Malaclypse the Younger, also known as Gregory Hill, co-authored Principia Discordia with Kerry Wendell Thornley (writing as Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst).
The book, originally published in the 1960s, established Discordianism as a parody religion worshipping Eris, the Greek goddess of chaos.
Hill's writing style blends absurdist humor, philosophical musings, and countercultural ideas.
His work influenced various artists, writers, and thinkers, particularly in the realms of chaos magic and alternative spirituality.
The Principia Discordia's unconventional format and content reflect Hill's desire to challenge traditional religious and societal norms through satire and surrealism.
