Proto creed that would eventually become the Cult of the Emperor. Saw it's fastest spread during the Horus Heresy. Under this creed the Emperor of Mankind was seen as a God-Emperor. The Lectitio Divinitatus is a direct threat to the Imperial Truth. (Mythology of Warhammer 40,000, originally just a miniatures war game, now encompassing miniatures, cvg's and multiple series' of novels by many authors)
"The faith of the Lectitio Divinitatus, the Divine Word of the Emperor, is not an easy path to follow. Where the Imperial Truth is comforting in its rigorous rejection of the unseen and unknown, the Divine Word the strength to believe in that which we cannot see. The longer we look upon this dark galaxy and live through the fires of its conquest, the more we realise that the Emperor's Divinity is the only truth that CAN exist.

Get the Lectitio Divinitatus mug.The state of being so far left-wing in ideology, it gives the impression person afflicted must be mentally handicapped - read: Retarded, to have such opinions.
She's so caught up in her ignorant, delusional ideology that facts and logic mean absolutely nothing to her. That moron is so pathetically leftarded.

Get the Leftarded mug.Leetal's are beautiful and very nice. They are always kind and put others before themselves. They are very athletic and good at sports and love kicking things. They can sometimes get overly addicted or passionate about something and take it to the next level. They are very impatient and hate waiting for anything! They usually have something for security such as a stuffed animal or blanket. They hate knowing they have a surprise coming but love getting surprises. If you have a Leetal in your life don't get rid of her. She has probably been through more than you know. They are very smart and talented and good at everything they do!

Get the Leetal mug.A university lecture characterised by a replacement of the more formal yet boring teaching methods advocated by teacher training colleges and academic managers by insane sounding rants in which the lecturer replaces dry subject matter with their own uncomfortable, personal truth. Based on Hunter S. Thompson's particular brand of gonzo journalism, the Gonzo Lecture is characterised by first person point of view run wild and an oft-indistinguishable fusion of real-world facts and fictional confabulation. The gonzo lecturer may often combine their personal narrative style with contrived personal and often avant-garde anecdotes, expressions of angry disillusionment, foul language and other methods such as textbook throwing. Meta levels of thought are often subtly conveyed through homage to popular cultural symbols and controversial opinions with which the audience identifies. The objective of The Gonzo Lecture is to wake-up the audience to their own oppression by corrupt power systems through engaging them in personal reflection, prompted by their own discomfort. This reflection is designed to stimulate an aspiration on their part to rethink their self-concept as a channel towards personal change. The Gonzo Lecture, as part of the wider field of Gonzo Education is sometimes considered unprofessional by those not yet intellectually freed from the shackles of oppressive power.
Example 1:
Lecturer: This textbook on your required reading list is a piece of total fucking dog-shit! (throws the book into the lecture theatre to be fought over by the audience)
Student 1: This lecture is totally fucked up, man.
Student 2: Yeah...it's fuckin gonzo, dude.
Student 1: But that book IS totally shit, man.
Example 2:
Lecturer: So big corporations encourage you to volunteer in order that you can work for them for free in order that you can get good work experience for your CV so when you graduate you can get a good job with them, cos they already know you're a fucking gullible patsy who will serve them well for the future. Does that sound fucked up to you?
Student: (thinks...) Fuck, I volunteer for free all the time and never thought I was being taken advantage of. I love this Gonzo Lecture, it speaks truth.

Get the Leftardation mug.A plot device in a story which entails the villain giving a convincing lecture to its interrogator, usually in an attempt to justify itself; often successfully convincing the hero of his or her own moral shortcomings.
"You'd like to quantify me, Officer Starling. You're so ambitious, aren't you? Do you know what you look like to me, with your good bag and your cheap shoes? You look like a rube. You're a well-scrubbed, hustling rube with a little taste. Your eyes are like cheap birthstones - all surface shine when you stalk some little answer. And you're bright behind them, aren't you? Desperate not to be like your mother. Good nutrition has given you some length of bone, but you're not more than one generation out of the mines Officer Starling. Is it the West Virginia Starlings or the Okie Starlings, Officer? It was a toss-up between college and the opportunities in the Women's Army Corps, wasn't it? Let me tell you something specific about yourself, Student Starling. Back in your room, you have a string of gold add-a-beads and you feel an ugly little thump when you look at how tacky they are now, isn't that so? All those tedious thank-yous, permitting all that sincere fumbling, getting all sticky once for every bead. Tedious. Tedious. Bo-o-o-o-r-i-ing. Being smart spoils a lot of things, doesn't it? And taste isn't kind. When you think about this conversation, you'll remember the dumb animal hurt in his face when you got rid of him. If the add-a-beads got tacky, what else will as you go along? You wonder don't you, at night?"
