My new Pope name.

I, Bishop Sanctimonious the Hypocritical, have been thinking hard of late, and I have come to a decision. My Discordian Holy Name does not have quite the authoritative ring to it that it should. I am a Pope, yet I style myself a bishop. And furthermore, the name itself just sounds like a total joke. I want to sound impressive to the cabbages and leeks that pretend to be human, so I need a new Discordian Holy Name. I shall still answer to Bishop Sanctimonious the Hypocritical, but from now on I shall set aside my bishop hat and trade it in for a pope hat, calling myself:

Pope Andrewsarchus the 23rd,
Founder of the 665th House of the Prickly Pentangle,
Collector of Loose Stones from the Paths of the Damned,
and Reincarnation of the Inventor of Toast.

What is a Prickly Pentangle, you ask? Well, it is a point-down pentagram made of barbed wire or something else prickly, like perhaps Himalayan Blackberry vines. It is the new symbol of Discordian Satanism, being that it’s a Satanic Pentacle with one of the Discordian elements (Prickle) represented.

Don’t ask me what the rest of the title means, I don’t know.

An Andrewsarchus, however, is this thing:
