The Church is funded entirely by your purchases of FSM merchandise. Thank you for your support.
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

i just farted (safty)
Forgive me for leaving two of the same comments my the FSM have mercy on me
I can see that people need religion & stuff, but I think it has gotten way out of hand when the bible is the most circulated book and other related trinkets sell in the billions.
‘but that just shows that you can make money off of anything.
Just think of alternative medicine; people have always made a lot of money off of it and it is almost as dumb.
Well. to start WHAT THE FUCK WAS UP WITH YOUR ‘CREATIVE’ SPELLING! Evidently you have not been touched by His Noodliness’s Noodly Appendage, unlike those of us wise enough to see the truth and bow down before his Noodliness. No Beer Volcanoes and Stripper Factory for you.
RAmen.
OH MY FSM!!!! A Butt Pirate!
about as dumn as the beleafes that speling is gotten out of hand…
someone eles must have been crazy as u to say that peeple use got speling.
yeah ur gay….
Here’s “food” for thought…..
Malachi 4:1
For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud….. hmmm… an oven?
My mom makes this great BAKED spaghetti.. PRAISE THE LORD… Vengeance is mine!!!!
Ever heard of spell check?
LMAO! Well, this is my first post (and first time on this website) and I thought replying to this ijit.
Nathanial, stay in school (public) or get out of school (christian). If your spelling is naturaly that bad, then you will have a hard time in life.
Brothers we must be tolerant with this heathen, his stommach has not yet been touched by His Noodly Appendage and he is not able to see the shining lights of the holy meat ball glowing in the sky. Ramen
Well, this is kind of sad.
There’s a famous joke: the Devil is walking along a road with one of his minions, when they see a man up ahead. As they watch, the man bends down and picks something up. “What did that man pick up?” asks the minion. “Oh, just a little religion,” says the Devil. “Well isn’t that a problem? Shouldn’t you do something?” asks the minion. “No,” says the Devil, “I’ll just let him organize it.”
When I first heard about this religion, I was so excited that I straight-away bought a car sticker for myself and one for a friend. I’ve been telling everyone about it. But now I read this post (the first one I’ve read on this site). And yes, there are some funny bits, and yes, the poor guy desperately needs a spell check.
But really, many of you are acting just as elitist and self-righteous towards this poor person as any born-again I’ve ever met. You’re right, he’s wrong, and you’re just going to rub it in until he bleeds. Is it worth it? Do you feel better about yourselves now?
Here are the first 3 I’d Really Rather You Didn’ts (taken from Wikipedia). How many of them can you find in this thread? How many of them have you committed yourself?
1. I’d Really Rather You Didn’t Act Like a Sanctimonious Holier-Than-Thou Ass When Describing My Noodly Goodness. If Some People Don’t Believe In Me, That’s Okay. Really, I’m Not That Vain. Besides, This Isn’t About Them So Don’t Change The Subject.
2. I’d Really Rather You Didn’t Use My Existence As A Means To Oppress, Subjugate, Punish, Eviscerate, And/Or, You Know, Be Mean To Others. I Don’t Require Sacrifices, And Purity Is For Drinking Water, Not People.
3. I’d Really Rather You Didn’t Judge People For The Way They Look, Or How They Dress, Or The Way They Talk [or SPELL], Or, Well, Just Play Nice, Okay? Oh, And Get This In Your Thick Heads: Woman = Person. Man = Person. Samey - Samey. One Is Not Better Than The Other, Unless We’re Talking About Fashion And I’m Sorry, But I Gave That To Women And Some Guys Who Know The Difference Between Teal and Fuchsia.
I like the whole RAmen bit, though. That’s fuckin’ funny.
- The Pointless One
If you wanna read a harsh post, read the “I just saw your fucking website” thread!
About the spelling. This has been a constant theme with the postings, of obviously funsamentalist christians, to this site. I believe the reason is that religous indoctrination of these kids/people takes up a lot of their time. Obviously everything else, for example basic education in the three Rs, is probably considered secondary to this religous instruction by their mentors. I don’t think most of us are trying to be elitest. Far from it.
But a lot of the fundi posts are just regurgatation of religous right brainwashing. Maybe some of us react pretty strongly to that. Most appear to try to do with humor though.
RAmen
ps Besides they came here and started picking on us first.
See even we make spelling mistakes.
That does seem to be the present dilemma. Try and be above the name calling and offer a non-patronizing argument or take it down to the nuff nuffs level.
.
From Salon; “surprisingly, some intelligent design advocates have actually welcomed Dawkins’ attacks. William Dembski, for instance, says his inflammatory rhetoric helps the I.D. cause by making evolution sound un-Christian.”
.
They will spin anything they can to “demonize” evolution.
If you mean “fundi” I use it as abreviation. Typing fundamentalist or ism all the time is a pain in the fingers. I suppose I could asterisk all the time. lol
Do you honestly think that this is going to make everyone suddenly go, “Oh no! I’ve taken this way too far. Let’s start a petition to get that wasteful book off the shelves!We can replace it with copies of… oh I don’t know… The Bible?”
No. It’s not. It’s just going to make people collapse with laughter at your wholesale abuse of the English language.
I would LOVE to see the Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster removed from bookstores and replaced with the Bible… Barnes and Noble sell the Gospel in the Humor section. Seems like a good place for the Bible.

RAmen.
It is my job to patronize people who misuse the English language… although, I am grateful to them as well. If it weren’t for them, there would be no copy-editing jobs for me. Ironic how I’m indebted to the people I loathe the most for providing me with a high-paying career that fulfills my paper-correcting addiction….
HOWEVER… when someone writes a nasty letter they deserve to be ridiculed for their illiteracy. Consider it karmic.
To be fair Starbuckaneer, Nathaniel’s letter was hardly nasty. And he’s such an easy target. And you seem to reserve your condescension for illiterate letters which are anti-FSM, ignoring the vitriolic illiteracy of many of our fellow Pastafarians. Besides, he probably hasn’t even read the responses.

I can see it was a good giggle a few thousand years ago but don’t you think all this Christianity has go a little out of hand, I mean there is a lot of people selling books and other Jesus tack, making lots of money.
It is also responsible for for several very unstable leaders in powerful positions (I never said Bush if you reach that conclusion yourselves that arn’t my problem).
