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.

Farts, you seem to be missing the point of maybe logic and e-prime.

Oh, I know about.  I think it's a hoot and much better than the language that we've grown for ourselves to this point.  I just don't think it makes much difference either way.

Will we have E-prime versions of Finnegans Wake?  That's what I need to know.

Forcing poetry through E-Prime is missing the point, IMO.

I appear to never have said it appeared as what I consider the point most likely was to me.

What were we talking about?
or
What was the subject of the apparent previous conversation that we seemed to particpate in?

You were just about to explain why e-prime and maybe logic didn't seem ultimately that important, in your opinion.
