That's because I am a punk, Deux Ex Machina . . . which is is slightly better than being a punk-ass bitch, like ya self

Alright, so I'll argue for the Big Bang then . . .

It's obviously true because contracting isn't any fun . . . and wasn't there some theory about static on radios and televisions being radiation from the Big Bang?

And all those exploding frogs in Europe must be going up for some reason . . .

I do too - but I can still argue against it if you want, I can argue against anything.

I've forgotten myself.

I'd love to argue, pick a topic.

Ok, so anyone interested in answering my original question?

Any further comments about Crowley will be ignored by me, lest someone should lure me into an argument, and then brand me as a troll.

I think Bulgakov's Master and Margarita is vastly overrated . . . although maybe I am missing some of the cultural relevance.

Hemingway sucks ass though, all around . . . his dialogue should only be repeated by robots, and his forced machisimo is adolescent.


Toronto is vastly superior to anywhere in the Prairies, but of course you're going to think otherwise . . . personally I don't enjoy spending my time with bigoted right-wing rednecks, but hey, that's just me.  Toronto isn't perfect but its better than anywhere else in Canada, other than Vancouver.


And I enjoy that disagreeing with people on a Discordian forum gets me branded as a troll (apparently a specific troll) - I suppose the correct way to be Discordian is to parrot whatever the loudest asshole on the forum is spouting.

I think it would also be worth pointing out that if you start an argument on a thread I started it's not exactly accurate to describe me as the troll.

For the record, I don't even put a lot of stock in Crowley, but I don't think he was a quack, or full of shit, or would ever attempt to insult anyone who did. That was you, MY CHILD.

Hey everyone, someone just learned a new word!

Do you need a definition of Dogma?  I would be more than happy to suply you with one.  Even a few, if you ask nicely.

Down down . . . simmer . . . breathe . . .

Attempting to explain to you Crowley's definition of magic is not dogma, my child.  

You can't make ridiculous statements like those about Crowley and think nobody is going to challenge you on them.

Wow, you just get better and better . . . what's your idea of some fascinating reading The DaVinci Code?  Harry Potter? The Nanny Diaries?

1.  That's not magic, that's just self-inflicted mind-fuckery.

We're just getting into semantics here, bucko.

2.  If you can't understand the baryon conservation principle, how can you understand discordianism?  Blow me, punk.

That's not a very witty response . . . I toss an apple at you and you come back with 'blow me'?  You fail the test.


Now, would anyone care to get back on topic?

1.  If you ain't done it, you should try, and see what happens.
2.  What exactly do you think Crowley's claims were?  Because I think you might have a misconception about Al.

He claimed to be able to work magicK.  Now, define magicK.

I think you are misunderstanding what magic "is" . . . Not that shit David Blaine does . . . its a very personal re-forming of your own mind and consciousness.  It is taking the bull by the horns, and swallowing it.  You own your own mind (some might say you ARE your own mind) so why not control it, instead of having it control you?

You create all the reality you see, why not have fun with it?

If you can't understand Crowley, I don't see how you can understand Discordianism.

They must have been focusing on Chapter 69 of Crowley's Book of Lies.

Crowley was a fraud.

And who isn't?  Define your terms.

A person who can deliver on his/her claims?

Oh, I think he delivered on his claims . . .  e.g. the decline of
Xtianity in the civilized world, the wiccan and neo-pagan currents, the
the Oriental upsurge in the West, all show his influnce...  the OTO¬† keeps growing...

And if you don't understand his writings, I think its unfair to blame him, it's a poor worker who blames his tools.  His writing is all hidden behind riddles, codes and puns . . . its not intended to be light reading.
