Product Description

This book is the bible of Discordianism...the worship of Eris, the goddess of Chaos. This book contains subversive truths, absurd lies, guerilla philosophy, and several naughty words. Open mind before reading!

5 out of 5 stars Notes on this edition, my favorite

The original Principia Discordia was very much mish mash of near random pages thrown together, and the pages themselves were changed and modified. I've always felt that it should be a continually evolving book, and with this edition including newly created pages, it hits closest to the spirit of discordianism (at least in my opinion).

The other editions I've seen present it almost as a relic of the past, as something to be looked at, and fondly reminisced over. The purple edition did a great interview with one of the creators (and 3 of his personalities if I remember correctly), which is nice, but too stale for me.

I'm sorry to see it out of print.

In summary: This edition of the Principia is particularly good because it features added material, all in the style and theme of the original.

Side note: If you want better reviews of this book, look for the reviews of for the purple and yellow editions (by Omar K. Ravenhurst, and Malaclypse et al, respectively). All editions feature the same original content.

5 out of 5 stars MONKEY PIES DEMAND MONEY FOR EXPERIMENTS

This book changed my life. Before the PRINCIPIA DISCORDIA I was a 'normal'. NOW, my friend, now I am so much more. I once thought in a linear fashion, easily controlled by the reality bots, now, now I think in I like this book 'cause it is good to die in the raining it's pouring the old man left the nursing home, ellipses.

5 out of 5 stars Fnord? Nah, but better!

All Hail Eris All Hail Discordia

5 thumbs up, and 23 fingers

this is great, buy it, read it, go crazy
