The Sacred Chao
19. jul 2007 02:05, BoJeg er blevet gjort opmærksom på, at min blog ser - så - lidt kedelig ud, og jeg har derfor nu forsøgt at peppe den op med et billede af etablissementet (allerøverst) og The Sacred Chao (øverst i menuen til højre). Udtales cow.
Nogle ting er indviklede at forklare -- og flere af dem, måske endda de fleste, er faktisk så indviklede, at de overskrider min dovenskabs-tærskel. Hvilket kan illustreres som følger:
Og The Sacred Chao er afgjort en af slagsen. Tillad mig derfor (at nøjes med) at citere fra Wikipedia:
***
The Sacred Chao is a symbol used by Discordians to illustrate the interrelatedness of order and disorder. It resembles a Taijitu (Yin-Yang) symbol, but according to "Principia Discordia":
The Sacred Chao is not the Yin-Yang of the Taoists. It is the HODGE-PODGE of the Erisians. And, instead of a Podge spot on the Hodge side, it has a PENTAGON which symbolizes the ANERISTIC PRINCIPLE, and instead of a Hodge spot on the Podge side, it depicts the GOLDEN APPLE OF DISCORDIA to symbolize the ERISTIC PRINCIPLE.
The Sacred Chao symbolizes absolutely everything anyone need ever know about absolutely anything, and more! It even symbolizes everything not worth knowing, depicted by the empty space surrounding the Hodge-Podge.

Femkanten symboliserer The Law of Fives:
***
The Law of Fives is summarized on page 00016 of the "Principia Discordia":
The Law of Fives states simply that: ALL THINGS HAPPEN IN FIVES, OR ARE DIVISIBLE BY OR ARE MULTIPLES OF FIVE, OR ARE SOMEHOW DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY APPROPRIATE TO 5.
The Law of Fives is never wrong.

Og æblet, hvorpå der står - på græsk - "Til den smukkeste", er The Apple of Discord:
***
An apple of discord is a reference to the Golden Apple of Discord which, according to Greek mythology, the goddess Eris said would go "to the fairest" at the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, sparking a vanity-fueled dispute between Hera, Athena and Aphrodite that eventually led to the Trojan War.
The Original Snub is the Discordian name for the Judgment of Paris, which is described on pages 00017 and 00018 of the "Principia Discordia". In Discordianism, Zeus's belief that Eris was a troublemaker, which ultimately caused him to not invite her, is known in as “The Doctrine of the Original Snub.” The story explains the Discordian prohibition against consuming hot dog buns.
