Reasons To Go Discordian: Part 1

Freedom of religion means you can believe anything you want and people have to treat it seriously. But there’s a limit to that, right? At a certain point somebody’s going to say, “No, that HAS to be bullshit.” Discordians gleefully hop that fence and run naked into the wild. It’s a blast, you should try it.

Seriously, if religious freedom protects your the right to, say, oppress homosexuals, it can probably be used for some awesome things too. Awesome things nobody’s thought of yet.

    i propose that we do awesome things that we have already thought of (to get the moss stone rolling) like i feel we have perfectly legitimate religious reasons to use a variety of (and therefore in this pope’s opinion ALL) entheogens from cannabis to lsd, ayahuasca and DMT, trance, dance and pastamance.

    the trick is that it would be blasphemous to act seriously in the face of those “normals” who think we’re mad. sounds like a fun game :-)

  2. I like this quote:

    “Freedom of religion does not give you the right to believe in nothing.”

    – Rev. Jimmy Weldon, 4 July 43 N.A.

    No that HAS to be bullshit – a planet of your own after you die? Pffft…

  4. Freedom of religion means others can believe anything they want and you have to take it seriously. But there’s a limit to that, right? Right?

    I like to think Discordia starts when you say, “Yes! That HAS to be bullshit!” And then we place fake cameras on the fences and dance clothed in the streets, singing in her reign. You’ll get blasted at by the police; you should try it.

    Awesome things:

    Having a mother and father who are both trans*.
    My Little Pony-themed bar mitzvahs.
    Sex-dolls made of bacon.
    Mountains of cocaine.
    Becoming the police you want to see in the world. “Get down! And get funky!”

    If your child has the right to say gays aren’t natural, mine has the right to say Christians are only good for lion treats.

    The fifth comment congratulates the previous comments, the OM (Original Meme) and wonders how we’re radicalizing- i know i am having more thoughts which i attribute to “talking with Eris”

    do you suppose it is time to announce ourselves to the world and get on interfaith panels and shit? bc that’s what i’m doing but i need to make myself a silly hat.
