WHAT THE H E L L DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?
It should be painfully obvious by now that the world as we know it
won't last too damn much longer. And what are you doing about it? Going
to work or school, coming home, goofing around. What will happen to your
routine when all the shit comes down on us at once? Don't you feel
responsible for trying to help this endangered planet?
No? Good. The fact is, it's too late. There isn't a god-damned thing
you as an individual can do about eco-disaster, nuclear death,
overpopulation and so on. Things are going to Hell on a fast train and
about the only thing you, or anyone else besides the Rockefellers, can do
about it is to just sit back and watch the show.
But remember - the End of the World may be much worse and take much
longer than you thought. The mere act of sitting at home watching
everything fall apart on your TV may be too much for even the stoutest
brains to take. In fact, the more alert and intelligent you are, the
quicker you'll likely be driven to suicide by the sheer hideousness of what
you'll be seing. WILL YOU BE READY?
WILL YOU STLL BE SANE ENOUGH TO LAUGH WHEN "THAT WHICH MUST COME TO
PASS," COMES TO PASS? WILL YOU EVER GET SLACK??
Study our SubGenius "literature" closely. Keep it by your toilet and
memorize it. If you aren't as dense as most people, you'll be quick to
realize that, cheesy scam though it MIGHT WELL BE, the Church of the
SubGenius is just about the only organization around that can help you face
the god-awful facts without some kind of ingratiating, sweetness-and-light,
goody-two-shoes, pollyanna, life-is-a-bowl-of-cherries bullshit. NOT ONLY
THAT, but the Church of the SubGenius is beyond the shadow of a doubt THE
ONLY TRUE RELIGION. We perform miracles, answer ANY questions, invoke
demons, and have a direct etheric hotline to the space god JEHOVAH 1
through our infra-psychic trance-babbling Personal Savior, J. R. "BOB"
Dobbs--who is actually a pretty regular guy, just very rich and possessed
by forces greater than Man.
The SubGenius material has only recently been made public. This is
your chance to get in on the ground floor of a huge, lucrative cult--NOW,
while the rates are low, so that you will not only receive the immediate
benefits listed on our Application Coupon, but will also be eligible for
all the $$$, weird sex, drugs, and sheer POWER OVER OTHERS that go with
high-ranking membership in what will probably sweep this unkempt planet in
an unstoppable wave of cynical, dangerous power plays, insanely morbid
truths and panhandling, zombie-like teenage "followers."
For the sake of what little you still hold dear, we urge you to submit
this application so that we may determine if you are worthy to receive the
closest thing to salvation you'll ever get a whiff of.
(If you are rich, your money can buy you your own
personal Church and Congregation. Write for details.)

Caution! Warning! Disclaimer!
Because the SubGenius inner mysteries, dark rites, abhorrent rituals,
loathsome secrets and repugnant initiations reach into the so-called "evil"
and "conspiratorial" realms as well as the ordinary, unforbidden sciences
and magicks, they must never be allowed to fall into the wrong hands.
There are some things Man was not meant to own, especially Regular Man;
while the use of SubGenius concepts and tools may be informative, amusing,
and effective in gaining Something for Nothing, THEY ARE NOT TOYS.
I therefore swear that I am at least 18 years of age and, furthermore,
that I will keep private all reading matter, taped discourses, graven
images, and other cult secrets. If I do not uphold this ancient trust I am
prepared to meet the Stark Fist of Removal.
