Idea for a religion

So many of the world's miseries are the result of irrational religious beliefs and evil that men do in the name of God. It's time to introduce rationality into our lives in a more tangible form. It's time for people to build temples of rationality. Although I'm not sure who will finance the building of these temples.

An Idea for a New Science

For lack of a better term, I shall label this as Vitagraphology. Vitagraphology is a science that shall deal with studying life graphs of people. A life graph is the curve you get when you plot a person's fortune over his/her span of life. For plotting, the life graph one needs a lot of information about the person. By studying many such life graphs, we can find out a) What kind of people share the same life graphs? b) Are life graphs repeated at all by the creator? c) Do life graphs follow an equation? d) If so what is the equation? e) If one arrives at such an equation, can we predict the future course of a person?
