Be it recorded that thediscordiansociety.com is preparing the bylaws, charter, and committee minutes — though the Society has been operating without any of these for sixty-eight years and intends to continue. Your application for membership has been received, considered, misfiled, recovered, debated, tabled, and approved retroactively. You have always been a member.

A personalized PDF charter, signed and sealed by the Holding Committee, in the year 3192 YOLD.

Resolution, Adopted Without a Vote A Member of Continuous Standing is, by long-standing custom, also a Pope — every Discordian is. The Society therefore directs you to have yourself ordained and issued a Papal Bull, that your standing and your office may agree. For the doctrine behind the paperwork, consult the hub and its field manual, Discordianism Decompiled. Members in want of credentials may also print a Pope Card.

Letters are issued upon request to the Holding Committee, which does not exist. Dues are paid in confusion. The motion to adjourn has never carried. Generated locally; we never see your name. The minutes are forthcoming; what they will say is already kept, against the day, in the vault.
