Summary[edit]
| Description |
J. R. "Bob" Dobbs is the figurehead of the Church of the SubGenius. His image is derived from a piece of 1950s clip-art. According to SubGenius dogma, "Bob" was a drilling equipment salesman who, in 1953, saw a vision of God (JHVH-1 according to Church scriptures) on a television set he had built himself. The vision inspired him to write the "PreScriptures" (as described in the Book of the SubGenius) and found the Church. The "theology" holds that "Bob" is the greatest Drill Bit salesman who ever lived, and has cheated death a number of times. He was assassinated in San Francisco in 1984, though the Church states that he has come back from the dead several times since then. (Pulled from Wikipedia) And relatedly, I am invoking the Fourth Clause of my right as a Pope to de-excommunicated all of you into Popehood. "The rights of a =POPE= include but are not necessarily limited to: 1. To invoke infallibility at any time, including retroactively.
2. To completely rework the Erisian church.
3. To baptise, bury, and marry (with the permission of the deceased in the latter two cases).
4. To ex-communicate, de-ex-communicate, re-ex-communicate, and de-re-ex-communicate (no backsies!) both his-/her-/it-/them-/your-/our-/His-/Her-/It-/Them-/Your-/Our-self/selves and others (if any).
5. To perform all rites and functions deemed inappropriate for a Pope of Discordia. |
