1. Eris
The Greek goddess of Chaos, Discord, Confusion, and Things You Know
Not Of; her name was latinized to Discordia and she was worshiped by that
name in Rome. Not a very friendly deity in the Classical original, she was
reinvented as a more benign personification of creative anarchy starting in
1959 by the adherents of Discordianism and has since
been a semi-serious subject of veneration in several ‘fringe’
cultures, including hackerdom. See Discordianism,
Church of the SubGenius.
