TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

I dont know in which BiP thread it came up, about language and metaphors.

this article basicly picks up what some guys here said.

It seemed to be a quite good artice, though, i didn't read it through yet.

gone through it and its not that good.

First paragraph is quite good, i think our world is definitly build and limited by our language, which is a vast collection of metaphors. Also i think language is one of the main influences to how we experence things.

You can't learn about a society without learning the language.
