Temple of The Star Apple

WELCOME TO THE ROANOKE, VA POEE DISCORDIAN SOCIETY SECT

> Group Introduction and Discordianism Resource Link Library

Did you know that God is a crazy woman?
The Greeks called her Eris, and the Romans
called her Discordia, but you can call her whatever
you want.

She has come to tell you that you are free.

She is chaos. She is the substance from which artists and scientists build rhythms. She is the spirit that with which children and clown laugh in happy anarchy. She is chaos. She is alive and she has come to tell you that you are free. There is no tyranny in the state of confusion. There are no laws in the Discordian Society.

What is The Discordian Society?
The Discordian Society has no definition. It has been called a disorganization of Eris freaks. It has been called a guerilla mind theatre. A tribe of philosophers, theologians, magicians, scientists, artists, clowns, and similar maniacs who are intrigued by Eris goddess of confusion and her doings. Episkopos Randomfactor prefers, “The World’s Greatest Association of Whatever it is we are.” But all of us agree that we don’t know what we are.

Something that THEY won’t tell you is that every man, woman and otherwise on Earth is a genuine and authorized Pope. Take advantage of your position. Declare something already.

TEMPLE OF THE STAR APPLE CABAL
Welcome to the Roanoke VA POEE Discordian Society Sect, also known as the Temple of the Star Apple Cabal. We’re a small but lively group of Eris devotees, pranksters, philosophers, artists, and counterculture historians keeping the Discordian story alive in the modern day in our own playful way. We practice what we call “Confusionism,” which means spreading joy and nonsense through satirical protests, passing out “Cthulhu for President” pamphlets, crashing local conventions with absurdity, and even volunteering for good causes when the chaos calls for it. Our mission is to provide an educational resource to learn about the Erisian Movement; it's history, art and literature, and maintain it's memory for another generation to enjoy. All are Popes, and all are welcome.

Hail Eris!
All Hail Discordia!

Organization, Mission and Traditions
>Ranks
Priest: Leader of a Discordian Cabal
Deacon: Assistant to Priest in Events
Legionnaire: Member of Discordian Cabal

>Mission
Our mission as a cabal is to keep the history of Discordianism; it's literature and art, alive in public mind space for another generation. Maintaining it's memory through public artistic and theatrical performances of nonsense, and providing the public with an educative book club on the Erisian movement.

>Traditions
Our main tradition is to unleash divine nonsense upon an unsuspecting world. Through coordinated acts of nonsense —such as protesting “The Big Cheese” (an allegedly corrupt sewer rat), distributing campaign pamphlets for “Cthulhu for President,” joyfully infiltrating local conventions and concerts, and even volunteering for public service to help those in need.

Our purpose isn’t destruction or strife; but delight. We want to break through the heaviness and seriousness of the city, loosen up the rigidity of everyday order, and remind people that play and joy matter. By bringing a little chaos and confusion into Roanoke, we aim to balance out the excess order: one prank, one laugh, and one unexpected moment at a time.
