A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
When we take into consideration the fact that a belief in the Trinity is absolutely essential to salvation, how unfortunate it was for the world that this doctrine was not established until the year 1274. Think of the millions that dropped into hell while these questions were being discussed.
Robert Green Ingersoll (1833–1899) American lawyer, freethinker, orator

SubGenius Glossary 9/2/2026: Sacred Doctrine of Erasability
Sacred Doctrine of Erasability- The Church and its members can change doctrine at any time because of this directive. This keeps them from being pinned down and ensures the Church - like the genetics of its’ members - is ever-mutating. Also a great way to ignore ideas that didn’t make money or were just stupid. Besides everything is stored in The Skor anyway.

A doctrine insulates the devout not only against the realities around them but also against their own selves. The fanatical believer is not conscious of his envy, malice, pettiness and dishonesty. There is a wall of words between his consciousness and his real self.
