Jihad (Not a Fucking Rant) Sermon 2: Greyface

[Irreverend Hugh, KSC]

Sermon on Eristicism 2: Greyface

There is a lot of talk about Greyface or greyfaces. Many of you take the idea too far and start to literally believe that Greyface, or the greyfaces, are somewhere out there. This is true but only up to a point. The thing some of you may have missed is that Greyface is, horror of horrors, inside ourselves as much as Greyface is somewhere outside.

I assert this as a corrective for those of you who like to go around calling everyone you don't like greyfaces. Come on now. You don't really believe that silly idea, do you? Do you really think that everyone else is a certifiable greyface and you yourself are immune from being so yourselves?

There is a little Greyface inside each one of us, and its size is in direct proportion to our egos (or how seriously we tend to tak ourselves). Why do you think they call it a "curse"? Those of you who refuse to recognise this do so at your own peril and you stand to let your pineal gland get all clogged up with your own special brand of "holier-than-thou" in whatever form it may take.

If that happens, rest insecured that Eris or one or some of Her co-conspirators or a combination of all three is going to make you into a good source of entertainment at your expense. (Hey, we don't have a lot of money so it has to be at your expense). And don't think that posing as an acid-prophet or some sort of hippy is going to save you from having to pony up and allow you to go around calling everyone else greyfaces. No my friends. That's not how it works here within the DJ (ASDABFAAB) movement of Discordian Society's OM. Their is no immunity from Eris, despite what She may tell you. Can't you take a joke anyway?

A wise and very silly poetical mad prophet by the name of Aleister Crowley called this problem or "curse" (if you will) of Greyface by the term Choronzon. Perhaps that will shed some more light on how confused we all are. But the implicit warning of the term Choronzon is that which we believe to be something outside and independent of us has many of its sources within our own fnord infested minds.

You can't try to avoid or banish something which you refuse to notice.

Perhaps we are here to help you with that.

The choice is yours.

Yor rants usually make me want to hit you in the head with a large chunk of concrete, but this time, I thing you really hit the nail on the head.  A true initiation never ends, and just 'cuz you have an epiphany one day doesn't mean you're in the clear.  Gotta rekonize the little Greyface in all of us.

Hit the nail on the fuckin head there, Hugh.

[Irreverend Hugh, KSC]

Hit the nail on the fuckin head there, Hugh.

But only because I have a sledgehammer. It kinda makes hitting nails on the head easier...

Just to be a non-conformist...

I think your post was full of shit.


Ok, now I can sheep it up.

I think you're right.  We'd never get stressed out about anything if we weren't at least a bit greyface...
