Church of the SubGenius
(body, humour)A mutant offshoot of Discordianism launched
in 1981 as a spoof of fundamentalist Christianity by the
"Reverend" Ivan Stang, a brilliant satirist with a gift for
promotion. Popular among hackers as a rich source of bizarre
imagery and references such as "Bob" the divine
drilling-equipment salesman, the Benevolent Space Xists, and
the Stark Fist of Removal. Much SubGenius theory is concerned
with the acquisition of the mystical substance or quality of
slack.
