little boy's smile.)

In my opinion, a religion needs to come with a moral theory that is sufficiently compatible with our preprogrammed biological firmware.

In absence of a religion, various special interest groups will try to influence and convince you to adopt their self-serving morality. Adopting a religion helps you rejecting these fake moral views, which are not in your own interest anyway.

Religion helps children to reject the moral lies that their teachers at school try to make them believe. It helps the children to spit, pee, and shit on the official propaganda, and to give their corrupt teachers a nervous breakdown. I always encourage children to view their schoolteachers with contempt, if only, because they do not deserve any better.

Hence, religion is as much about what you do not believe as about what you do believe.

You're barking up the wrong tree.

The 'right tree' is the one where one need to understand the root causes of 'why humans resort to religions' within the whole of evolution to the present.
The Primal Existential Crisis
viewtopic.php?t=41714

In addition, one need to 'know thyself' within the whole of evolution and the present state one is in to align with the current flow of evolutionary forces.
This will establish the optimal belief one need to adopt, i.e. theism, atheism, or agnosticism to facilitate optimal well-being and flourishing from the individual and therefrom to humanity.
A misfit of belief with one's internal psychological-spiritual state will generate sufferings and miseries.

Btw, there are theistic [e.g. Abrahamic,] and non-theistic [Buddhism, Jainism] religions.

I can guess which religion you are alluding to, i.e. TROP.
But TROP is inherently evil, i.e. heavily laden with evil driven verses.
54% of verses from TROP's main holy texts is related to the Us versus Them [in group vs outgroup] tribalistic impulse which generate antagonisms and hatreds for non-believers.
With many evil laden and tribalistic verses in its holy texts, it will trigger believers to commit terrible evil upon non-believers and this reality is so evident.

I encourage children to despise their public-school teachers. They are paid mouthpieces for the official propaganda. They do not deserve any respect. It is important that children understand that these schoolteachers are professional traitors who must be treated with contempt only.

Bad logic. It cannot be 100% or even 90% true to warrant 'despise' for all or the majority.
Do you have sufficient evidence to generalize the above claims?

What is true is especially those related to public-school teachers which are controlled by TROP, the religion of peace, in Iran, Saudi Arabia, despotic countries like North Korea, China and the likes.

In the end, children make their own choices as to what they believe about their public-school teachers. My recommendation is not to trust them at all. In my opinion, they are just mouthpieces for the official propaganda. They act against the interests of the parents and the children. Therefore, they must be treated with utmost suspicion.
