Yes - Religion. Definition of religion:
Quote:

A religion is a set of beliefs and practices generally held by a community, involving adherence to codified beliefs and rituals and study of ancestral or cultural traditions, writings, history, and mythology, as well as personal faith and mystic experience. The term "religion" refers to both the personal practices related to communal faith and to group rituals and communication stemming from shared conviction.

So how is this not a religion? You are pushing a religion by definition. By thinking something, you are altering the universe to your needs - so it even fits the mystic powers portion! Get the picture yet?
And yes, people are running around making money off this Secret thing, so yes, they are getting their money! Guess they are getting robbed by the people that posted the vid though - Their Secret didn't protect them from the theft! :p
