You know...

...this may be a perfectly Discordian thing to say, but I'm beginning to believe that the children of Eris are less an in-joke posing as a religion as they are a religion posing as an in-joke. What may be more disturbing to my rational side is that it's all making sense to me... perhaps I've been attracting Her attention more than I think.

in-joke as religion as in-joke

You are perceiving a duality where none need exist. Like the worm Ouroborous, the snake eating its own tail, we are, if I may be recursive:

x posing as y

posing as:
if x is "a religion" then y is "an in-joke"
else if x is "an in-joke" then y is "a religion"
else FIVE TONS OF FLAX
x posing as y

on into infinity, or perhaps next Tuesday. E pluribus unum, caveat emptor, cacatne ursa en silva, E-I-E-I-O.

Fnord. Perhaps that is still the best way to describe a Discordian.
