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.

Subtract Eight!

are we:
1. between two ends of oneness (omg im so transcendental im pure energy duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude)
or
2. partway through an evolution to infinite complexity (big bang ---- all matter divides more and more until planets, humans, animal, and blackholes are created and so on...)

idk whatever you wanna input

Everything is pretty much made of the same stuff in different combinations. you've got protons and neutrons and electrons, which together make up the physical materia of the universe. You can reduce this down to even smaller particles, to the point where things get a little weird.

However, when things get REALLY weird is when you start jumping up levels. Emergence works like this: You get a whole bunch of similar parts together and interacting with each other and SHIT STARTS HAPPENING. You get atoms interacting with each other and soon you have stars and galaxys and planets and such. You get weird organic molecules interacting with each other and replicating and soon you have massive diversity of life, more than you could ever imagine. You get neurons in close proximity and connecting in many patters and soon you got consciousness. You get consciousnesses interacting with each other and soon you got economics, culture, society. The cool thing about the inherent emergent complexity in the universe seems to be its just so EASY. You get the right parts under the right conditions and eventually you get another level of emergence. This universe seems to be perfect for that sort of thing.  Infinite complexity is here, and its continuing to become more varied.

Go outside.  srsly.
