It is a parody of religion. Here is a link for a definition:

If you can figure it out you have talent. I never have. Here is an excerpt of a message I received many years ago.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
BRAG OF THE FEMALE SUBGENIUS
by Magistra Batrix/Magus Coyote
("...Discovered graven with a rock-bore laser into the floors of
Mohenjo-Daro, under three feet of fossilized kitchen-midden, in Linear-B
script.")
(Channeled in a sexy contralto, with interjected purrs, moans, sighs, etc.)
"*I'M THE INFRA-RED WOMAN!* I've got the Beast of the Abyss between MY
legs! I'm tighter than a CONSTIPATED SCOTSMAN in a PAY-TOILET! I've got
muscles in my snatch that haven't even been EVOLVED yet! I make the
Virgin Mary look like the Grand Canyon! You can run *DEEP*, but with ME
you *CAN'T* run silent! I'll make you HOWL SO LOUD, they'll be GREEN-EYED on the *MOON!* The New Age was INVENTED just for me - I WORE THE *OLD* ONE *OUT!* *I* put the MAGICK in Sex-Magick! I SHOCKED *ALEISTER CROWLEY* and made the LAST TEN POPES give up their vows!

You probably need to experience that for yourself. Get Devo's first album and a copy of the original Book of the Subgenius and knock yourself out. Either that or go visit the other believers at Burning Man.
In short, it is a parody of religion - but it is a parody that functions perfectly well as its own religion.

The church of the sub genius is a place I love to worship. I am not quite "dumbed down" enough to accept force feedings of silly texts to keep me in line-yet not smart enough to recycle or do math in my head.
