COUNTLESS PERSONAL SAVIORS!!

The SubGenius knows, bulldadaistically, that each human should do Jehovah's
work exactly as He reveals it to them, and that He has wildly varying
messages for different people in different situations. By the same token, it
is madness to accept any one 'personal savior' - even Dobbs - as a permanent
guide. The greatest of the inventions of the SubGenius is the SHORT DURATION
PERSONAL SAVIOR, or "Shordurpersav." The True SubGenius accepts into his
heart, as his own personal savior, anyone or anything with which he happens
to be impressed at the moment. Shordurpersavs change from hour to hour, whim
to whim. It could be the hero of a show you just saw, the author of a filthy
book, a bottle of Thunderbird, a good pal, a car, a dog, a sex object, a
friendly croaker who scripts for you. Not professional gurus you are locked
into believing, but temporary ones according to the need of the "Now. " They
change so fast that it never gets embarrassing, you aren't inclined to
'proselytize' them off on disinterested others who will later laugh at you;
you know their effects will wear off in minutes (even though the very idea is
unthinkable while under the Influence). One needs not mention them at all - a
superb Tenet, since one is sometimes deeply ashamed of oneself for having a
particularly unsavory Shordurpersav: some few can be Personal Saviors and
False Prophets at the same time.
