1 definition found From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]: religion of CHI /ki:/, n. [Case Western Reserve University] Yet another hackish parody religion (see also Church of the SubGenius, Discordianism). In the mid-70s, the canonical ?Introduction to Programming? courses at CWRU were taught in Algol, and student exercises were punched on cards and run on a Univac 1108 system using a homebrew operating system named CHI. The religion had no doctrines and but one ritual: whenever the worshiper noted that a digital clock read 11:08, he or she would recite the phrase ?It is 11:08; ABS, ALPHABETIC, ARCSIN, ARCCOS, ARCTAN.? The last five words were the first five functions in the appropriate chapter of the Algol manual; note the special pronunciations /obz/ and /ark'sin/ rather than the more common / ahbz/ and /ark'si:n/. Using an alarm clock to warn of 11:08's arrival was { considered harmful}.
