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.

You've never heard of The Master and Margarita?

The Master and Margarita is a novel by Mikhail Bulgakov, woven about the premise of a visit by the Devil to the fervently atheistic Soviet Union. Many critics consider the book to be one of the greatest novels of the 20th century, as well as one of the foremost Soviet satires, directed against a suffocatingly bureaucratic social order.

Ofuck, that's one of Boots' favorite books!

I liked it, but I didn't like it as much as I thought I would.

It was pretty repetitive.  Sometimes I like that, such as in the Illiad, but in TMAM... not as much.

I only ever read the first couple of chapters.  Got sidetracked by other books.

Cheers for the link, Cain!

M & M is by far one of the most interesting, elaborate, nailing and beautiful stories ever written. TOP 5 stuff, indeed. Hope the miniseries comes even close to the original output.

oh fantastic
i'm just going to hope that this is still being seeded when i have good internet again.
My dreams when night falls silent are of you who will come after
would the birdsongs in the dawning be the echoes of our laughter.
