If you think about it, that's a little creepy.

Didn't stop Jimmy Swaggart, did it?

He's still out there somewhere even today sellin' his *version* of salvation. We may
think he's full of shit, but some little old lady in Bumfuk Arkansas is getting
slack from it.

The Church don't TRY to sell you nuthin'. If you fork over your thirty bucks it's
your choice. They give you the opportunity to find your own slack. Something no
other religion's gonna do for you.

If you didn't find it, well I can't help you. No one can help you.

No it wasn't. It was revealed as a fraud before Dobbs hired Stang.

if slack makes you the bitter little asshole

you do obviously, but nobody needs a
bunch of bitter little whining crybabies
cuz I didn't get all that love from home type smarminess.

shitheads who woke up one morning dissatisfied with
their white collar luxury and decided
"slumming it" was the way to go.

go lay in the gutter for real.
don't just pretend.
come on, it comes naturally.
no effort is needed.

Uh, excuse me. I said "slack is all." I never said "slack is stupid."

before somebody accidently eats them for you.

Praise me.

For those of you who actually attended THE EVENT,
there is a bit of sweet irony in the above text. You
will recall that actual literal SHIT was sold at the
BullDada Auction (tm) for a cool $27,the supplier
informing the crowd that she had enjoyed peaches
for breakfast. Now don't you boys wish you'd been
there?

Yep. Hell. I ordained my CAR. Now, my car is fully authorised to carry out
all churchly duties. Anytime it wants to spontaniously drop its exhaust
manifold, well, that's within it's Slack. AND, anything my car says is
INSTANTLY True Church Dogma.

Anyway. $30 still gets you a big envelope of nifty crap, news on upcoming
devivals, a membership card which can be useful if used properly (I've
actually managed to flash the card on several occasions and get into
various "off limits" areas as police scenes, recently burned out
buildings, etc) and .. well, i get slack from subsidising weirdos. I'm
just funny that way, i guess. Every dobbshead ordered from the church!
Every alien head purchased from bill barker! Praise "BOB"!

Of course, i'd be happy to subsidise discordian endeavors, but none of you
erisians actually seem to *do* anything...

But, yeah. So the saucers didn't come... BIG DEAL. It was INHERENTLY BOGUS
from the get-go, and now it's even moreso... and it was accompanied by a
massive brain bending shit kickin' PARTY the likes of which ye sharl ne'er
see again (at least not for another 6663 years)... so i'd say it came
through FULLY. Gave me MY money's worth.

Some talk was ensuing later that morning after the xist no-show about this
shaking the faith of subgeniuses... if anything, it STRENGTHENED my faith.
It demonstrated that a bunch of subgeniuses can CELEBRATE like ALL GIT-OUT
for NO APPARENT REASON.
