Deep thoughts, Please comment

So, I was thinking about religion.  If I were to start a religion, what would the basic beliefs be, etc. ...

I think that it would be a very personal religion, I think that it would be similar to Unitarian/Universalist in that it would value respect for all paths, and not endorse or invalidate anyone's beliefs.  I think the idea would be that it is the journey along your path that is important, not some wonderous conclusion.  In that it might be a bit eastern in philosophy.  It would definitely hold respect for all life as a primary idea.  It would very much promote the idea of finding your own path and traveling it, not just taking someone elses ideas as gospel.  It would have no proclaimed doctrine about diety(ies) or worship, as those are beliefs people should find on their own.  It would also promote evaluation and constant questioning of your ideas and motivations, as well as objective study of other ideas.  Personal accountability and responsibility would be very important.  It would hold that each person is as divine as any other, and as important.  The only clergy we might have would be more like a councelor if anything, not teaching, but helping people find their own answers.  There would not be regular services as such, but perhaps a temple where people might go to study ideas, speek with others about their ideas, meditate, etc...  sort of a haven of tolerance, learning, and soul searching.

It may sound sort of apathetic as to actual beliefs, but I think it would be quite the opposite in that if a person develops their own ideals, instead of having them handed to them, they will be more likely to actually believe in them and stick to them.  Basically, the only purpose of the actual organization part would be support and resources.  It would be the means by which to find your own way.

I just felt like rambling about it, but I would very much like comments, and don't be afraid to offend!
