[Closed] Lets make mountain biking a religion

might get us off a few jail terms as well

First of all, you're already too late as the questions have been set.

Secondly, this is old - there was a movement to get Jedi Warrior recognised last time around.

for some it's beyond religion

I'm against organised religion.

But

Mountain biking would be a disorganised religion.

just joined!

I've seen the light!

disorganised sounds right up my street i'm in!

Sorry I'm an athiest 😀

don't be silly, it can be proven that it exists therefore it can't be a religion

If mountainbiking is a religion, how long, d'ya think it will take take before it splits into separate warring sects; the Downhill Jesuits, the Hassidic singlespeeders, the Shiite all-Mohammed-to the mountain freeriders?.... Ahh! I see it already has! 🙂

Me?,I'm a Zen Buddhist XC extremist.

Personally I face Glentress when I pray, and make weekly pilgrimages to holy mountaing biking sites, I follow a code of ethics and I often try and convert non-members to my Mountain Bike religion!

No, really, lets not make it a religion at all. That's lame and stupid.

disorganised religion.

that gets my vote.

there are tax benefits to being classed as a religion

well, mountain biking has changed my life far more than religion or its dismissal ever did 🙂 But it doesn't need churches or organisation or doctrine

says the self styled leader of the Boggies 😉 .... you even have a constitution, rules and an AGM

rules more honoured in the breaking 🙂 And more of an ad hoc chaotic happenstance than an organisation :o)

And before they put you right, I'm not the leader but the dogsbody 🙂

No more lame and stupid than any of the others.

I might get out on the bike more often if I can tell the wife I'm off to 'church'!
