I wouldn't create one religion. I'd create 200 of the bastards. Every single one of them worshiping the same thing, but the interpretation of each differs slightly in the wording. Then I'd start inciting religious hate between them and watch as each one, convinced it is the one true faith, turns on the rest, causing a mass religious free-for-all orgy of bloodshed and violence.
When the last religion is standing, I'll deliver them the bad news, that I'd copied the religious text from the backs of cereal boxes and the companies who owned the copyright to them are now suing their religion for billions.
