Title: Dudeist church?
Post by: TravisE on January 07, 2010, 03:03:10 AM
So, I was checking in for my doctor's appointment where I got diagnosed with (super) classic migraines, and given a prescription, when the gal behind the desk asked me about my dude-fish patch.  After my spiel she asked if there were any local (San Francisco) Dudeist churches she could go to.  I should have said, "Any bar that serves White Russians."  Maybe next time.

maybe by next time she will have seen the movie, and rattle off a quote like

"Could you slide your shorts down mister Lubbusski?"

A Dudeist church would have to have four areas: bowling lanes, a bar, a Dudeitation room, and a movie room for people to reflect upon the teachings of the great Jeffrey Lebowski.

There are Dudeist Churches all over the world. It's unmistakable when you walk in and hear the melody of pins falling.

What's a church anyway? A physical structure where one seeks spiritual relief? A location where a congregation gathers? A place where the nature of the ineffable is contemplated? If it is any of these places, then a Dudeist Church would simply be a bowling alley, a Dudefest, or a living room with TBL playing on the television.

The word church comes from the word 'ekklesia', which means so much as 'gathering (of the faithfull)'. So in our case, a dudeist church would mean: 'gathering of dudes'.

Anyway, fuck it, let's go bowling.

An Ekklesia of Dudes.  I like it.  Almost as snazzy as a Murder of Crows.

any dudeist church would need a full bowling alley, a grow room, and a cellar full of kaluha and vodka.  you can get the half and half at Ralphs.

And let's not forget: a rug to tie the room together, and a TV set with dvd player so we can watch the Big Lebowski (and other inspiring movies).

Yeah, we should have a cash machine there, in case we need to get our c*ck sucked for a thousand dollars... Oh, or a hundred if we want to watch...

I was taught the same. So in the basic sense there is a Dudeist church here, on this forum.
