In many ways, Religion is kinda stupid, right?
but instead of leaning away from it
let's dive in
head first
Let's exercise our right to be wrong
Let's juice the religious experience for everything it's got.
Because IF beliefs are sacred, even the stupid ones,
BOOM, a bunch of really stupid shit is now sacred.
A lot of atheists come into Discordianism because it's this great joke on religion.
And then
when you feel where this headspace is,
you can see there's something else
beyond
and you don't need to go to church for it,
you don't even need to really believe in a god to tap into it,
it's this chaos inside
which can become anything
and listen–if there are things in this universe
that are irrational
then our rational minds deceive us
into thinking that whole Enlightenment routine
can bust down any wall
but hey, you try reasoning with the clouds
I'm sure they'll come around.
listen,
some stuff in this world is sacred
and I don't know what sacred means except
a connection between
heaven and earth,
the conceptual and the material,
the body and the spirit
and some stupid shit is sacred now
finally
finally the bibles are molding on the shelves
finally the traditions have worn out
finally the parade is over
finally god is off the pedestal
finally we are in the driver's seat
finally a roach will save me
finally, flying baby shit
I like it.
I like it too!

I might take a crack at this when photoshop is done crashing.
