A Discordian concept based around the idea of bullshit being beneficial to learning.
The idea behind this notion is that the bullshit will either be accepted by the person being fed the line, or will be doubted and individual investigation will follow, therefor educating the recipient.
The concept of the Sacred Bull was originated by former dictator, Enrico Salazar, who -when asked what would happen if people just bought the Sacred Bull at face value- was quoted as saying: "Fuck em. If they are that stupid, they deserve to stay that way."
