I believe in God.
You obviously don’t.
If your view is correct, when I die, I’ll never know it.
If my view is correct, when you die, YOU SURE WILL.

An elaborate spoof on Intelligent Design, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is neither too elaborate nor too spoofy to succeed in nailing the fallacies of ID. It's even wackier than Jonathan Swift's suggestion that the Irish eat their children as a way to keep them from being a burden, and it may offend just as many people, but Henderson, described elsewhere as a 25-year-old "out-of-work physics major," puts satire to the same serious use that Swift did. Oh, yes, it is very funny. -- Scientific American
Then it seems you will never know.
So faith is basically insurance? kind of like saying i can’t be arsed using my brain, but that sound like i’m covered if i go with it?
I love how people don’t even know what they are talking about when they post a rebuttle.
or why they think they are going to do any good by providing us with plenty of humorous material to read. i mean think about this scenario:
some guy-
“you are evil go to hell you evil guy im liek in love with jesus and i pray and give money to my pastor”
me- “oh. ok. ill convert.”
No mate. We have faith in the Flying Spaghetti Monster because it is consistent with science and our instincts are so strong it exists that any other theory is all but inconceivable. What makebelieve entity do you believe in?
Whoops. Thought I was arguing with Spider there. I would still like to hear henderob’s answer to my question though.
We have evidence mate, as I can’t find the link I will just explain it, I am sure someone else will fill in any gaps.

Over the past hundred years peoples average height has gone up, this is linked with population explosions. This is due to his noodleness who keeps everyone and every thing on earth my gentlely pushing down on them. We the more things and especially people he presses down on the more less pressure he can apply to each thing/person and thus we all appear to be gettign taller.
.
Either that or we are changing for some genetic reason or other and as evolution is just a theory that can’t be possible, can it?

You forgot, it’s because of all us 1337 cyper-pirates and the fact that everyone eats more spaghetti nowadays.

“If your view is correct, when I die, I’ll never know it.
If my view is correct, when you die, YOU SURE WILL.”
okay, maybe the christian god is real.
what if allah is the real one?
what about shiva, vishnu, ganesh and kali?
what about zeus or hera?
odin?
osiris?
.
if any of these gods are real, you’ll sure as hell know about it when you die. in fact, i’d love to see you watch and shit yourself as anubis weighs your heart against a feather, before feeings your unworthy soul to Amam the Devourer.
.
at least us rationalists can claim we were always open to the possibility. we didn’t bow down before the ‘wrong’ god, because we didn’t bow before any god. you, on the other hand, would be screwed.
Hrm, I was reading through the hatemail i’m unsure if the gospel was out yet but however, if you don’t convert to our religion now you actually will know. You will end up in pastafarian hell with ugly strippers and flat beer. Have fun with that, we however will have good looking strippers who DON’T have STDs and good beer.
Hope you convert, or don’t hook up with a burner in hell,

Hello nowtheworldhasmeaning,
First off I’d Like to let you know that we WILL know if we are right because we will get our strippers and beer, and you WILL know if you’re right because you’ll see jesus, allah or zeus or whoever your arguing for there (unclear) and they’ll give you what ever you think your going to get. So it’s kind of a 50/50 chance if you only considered our two religions. Which one you choose is irrelevant as you will have the same probability of being right or wrong (as I said, only considering our 2 religions..That’s omitting the infinitely unlimited possibilities of other religions or set of beliefs a person could choose to hold),
SO I think you are confused and think you have walked into a server full of Atheists instead of pastafarians…If that is the case then the argument you are using is a form of pascal’s gamble.
If you’d like to read up on the Monumental, and seemingly endless flaws in that argument why not start with a good unbiased source like wiki. Then maybe next time you decide to bring an argument against those heathenous mongrel atheists, you won’t seem like ‘just another uneducated bible-thumping southern christian.’…
