I didn’t know what to expect when I started reading Principia. I was aware of Eris and her discordant ways, but can’t say I’ve ever thought on the concept of a Eris-centric religion. I do find chaos and entropy to be particularly interesting in their power to construct a more spontaneous and exciting world. As I read through the various incantations, by-laws, and statues of the religion of Eris, I began to get a sense of my own internal relationship with chaos and how much I enjoy being both an agent and recipient of entropy. I definitely intend to read through this book again with different eyes and new perspective some day, because I feel like there is always something new to be found in the comfort of chaos. If you need to get in touch with the entropy inside, give the Principia Discordia a read and then start cultivating that constructive discord!
