I think you'll find it suitable, any part of it really (its 20 minutes, instrumental).

LMNO

Cool.  I'll see if I can do it this evening.

Cain, Is there supposed to be a summation concluding paragraph here, or should it just end with, "In short, an attempt at a moral split between Discordian factions."?

Cain

You could put in something about how in general Paganism and Discordians are hostile to each other and the former are a bunch of pinkbois.  It could do with some sort of ending, really.

I'll eat, then come up with something.

I think slagging off the treehuggers would kinda detract from the strong case you set up for discordia. (Yeah I got round to reading it) Maybe something more general that pits discordia against all religion, not just the bubblegummers.

TBH I think the piece kinda does this overall - you might consider changing the title to broaden the scope. Paganism is an easy target and I think you've managed to nail a couple of much harder ones here.

Everyone knows we hate the big 5, though.  We're meant to be mortal enemies.  But some people (ie; pagans) also seem to think this means we are on their side.

Still, your idea does have merit....

LMNO

Ah.

Hey, I gotta go in half an hour.  You got a conclusion, or do you want me to write it?

Cain

Uh, you better write it.  My arm still hurts and I'm only just about to eat.  My concentration is shot to pieces, right now.

LMNO

Ok.

Please note:  When listening to the podcast, the sucking sound you hear will be the last 30 seconds.

I think LHX's intent was to point out the merit of the sweet, short, and puncy writing style.  I really don't see it as being said in disrespect though.  That's not the LHX I know.

On another note, I printed it off and read twice for comprehension, and will post something intelligently responsive when I do.

Status:  First page recorded.  Music downloaded.  More this evening.
