= Fudgalism = Fudgalism is a religion in which its members-the fudgalists-worship, celebrate, and praise their idol Fudge. It is their belief that Fudge created the universe and everything in it. Fudge is the father to Cocoa, his son that he sent to Earth, sacrificed, and resurrected on the fourth day to relieve us of our snis. Their Satan is Vanilla, as in, the opposite of fudge.

= Prayer = The Fudgalists pray to their idol Fudge. They begin their prayer by touching their forehead, mouth, and chest, stating: "Know him...eat him...and love him." They then pray to Good Lord Fudge. They end with "Nema"(ne-may), as in, Amen backwards. An example prayer: "Know him, eat him, love him. Oh, Good Lord Fudge, please have mercy on the soul of Uncle Ben. Help him to get through his sicknesses, and to be restored to his previous health. Nema. Know him, eat him, love him.”

= Bible = The Fudgalists have their own Fudgalistic Bible. It shares many key elements of the Christian Bible. The Fudgalists teach their people good characteristics like kindness, giving to the poor, and everything to help them attain Fudge Heaven.

= Hierarchy = The Fudgalists have a simple social hierarchy. At the top, similar to the Pope of the Christian faith, there is only one Grand Master Fudge, or for short just Grand Master. Second, where there are more but still few of, is a Master Fudge (or simply Master). Next, is the Priest. Finally, the People. Any level can promote those below to him up to at most his/her own level. They can also demote at any extent those below them, or-if they deem necessary-remove them from the faith entirely.

= Entering the Faith = It is quite easy to enter the Fudgalistic faith. A member of Priest or higher must “baptize” the new members. All that a joining member must do is agree to the pledge, as spoken by a Priest or higher, “Do you swear to renounce all evil in your life, above all, the evil brought by Vanilla? And do you swear to pledge yourself into the Fudgalistic faith, to be one with us, to help when needed, and to speak no evil of our faith? Do you pledge yourself to our brothers and sisters, to look out for each other, to eat Fudge on required occasions, and to obey those of higher command to you? Finally, do you pledge yourself to the Holy Trinity, of Fudge, Cocoa, and the Holy Sugar?” Assuming the members have answered, “I do.” to each question, the baptizer will then command, “Go then, announce the good word of Fudge. Eat this holy fudge, and then be fudge.” The members will eat the blessed fudge provided, and be in the faith. The lenient faith even allows for its members  to be part of other faiths. That is, to be, for example, both Christian and Fudgalistic.

= Holy Days = Fudgalism has several Holy Days in which its members are required to eat blessed fudge. Holy Days celebrate days such as when Fudge sacrificed his only son Cocoa, then resurrected him on the fourth day to free us of our sins and open the gates of Fudge Heaven. Or the day when the Holy Spirit blessed the followers of Fudge to speak in different tongues and to be brave, so that they can announce his good words.
