THE EPISKOPOSES
MMMMMMMMMMM Everything has pretty much been stated about the members in general of The House, except: How To Become One. If a Legionnaire wishes ascendance into The House, he must first prove that he has a profound understanding of Discordianism. This is really necessary, for an Episkopos (unlike a Legionnaire) can do just about anything he wishes IN THE NAME OF THE DS. The only thing that he cannot do, is override The Golden Apple Corps. So, present yourself for examination before The Golden Apple Corps; and if it feels that your Erisian Judgement can be trusted almost-unconditionally, be trusted, then you will be ascended. The easiest way to present yourself for examination, is to write a Holy Work, such that you feel it demonstrates your ability to be an Episkopos, and present it to The Corps--actually, this way is preferred, we like Holy Works. Ascendance into The House can be authorized only by The Corps. One priviledge that an Episkopos has is that of giving himself titles, such as Bull Goose of Limbo and Protector of Switzerland (Lord Omar's title) or Omnibenevolent Polyfather of Virginity-in- Gold (Malaclypse--The Younger's title). Like your Sacred Name, your Sacred Title is a very personal and individual thing and should be chosen with care. Furthermore, he can also head depart- ments of the Administry and title himself appropriatly; and he can officially usher in new Legionnaire Converts; and ascend Legionnaires to Disciplehood; and all others everything. As an Eristocrat in The House of the Apostles of Eris, an Episkopos should carry his Honor with the appropriate dignity.
