Definitions include: Freddieism is the religon that worships Freddie Mercury, and believes that Freddie Mercury is god. Most freddieists make shrines to our lord and saviour, Freddie Mercury in honour of him. Shrines are also where offerings and prayer take place. Offerings can be as little as a Percy Pig to as much as Nike Airforces. All freddieists pray by kneeling with their eyes closed in front of their shrine while listening to any respectable Queen song. All prayers must be ended with "Mama! Oooooh! Didn't mean to make you cry! And if I don't come back this time tomorrow, carry on, carry on!" or it is considered an offence to Freddie. Anyone can join Freddieism, and initiation is easy. You simply have to create your first shrine with pictures of Freddie Mercury and make an offering to him. Freddieists closely follow the punk ideology, and respect all LGBTQIA+ & trans rights. Instead of using phrases like "oh my god!", they use phrases like "oh, Freddie!". Freddieism is a vastly growing religion, and was founded in a public bathroom in England, where most great stories start. Don't be shy, join Freddieism today!
