Do you ever get the feeling that "free will" is a joke?
DO PEOPLE THINK YOU'RE STRANGE?
DO YOU??

ARE YOU ABNORMAL?

IF you suspect that things are much worse than you ever suspected--
IF the only thing you've been able to laugh at for the last 5 years is
the fact that NOTHING is funny anymore--
IF you sometimes want to collar people on the street and scream that
you're more "different" than they could possibly imagine --
IF you can help us with a donation --
IF you see the whole universe as one vast morbid sense of sick humor --
IF the current 'Age of Progress' seems more like the Dark Ages to you --
IF you are looking for an inherently contradictory religion that will
condone megadegeneracy and yet tell you that you are "above"
everyone else --
THE CHURCH OF THE SUBGENIUS
Could save your sanity!

This Contrivative Theology, computer-designed by precise mathematical
formulae to arouse the lowest instincts of the most intelligent and the
highest instincts of the least intelligent, is invaluable to all renegades
who, at any time, are on the Nether Edge of Insanity and can be made whole
only by develop their Wotan-derived seventh sense of Bludgeon Humor.
It is the ultimate secret order for those who "know better" but who
demand in their LUST for GRINS a spectacular, special-effects laden belief
system -'stuporstition.' It is a certified religion of scorn and vengeance
directed at THEM, the enemies of us Outsiders. It is "self help" through
scoffing and blaspheming, frenzied fornication and the Mockery of Graven
Images. The Church provides sure answers and miracles in the service of
SURREAVOLUTION.
