Happy 5/23, Spags!
Happy ... what do we call this thing? Discordian day? I dunno. Happy 5/23. When people ask me why Discordians celebrate 5/23 I always come up blank. We just like those numbers, I guess?
By the way, I started a tumblr account. If you enjoy watching an endless procession of bizarre images, come check it out: http://cramulus.tumblr.com/
Wholly Chao
Progress happens BECAUSE of antagonism, not DESPITE it.
In his treatise on the Senses, Lowenstein inadvertently sums up modern civilization:
deify define each other!"

Our story is becoming complicated... for each muscle moving a limb one way, there is at least one other moving it in the opposite direction. The biceps which flexes our arm is counteracted or antagonized by the triceps, which extends or straightens it... They receive on every occasion exactly opposite commands from the command center. When one is made to contract by proprioceptive reflex, its antagonist is made to relax simultaneously. All movements are smooth and are carried out within the safety limits of the load-bearing capacity of muscles and tendons.Almost every political discussion: "Man, we biceps are pushing so hard... imagine what we could accomplish if we just got rid of those pesky triceps...." So wait a minute, Cramulus... are you saying that evolutionary biologists NEED creationists? In some ways, yes -- for a controversial idea to "win", it must engage and overcome the controversy. Evolutionary biologists need external criticism; the challenge becomes a platform for them to publicly make their case. Opposition is necessary within science, too. Without the antagonistic peer review process, there is no science. Ideas must be tested before their truth is visible. It's worth noting that the space race was a direct result of the cold war -- competition between political entities. More on that point from Neil DeGrasse Tyson ... Our fuel for putting a man on the moon was Fear of The Other, not thirst for knowledge. I often hear people lamenting the state of things, then assigning blame to some political faction. As if our problems would quickly resolve into utopia if the democratic party (or any other faction) had unchecked political power. No no -- we NEED those spags across the isle to find the weaknesses in each of our ideas and to be exemplars of what needs to change. The edge is always messy, so it's hard to see how today's battle becomes tomorrow's status quo. The Civil Rights movement was a response to real racism - if everybody was rather polite about disliking smudgy colored people, the movement wouldn't have had meat to sink its teeth into. Occupy didn't make headlines until the cops started busting heads and pundits made weak arguments against it. Lao Tzu grabs the handlebars of his bike and shouts: "Good and bad

(Remember, this cellular structure is a fundamental part of the origin and success of Discordianism). Annotated Principia Discordia – Page 24-25 – POEE Priests
I love the elegance of "A POEE cabal is exactly what you think it is." There is no purpose or definition assigned. A cabal doesn't have to be a group of mystics, or secret agents a la Illuminatus. If you and your friends get together to play board games every week, and you have fun doing it, you could call it a cabal.
Malaclypse takes special care to divorce himself of any real authority. He encourages people to come up with alternate interpretations of Eris' word. He gives out ordination certificates, but they're basically meaningless. He seems to enjoy wearing the leader costume, but is careful to hold that role at arm's length.
From what I've read, Greg Hill (the guy who plays Malaclypse in this book) had a love/hate relationship with Discordia. When he wrote the Principia, he said he was possessed by the spirit of Malaclypse. This character helped him articulate the things he had been thinking about as he grew up in the suburbs of California in the 1950s and 60s. Many years later, when the work was done, Malaclypse left him. (note the concordance with Aliester Crowley's Aiwass, the entity which Crowley claims wrote The Book Of The Law).
In anecdotes about Greg Hill, he sounds totally annoyed with the Discordian Society. Rev. Loveshade approached him in the 80s (?) and the man sounded like he was done with it. He didn't want to be the guru anymore. Robert Anton Wilson's alter ego, Hagbard Celine, voices the same thing when he steps down as head of the Lief Erikson cabal in the Illuminatus! trilogy.
Hagbard lowered his eyes for a second and gave a Sicilian shrug. "O oi che siete in picdoletta barca," he said softly, and bowed. "I'm still in charge of nautical and technical matters," he announced, "but Miss Portinari now succeeds me as episkopos of the Leif Erikson cabal. Anyone with lingering spiritual or psychological problems, take them to her." He lunged across the room, hugged the girl, laughed with her happily for a moment and placed his golden apple ring on her finger. "Now I don't have to meditate every day," he shouted joyously, "and I'll have more time for some thinking." -The Illuminatus! Trilogy
I love the phrase "World Council of Churches Boutique" It sounds like a store offers samples of various world religions.
The warning about money illustrates the main difference between Discordia and the Church of the Subgenius.
