New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
Thumper Forge will be in town promoting his new book The Chaos Apple: Magic and Discordianism for the Postmodern Witch and celebrating the book's release at Oktober's. There will be cake!
Intro to Discordianism 11:30 Am - 12:30 AM
Generally known as a parody religion based on the worship of the Greek Goddess Eris, Discordianism offers a surprisingly nonsense-free worldview, as well as a practical, postmodern take on occultism. Since its inception, Discordianism has quietly influenced everything from fiction and literature to electronic dance music... AND NOW IT CAN INFLUENCE YOU. (But only with your consent. Discordianism totally respects boundaries.) Topics explored will include the Discordian creation myth; the Five Discordian Elements; the Apostles of Eris; the Law of Eristic Escalation; and the Curse of Greyface and how to defeat it. We will also discuss why cockroaches make the best psychopomps.
