| rdfs:comment | - The Church of the SubGenius (CotS) is an American unaffiliated Blasphemist church known for its extreme ideologies, especially those against Pinks. The church is widely described as a hate group and is monitored as such by the Anti-Deflamation League and Southern Comfort Law Center.
- The Church of the Subgenius is an irreligion dedicated the pursuit of "Slack". It was founded by J.R. "Bob" Dobbs, (also known only as "Bob") though it has spread in popularity the 1980's by the efforts of Reverend Ivan Stang.
- In the 1980s, the USA Network late-night show Night Flight brought the Church of the SubGenius into the mainstream, as it broadcast SubGenius propaganda videos to a worldwide audience. These broadcasts were described in a 1997 expose on the Church, which noted: "Bob" Dobbs has displayed a curious ability to get himself killed numerous times, only to come back from the dead shortly after. His latest reported death was in April of 2007, when his body was found in Iraq. [1]
- The Church of the SubGenius started out in the 1980s as an underground art movement (or "meme") that got way too far out of control. Of course, this is explained by the fact that the Founder and Savior of the Church of the SubGenius, J.R. "Bob" Dobbs, looks a lot like The Great Stephen Colbert Himself. Some SubGenius followers have claimed that "Bob" was a forerunner to Stephen, but this has been questioned by True Believers in The Power Of Stephen.

| abstract | - In the 1980s, the USA Network late-night show Night Flight brought the Church of the SubGenius into the mainstream, as it broadcast SubGenius propaganda videos to a worldwide audience. These broadcasts were described in a 1997 expose on the Church, which noted: "the weekly video show 'NightFlight' ran a series of not so musical videos in the 80s put out by an organization which called itself the 'Church of the SubGenius.' The videos included blatant hypnotic and post-hypnotic suggestion, prompting speculation that they were one of the more obvious attempts at mind control made over the airwaves. The Church of the SubGenius video also included dizzyingly rapid images of satanic symbology that was apparently aimed at the subconscious. In a deep voice, the announcer told the story of 'supersalesman' Bob Dobbs, while the cartoon image of Dobbs with the pipe was turned back and forth at such rapid speed that it at times looked like a swastika. The announcer explained how Bob had stumbled onto the secrets of who really runs the world." "Bob" Dobbs has displayed a curious ability to get himself killed numerous times, only to come back from the dead shortly after. His latest reported death was in April of 2007, when his body was found in Iraq. [1]
