Several new religions appeared in Asia during the 20th and 21st centuries, these new beliefs primarily to respond to people’s changing spiritual needs, faced with rapid industrialisation, urbanisation and the import of Western customs. In recent times, these religions have begun to exert influence over many, particularly one, Ahmad Farid Evangelism.

The Second Messiah
This religion is monotheistic, with the sole belief in Ahmad Farid as a second Messiah but recognises other divine beings such as Hannan Hucknall( the goddess of rollercoasters/frizzy hair), Shikin (the goddess of butt acne and cellulite), Azura (benevolent goddess of “susu”) and Mr R*j ( demi-god of thick moustaches). The system is similar to the caste social structure, Holy men/girls with moustaches occupy the top rung,the most famous one being Sofinah, known for her erratic moustache growth, these men are the brahmins or nobility. The next and most important group is the warrior class, the ninja muscle, they are the true evangelists, pure of blood and extremely muscular. Selection often involves complex procedures and those few who get ordained are considered the equal of angels, mortal parallels of these ethereal entities. These muscular men don headgear and are zealots in protecting the interests of the Ahmad Farid ideology. The higher level ninja muscle, which would be the equivalent of seraph status in angel terminology, are Ridzal, Zainal and Azmi. The holy trio are immortalised after their efforts in vanquishing enemies of Ahmad Farid Evangelism. These ninja muscle wield mind-control-like powers over the numerous followers of the religion and like the apostles, chosen by Ahmad Farid himself, spread the teachings of this great religion.
