Someone please educate me on Discordianism. I've read the Wiki article, but want to learn more from people like Paradox and Vene.
Chaos is as important as order. Eris is as high of a god as Zeus. Zen for roundeyes. People with another hot idea are encouraged to form their own sect and split off.
Did I forget anything?

The ONLY thing about it that ever really mattered to me was "A Discordian is prohibited from believing what he reads." I've always found it to be more of a mindset. Where you question everything, fuck with established rules (the more arbitrary the better), and try to confuse people enough to force them to think.

What? That's all it takes? Well I guess I've been a Discordian without realizing it then.
...wait, would that win some sort of Discordian point? o.O

Actually, all it takes is saying you're Discordian. That's the beauty of having no strict rules, just guidelines that may or may not be followed.

Eris is possibly my favourite classic Greek god; any sort of philosophy that gives her more credit is okay in my book. Then again, I am partial to all the tricksters: Coyote, Raven, Maui, et cetera.

You may also be a Discordian if you have not said that you're a Discordian. If you suspect that you're a Discordian or have an erection lasting longer than four hours, please consult your doctor.
