nikolaos the wonderworker vs arius

I was never interested in Christian saints, but out of boredom, have read a book on their selected lifes. And then i have found an insider’s insight. When reading lifedoings of Nikolaos of Myra (more widely know by his nickname “Wonderworker”), a very popular saint in Russia, apart from his miracles with dropping golden coins to rich that have gone broke, i have found the following passage:
ariy
In short, at the First Council of Nikea, Nikolaos have punched Arius in face, and for this he was cast off the bishop-status, but after they have sleeped, eaten and talked to each other, the bishops decided to restore the miracle-doer in status, and make Arius the heretic.

Very little is known about Malaclypse the Elder, the namesake of Mal-2. The Principia Discordia merely mentions him as a “non-prophet” and that he was mistaken for a doomsayer when carrying a sign that read “DUMB”. His Holyday is Maladay. malaclypse the younger claimed this day, but being that he was the younger, he may have lost out. On the other hand, move your feet, lose your seat.

Malaclypse the Elder has an even larger role in The Illuminatus! Trilogy than he ever did in real life, being that reality didn’t get in the way of his activities in those books. In fact, he is an important shape-shifting character in the book, posing as Jean-Paul Sartre, Billy Graham, and the Devil. Continue reading
