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.

He also had HUGE BRASS BALLS.

What he DIDN'T have:
1.  Any sense of self-preservation or concern for his troops.
2.  Frontal lobes.
3.  Artillery.

When Kitchener has to show up and show folks how it's done, ya done fucked up.

This is true.

However, he did stop the Darfur insurgency by riding into the enemy camp and giving them a stern talking to.

Also, his religious beliefs are amazing:

QuoteHe was an eccentric who believed among other things that the Earth was enclosed in a hollow sphere with God's throne directly above the altar of the Temple in Jerusalem, the Devil inhabiting the opposite point of the globe near Pitcairn Island in the Pacific. He also believed that the Garden of Eden was on the island of Praslin in the Seychelles.

Upper class Victorian Army officer.  He doesn't need reasoning, he has eccentricity.

Ah eccentricity. The state of being wealthy enough that people cant bring themselves to call you the weird lunatic that you actually are. Its endearing and cute oddness.

Fitting perhaps, that Charlton Heston played him in Khartoum.
