The man who founded a religion based on 'The Big Lebowski' Posted: 20 Aug 2011 05:36 PM PDT People who intuitively perceive 2,500-year-old Chinese and Greek concepts, while knowingly nod to California's detached hippie philosophy and quote droll lines from "The Big Lebowski" are joining a revelatory religion that has illuminated its U.S. founder in northern Thailand. Dubbed "Church of the Latter-Day Dude," the group also invites "mellow, unflashy chicks who hang around in their bathrobes and take baths with candles and whale sounds," says the religion's Dudely Lama, Oliver Benjamin. "Everyone feels oppressed by society's pressures," he says. "Everyone wishes they had more freedom. Everyone wishes they could be more carefree, to worry less about money and status." |
