Discordia as a Religion?

[hooplala]

Exactly.

Let's start something new, Nigel.

Hoopla,
I'd be interested to see what you've got going for your altar to Eris.  I have been considering the same thing.
Has anybody here chosen to believe in Eris as an actual personal entity?  I've been thinking about doing that.  I imagine it would take some effort and time to convince ones self of something like this, but i'm sure it could be done with the proper rationalization and filtering....

[Verbal Mike]

I see Eris as a metaphor, except a little more real than normal metaphors. (i.e, I don't see the metaphor as just a matter of rhetoric, I do think of her as something that exists, in a sense.)

I only believe in Eris when it is necessary, the rest of the time she is all metaphor to me.

Currently my alter is nonexistent.  I have a small statue of Kali, and a small book of . . .  things . . . which will have to go anonymously for the time being.  There is a gentleman in Toronto who makes statues which look very ancient greek, I am saving some money right now and will soon commission him to make me an Eris statue.

What I plan for the rest is to get every image of Eris I can find, and either print them out nicely, or copy them by hand... the statues, obviously, my book, a small ceramic bowl for burnt things, a larger bowl I can fill with Golden Delicious apples, and candles.

I am working on some attributions at the moment, and when I am finished I will be using them to fill it all out (incense, blackthorn, images of snakes, and whatnot...)

So... its mostly in my head at the moment.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Exactly.

Let's start something new, Nigel.

WITCHES 4 ERIS

I see Eris as an archetype. For whatever that's worth.

I don't have anything specifically Eris-y on my altar. I have a cast iron pot for burning things, a statue of Pan rampant, an African bird goddess statuette, a cock-shaped rock, a Pollen Boy, a bell, a cup of water, an incense burner, a knife, some paper, some candles, some tobacco, cedar, sage, and kinnikinnik, as well as a bunch of other crap that varies.

I know people that believe in her as real. Heck if people can believe in Xenu, Eris is child's play.

Can we also be color witches?

SURE what is a color witch?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I like crayons!

Oh poop... you haven't seen A Mighty Wind?

They talk about color witches in it.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Damn it, I have not. I will add it to my Netflix!

[hooplala]

It's a good time!

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I added it.

Do they have a presence on the intarnets somewhere?

What kind of insence matches Eris?

*needs a new scent, or a way to get Astha thats not in sample packs

Edit: Had the name of the sampler they keep tormenting me with in packs of Nag Champa wrong.
