The FBI’s Review of Kerry Thornley’s Oswald

According to the FBI’s book critic, W.A. Branigan, reviewing Kerry Thornley‘s book Oswald: “This book by Thornley is not a good piece of literature.

The following article previously appeared in a slightly (chemically altered) form in Psychedelic Press Issue 23. The handful of veiled (or perhaps not-so-veiled) drug references in the Principia Discordia include the ritual of Blessed St. Gulik the Stoned (pages 00027 and 00040), an allusion to a Discordian pot smoking ritual.

The most pressing problem is that scholars have neglected the majority of Discordianism’s primary source materials, and are thus unable to provide the necessary contextual understanding for the readily available texts (and web-resources) they do study. The […]
