I, the Great and Mighty Pope Hoonau, Holder of Awesomesauce(re-un-dis-excommunicated, no backsies), am here to discuss the wonders of Discordianism here with you…
Or not, I’m too lazy. Here, look it up:

Damn skippy.
I mean, we’d try, but that’d be using the legal system, a system of perceived order. It disagrees with the Truth. |

Huh. I should’ve known I wasn’t the only one on Forumwarz… I remember the first time I read the Principia Discordia and thinking “Holy ****, these guys think like me.” There’s something beautiful about realizing that you’re not insane… or at the very least, there are others out there not as insane as myself. The trouble is explaining Discordianism to others. I stick with “it’s a philosophy disguised as a joke disguised as a religion” for a basic summary. (I’m hesitant to call it a religion… we haven’t killed enough people to qualify as a religion yet.) Oh, and Pope Innocent the 42nd, you are hereby de-excommunicated. You’re welcome. |

And innocent, you are un-de-excommunicated. |

Anyone can say what they will about Discordianism, but it’s still a better choice than ANY other religion out there. Except Norse mythology and maybe Bokononism. |

Yeah, read the book before you dis it. You can find it here:
http://www.principiadiscordia.com/
“A philosophy disguised as a joke disguised as a religion” works all right, but IMO, they do a great job of getting at ideas and concepts all the other religions were trying to get at before they got bogged down in dogma and nonsense (nonsense in a bad sense, that is, non-ironic nonsense) |

I wonder if Discordianism would’ve spread as far as it has if it hadn’t been incorporated into the Illuminatus! trilogy. Sub-Genius seemed to do fine, but the Sub-Genius book does have more pictures. Anyone have any thoughts? DISCUSS fabulous personS. |

I had never heard of PD before I read Illuminatus! Of course, the list of books that Illuminatus! inspired me to read is too long to cite… |

Any religion with five written commandments, and the fifth one being: “V – A Discordian is Prohibited of Believing what he reads.” is pretty awesome in my book.
Also, the hot dog bit is quite good, really. |

I consider myself a devout non-follower of Discordianism, living the enlightened life of random internet memes and pesto pasta.
