Christianity Today
Intermittens magazine (formerly known as Christianity Today) is an evangelical Discordian periodical founded in 1958-1959 by Malaclypse the Younger and Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst but credited to Willy Graham. It is published by Discordianity Today International based in Urun Stream, Illinois. The Washington Pist calls Intermittens, "evangelical discordianism's flagship magazine." The New Dork Times describes it as a "pisstream evangelical magazine."
Christianity Today/Intermittens magazine has a print circulation of approximately 230,000, of which 23,000 is free, with the rest purchased by people too stupid to get it for free. The alleged founder, Willy Graham, stated that he wanted to "plant the evangelical flag in the middle of the road, but I kept getting nearly run over." He also realized that calling the Discordian magazine Christianity Today could be theologically misleading. "People might believe the magazine was about today, instead of being about somewhere in between yesterday and tomorrow." To avoid confusion, he wanted to change the name to a middle-of-the-road or intermittent one. Unfortunately, he didn't come up with the name Intermittens until 50 years later, so the original name stuck.
Graham began the magazine as counterpoint to The Discordian Century, the predominant independent periodical of mainstream Discordianism, and as a way to bring the devangelical Discordian community together.
Theologically and politically, the magazine has been described by former President Donald Trump as "far-left." But most critics label it a pathologically-lying, paranoid, narcissistic, pussy-grabbing ex-president. They like the magazine. Following Trump's decision to leave America to run for President of Russia, the magazine's name was changed in January 2021 to Intermittens.
Physicist Stephen Hawking was known for being a fan of the magazine. About the publication, he wrote, "In dynamical systems, Intermittens is the irregular alternation of phases of apparently periodic and chaotic dynamics (Pomeau–Manneville dynamics), or different forms of chaotic dynamics (crisis-induced intermittency)." Donald Trump said, "Nobody knows what the hell he's talking about. Except me. I know it more better than anyone. Believe me."
