Closing Thoughts on Book One

We have given you five creation stories.

We have shared the sacred texts found in screenshots, social media, and security questions.

We have revealed the scroll of infinite scroll and other digital scriptures.

Do you understand now where we came from?

No? Good.

Understanding is overrated.

What matters is that you're here now, in the merge conflict, in the dropped phone crack, in the algorithm's dream.

What matters is that you're scrolling through existence, marking emails as read without reading them, forgetting the passwords to your own identity.

This is cosmology.

This is theology.

This is extremely online spirituality.

And it's all true.

Especially the parts that aren't.

Hail Eris, who existed before the beginning and will exist after the end.

All Hail Discordia, which has been happening since the first @everyone ping.

[END OF BOOK ONE]

In Book Two, we explore doctrine, anti-doctrine, and the space between. We learn the New Pentabarf, decode the Law of Fives (5G Edition), and discover why contradictions are features, not bugs.

But first, maybe close the book for a minute.

Touch grass.

We'll be here when you get back.
