[QUOTE="Bohandas, post: 7979587, member: 7015707"] When was that. Because as I noted before the [i][url=https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~tilt/principia/body.html]Principia Discordia[/url][/i] proposed the idea that Order Vs. Chaos and Good Vs. Evil were distinct axes of behavior and explicitly rejected the identification of good with law or chaos with evil all the way back in 1963. "[i]To choose order over disorder, or disorder over order, is to accept a trip composed of both the creative and the destructive. But to choose the creative over the destructive is an all-creative trip composed of both order and disorder. To accomplish this, one need only accept creative disorder along with, and equal to, creative order, and also willing to reject destructive order as an undesirable equal to destructive disorder.
