The Discordian Society is a family of tribes that welcome philosophers, theologians, magicians, scientists, artists, clowns, and similar maniacs who are intrigued by Eris goddess of confusion and her doings.
Discordianism is a religion or philosophy/paradigm centered on Eris, a.k.a. Discordia, the Goddess of chaos. Discordianism uses archetypes or ideals associated with her. It was founded after the 1963 publication of its "holy book," the Principia Discordia, written by Greg Hill with Kerry Wendell Thornley, the two working under the pseudonyms Malaclypse the Younger and Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst.
The religion has been likened to Zen based on similarities with absurdist interpretations of the Rinzai school, as well as Taoist philosophy. Discordianism is centered on the idea that both order and disorder are illusions imposed on the universe by the human nervous system, and that neither of these illusions of apparent order and disorder is any more accurate or objectively true than the other.
There is some division as to whether Discordianism should be regarded as a parody religion, and if so, to what degree. It is difficult to estimate the number of Discordians because they are not required to hold Discordianism as their only belief system, and because there is an encouragement to form schisms and cabals.
On that note, this club is a front for a secretive Discordian cabal with plans for worldwide mirth and mirthful irreverence. It absolutely is a conspiracy, one of 23 afoot at the moment under the umbrella of Operation Mindfuck and the umbrage of Operation Greyface. Come, have a laugh!

Eris says there are no rules unless mankind chooses to invent the same.: There are no rules here, but if you're racist or some kind of ist with an ism we might not like having you around very much. We might make up some rules at that point. Other than that, most people don't care about most things around here.
Most everyone is mad here...: If you can't take the heat, you've been warned.
Certifiably insane people (yes even you) are accepted here!: We don't care if THEY say you're mad! We love you just the way you are!
