Discordianism is a modern, satirical religion that celebrates chaos and disorder. Founded in the late 1950s by Gregory Hill and Carrie Thornley, it centers around the worship of Eris, the Greek goddess of discord. Discordians believe that chaos is a fundamental aspect of life and that embracing it can lead to personal freedom and enlightenment. The core text of Discordianism is the Principia Discordia, which combines humor, absurdity, and philosophical ideas. Followers often engage in playful rituals and pranks, emphasizing the importance of questioning authority and societal norms. Ultimately, Discordianism encourages individuals to find their own path in a chaotic world.
