I was in the Church of the SubGenius in my twenties, which is an incredibly ridiculous way of putting it. I mean, it’s not like they made me go to services or not get enough protein in my diet. Although there is I think a tape of me at one SubGenius event doing the entire testimonial schtick and asking at the end, “Where are my Stark Fists of Removal?!?”
Anyway, gotta put this trailer for the documentary up. Fair warning: it’s going to be a bit… odd.
I was not in the Church .. but I had several friends who were .. sorta.

In hindsight .. man, those were some strange days.

For a joke religion, it was far less annoying that the Flying Spaghetti Monster twerps.
The FSM people generally don’t understand that you need a basic empathy with your target to tell the best jokes. Or even consistently good ones.
Personally I like how the Church of the SubGenius was made an Illuminati group in the Y2K expansion set for Illuminati.
