Our faith has many followers. Also, among religious communities, we are shown to put our money where our mouth is. We back our beliefs, as do other faiths, with charity/cash.

I am happy to be part of a religious congregation that, in the context of microfinance/lending to strangers (not for profit, by the way), performs admirably when compared with more popular, mainstream religions:

Pesto be upon him. Ramen
Edit to add: our demonstrated/measurable impact in the world refutes the notion that we have 0 followers.
- coding123 6y agoBut can I ask you, do you actually believe the FSM exists or is it more of a statement about how nutty religion can be? Because that's what Wikipedia says, not a religion, a social movement. "is a social movement that promotes a light-hearted view of religion and opposes the teaching of intelligent design and creationism in public schools" So, yes, followers maybe, religion no.
