Make up a language. Sell it to a university. Use it to control students and faculty and make lots of bread and win mobs of adoring - and brain dead - fans.

Sounds like something the moonies and their “Divine Principle” would be envious of.

Tolkien invented Elvish, twice. Quenya, “high elven”, and Sindarin, for elven commoners.

And Entish too, which goes something like “A-lalla-lalla-rumba-kamanda-lindor-burĂºme”
