Before I was a Discordian, I took life much too seriously. When you take life too seriously you start to wonder what the point of it all is. When you wonder what the point is in life, you fall into a trap of thinking there is one. When you think there is a point, you finally realize there is no point. And what point is there in living like that? Nowadays I skip the search for a point and find, instead, the punch lines.

I smoked pot in college and in the Army...
I, as a responsible adult human being, will never concede the power to anyone to regulate my choice of what I put into my body, or where I go with my mind. From the skin inwards is my jurisdiction, is it not? I choose what may or may not cross that border. Here I am the Customs Agent. I am the Coast guard. I am the sole legal and spiritual government of this territory, and only the laws I choose to enact within myself are applicable
If 'god' is a metaphysical term, then it cannot be even probable that a god exists. For to say that 'God exists' is to make a metaphysical utterance which cannot be either true or false. And by the same criterion, no sentence which purports to describe the nature of a transcendent god can possess any literal significance.
Religion becomes a state of mind achievable in almost any activity of life, if this activity is raised to a suitable level of perfection.
The work that Christ started but could not finish, I - Adolf Hitler - will conclude.
'Fringe' is a sci-fi show. But once you go beyond the genre, you're immersed in a profound reality.
If organized religion is the opium of the masses, then disorganized religion is the ***** of the lunatic fringe.
Goodness its the kind of work I come to the Fringe to see
