Principia Discordia
This is the book that started the Discordian movement. Its the Discordian “bible” God is a crazy woman, called Eris by the ancient Greeks, and called Discordia by the ancient Romans. This is a very subversive anti-dogmatic satiriacal look at religion and mysticism and a lot of fun. My original copy came from Loompanics and was borrowed by Tristan Gutsche, along with my Ren and Stimpy video tapes, and my escapologist’s thumbcuffs . I never saw him again. . I eventually bought my new copy from Amazon.
