What's the right faith for those who clamor for spirituality, but strain at the confines of organized religion? Discordia -- described as a religion disguised as a joke disguised as a religion -- may be the answer. Starting from the "firm belief that it is a mistake to hold firm beliefs,"Discordia lays out a tongue-in-cheek plan for worshipping Eris, the Greek goddess of discord. Loads of laughter and paradox are key to keeping the faith, as well as counter-evangelism, surrealist pranking, and the presentation of absurd rewards to distinguished individuals. Packaged in a trendy new edition,Discordia brings an underground classic that has sowed chaos for 50 years to a new generation of neo-pagans. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Right. I bought this book for my Pope-in-training sister, not knowing what I was afflicting her with. I'm far happier with the copyleft version I printed from the Internet-- at least THAT doesn't have mispellings galore and ugly, grainy graphics. The fonts change several times per page, probably in an attempt to be 'wacky' and 'chaotic'-- it's just annoying. The graphics that weren't ganked from older editions of the Principia are bland things, often with a bit of poor photoshopping slapped on. The original graphics, like the application for the Bavarian Illuminati, are nigh-well impossible to read.
The idea of copyrighting something that one can find in a .5 second Google search is, frankly, absurb-- and not in a good, Discordian way. This edition takes itself far too seriously for its own good.
Don't buy it. Print your own, or hunt down the Loompanics version. And while you're at it, jake the author.
