Hey Zack,
Your first buck automatically made you a SubGenius Whizmaster-- The TRUE highest level of the Church Hierarchy under Grobbs... definitely NOT one of the TRUE 13 Apostles, though...that franchise dried up ages ago. Sorry.
L'il Philo G'Broagfran, Jr.
P.S. You could, however, still be the one true UNKNOWN 14th apostle.

Oh, don't listen to Stang...he's just starting to hallucinate from all
the AntiSleep involved in coordinating a video shoot, hour of Slack dub,
and Stark Fist printing all at once. Doktor can be anyone; it said so in
the Book, then Stang contradicted it, and now *I'M* saying it, so it's SO
until someone else says it's not. So there.
Besides, it IS like a Bobbie to worry excessivly about "violating Church
protocol" by misusing a title! What's next? Being afraid to lie about
"Bob" to get another $30 for the ol' P.O.Box? Hell, I publicly claim to
have cofounded the Church, and I do it with a clear conscience! And
anyone who doesn't like it can just kill me.

I often claim to be a "Bobbie" for "Bob". There are some things I do in
the name of "Bob" which is totally appropriate and in keeping with my
schizmatic view of the SubGenius Religion, but other SubGeniuses scoff at.
I figure by calling myself a "Bobbie," I'm pissing off those no good
two-bit pobuckers with delusions of reality in the best way!
If you'll notice below, I've reinstated my status as a DOKTOR and will
continue to do so until grey matter flies. Anyone who doesn't like it can
kiss my bohiney!
Slackfully Yours, DOKTOR Zachary Carleton
Clone for Bob and little known Fourteenth Apostle

the previous posts on this thread conserned the 'title' of Doctor.
Pastor Craig sez:
In the Book of the SubGenius pg 162 it says:
"Doktors are masters of the Flesh. They are creative in the arts of
music, image and love; whereas Popes lean to the amoral, Dok-
tors are often Good-Bad -- i.e., of deep Good alternating with
deep Evil. Doktor make supurb AntiVirgins and Healers of
Appliances."
However, the Book of the SubGenius was wrong in this case:
A SubGenius title is something you claim for yourself and if they don't
kill you, you get to keep it. I cast scorn at any who would say that
a SubGenius HAD to be this or HAD to be that to have a title.
I once talked to Stang on an idea I had for the church to make more
money: Offer little merit badge like rewards for doing churchly things.
Things like answering correctly a quiz after buying and listening to a
Hour of Slack tape. Things like creating some audio collage that got
played on the Hour of Slack. Buying the books and passing a quiz.
The key word is buying by the way. Stang pooh pooh-ed the idea as not
being cost effective and too likely to bring in Bobbies.
I think IMHO that he just didn't have the time to work out the details
or to supervise someone else working out the details.
But the POINT is that is was a Bobbie idea because a true sub doesn't
need merit badges and doesn't need specifications for his religious
title!
