As with every discordian is the same with every seeker of Ra.
Every discordian was their own 'wanderer story' of how they discovered and experienced discordianism.
Because of this no two discordians are alike. amongst other reasons.
My favorite Discordian family, the loveshades, whom i actually found a deep resonation with them and Ra..... they Are a shining jewel of an exception from alot of the discordians.
From: www.loveshade.org
We believe:
* In personism, accepting an individual as an individual
* In the responsibility of the individual to society
* In the rights of children to be raised with love and
discipline to prepare them for life
* In personal freedom if it harms no one
* In harmony, accepting differences in a spirit of love
Who we are:
We are a family and friends related not necessarily by
blood, but by ideals. We support personal freedom
working in harmony with responsibility. We are
personists, writers, artists, political activists, philosophers,
photographers, performers, and clowns.
Who they are and their beliefs define them.
Although it is one of their famous traditions to say, "It is my firm belief that it is a mistake to have firm beliefs"
and also the famous
"I take it seriously to take nothing seriously"
While Most of the discordians do walk a path of light and love, they will at the same time 'pretend' to walk a path of darkness and hate. Although for most discordians this is simply an illusion to manipulate the spirit of confusion within you... Some of the hateful discordians are actually genuine so you must beware.
Hence discord= Anarchy, chaos, Confusion.... ect....
This practice is called Cognitive Dissonance.
(from wiki)Cognitive dissonance is an uncomfortable feeling caused by holding conflicting ideas simultaneously. The theory of cognitive dissonance proposes that people have a motivational drive to reduce dissonance. They do this by changing their attitudes, beliefs, and actions.[2] Dissonance is also reduced by justifying, blaming, and denying. It is one of the most influential and extensively studied theories in social psychology. A closely related term, cognitive disequilibrium, was coined by Jean Piaget to refer to the experience of a discrepancy between something new and something already known or believed.
And As a Discordian Myself, please do not let the words or actions of some of my brothers and sisters force your bad opinion down upon all of us. Sometimes you have to take the good with the bad. That's life for you.
