See, having a faith is nice. It's cool. I'm a buddhist. I'm a Meccan. A wiccan. A Christian. A thisian; a thatian. It's so cool. So Imma invent a faith that I can use...
It's technically called "Principalism" because it is based on the Six Principles. So I've invented 6 principles, but Principalism has to have a cooler public name. I'm thinking Rococonutism. I could be a Rococonut. That sounds fun.
Here is the Byrnian Compass, the symbol of the Rococonut faith:
It's named in honour of David Byrne, an artist and musician who I like. Here's more about Mr Byrne > http://introdb.pen.io
The Ten Principles
1. The Sade Principle
2. The Promise Principle
3. The Moody Principle
4. The Kitololo Principle
5. The Winehouse Principle
6. The Friedman Principle
7. The Metamorphosis Principle
8. The Kindness Principle/O'Brien Principle
9. The Nazarene Principle
10. The Chapel Principle
The Ten Principles have nothing to do with Principalism but are based on an early heresy of the Rococonutism where Eight Principals in a cave on a Parot Card embodied 10 Principles. It's complicated. (Every faith should have something of an interesting history with intrigue and deception, and we are no exception.)
The 6 Principles
1. a balance of love and power
2. risky living
3. a passion that defines you
4. the fourth principle (ha ha, no actually it's this: soul)
5. collaborations with friends on interesting projects (yes, that's a principle of Rococonutism!)
6. a certain flair for dramatic presentation (it's a principle and an ideal; this faith has no requirements)
Now if I get into the mood, if the Spirit moves me, I will elaborate on each principle. That way you'll know what I mean when I say, "I'm not a non-believer, I'm a Rococonut!"
Good.
Oh, the name RoCocoNut "came to me" this morning. It's a reference to two very nice things, this > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rococo and this >
Nice, eh?
