Discordia Hail Eris Goddess of Chaos and Confusion Malaclypse the Younger &Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst $14.00 DISCORDIA is
the holy book of The Church of Pentaversal Discord, a hilarious and
provocative
parody of religion that reveres Eris the goddess of chaos and
confusion.
Like all major world religions, Discordia has a ponderous hierarchy of
pretentious titles to confuse, awe and madden. Every man, woman,
child and platypus—living, dead or otherwise—is an
honest-to-goddess-Pope
of Discordia, and thus infallible. So make sure to get your Pope Card!
By believing every sort of contradictory thing, Popes make these things
True and Manifest as opposed to True and Unmanifest, and thus bear
forth
the Great Joke.
There are trivial truths and there are
great truths.
POEE (The Parathroanametamystikhood of
Eris Esoteric)
is not registered, incorporated, or otherwise chartered with the State,
and so the State does not recognize POEE, which is only fair, because
POEE
does not recognized the State.
The State is the kind of organization,
POEE Legionnaires disciples are
authorized to initiate
others as Discordian Society Legionnaires. Priests appoint their
own Deacons. The Polyfather ordains priests but no one knows
about
the Popes. There are no particular qualifications for ordination
because
if you want to be a POEE Priest then you must undoubtedly
qualify.
Who could possibly know better than you whether or not you should be
ordained?
The words you are now reading are your
ordination.
The POEE Mysteree Baptismal Rite is not
required
for initiation, but is offered by many POEE Priests to those who desire
a formal ceremony. An Episkopos of the Discordian Society is one who
prefers
total autonomy and creates her own Discordian sect as The Goddess
directs
There are no rules anywhere. The
Goddess prevails.
Remember this: King Kong died for
your sins.
Grasshopper always wrong in argument with chicken. According to The
Honest
Book of Truth, all statements are true in some sense, false in some
sense,
meaningless in some sense, true and false in some sense, true and
meaningless
in some sense, false and meaningless in some sense.
Verily! Verily! Hail Eris!
