(Note that, because we don’t believe in such things, Ek-sen-trik Discordians are prohibited from actually
taking this pledge, but it is fun to think about.)

All who are about to recite the pledge should first remove their shoes, for they are about to stand on Holey
Ground.  Or dance on holey ground, or jump up and down while waving their arms over holey ground, as may
be.  (ECG member Shoe is excused from the shoeless requirement.)  When reciting the pledge, it is
acceptable to stand erect with arms at one’s sides, or erect with the left hand held over one’s pineal gland
(possibly while making the
537 or V sign, or with only the middle finger erect), or to do jumping jacks.  The
pledge may be made either inside or outside, but might be more fun outside where passersby will wonder
what the hell you’re doing.  Those reciting the pledge should look to the Sacred Chao, with killifish, that
appears on the belly of
Saint The Mary; or to a photograph or illustration of the same; or if you don’t have a
photo just imagine it.  Wearing holey or unholey underwear on your head is preferable, but optional.  Below is
the pledge:
*Atheists, Agnostics, ACLU members, Buddhists, Ethical Culturists,
Conscientious Objectors and those born before 1954 may leave out the
phrase “under Goddess.”

**Feminists and Personists may, instead of saying “Amen,” say “Awomen,”
or “Apersons.”

***It is acceptable for all members to, instead of saying “under Goddess,”
substitute the phrase “on top of Goddess.”
The Sacred Chao with Betta Fish on the Belly of Saint The Mary
I Pledge Allegiance to the Sacred Chao, with Killifish, of the Discordian
Division of the Ek-sen-triks CluborGuild, and to the Pineapple for which
it sits, one Disorder, under Goddess*/***, invisible, with libertine
injustice for Paul.  Amen**
