You have GOT to be kidding me

You have GOT to be kidding me…seriously. The reason I ask, is because I truly wonder how you can conclude that a “Flying Spaghetti Monster” created and ordained life from before there was ANYTHING. I really would be interested to see your premises and conclusion in a semi-logical format. The other thing, is that I hope and pray that you realize your dreadful inaccuracy and pray that God would forgive you of your blasphemies. They are truly dishonoring at the least. Praying that you change,

    How can you conclude that any big invisible monster created the universe? It’s something you can neither prove nor disprove. Therefore you cannot disprove that said big invisible monster takes the form of spaghetti & meatballs, so I’ll have my big invisible monster with parmesan thanks.

    Until you’re willing to reach out for His Noodly Appendage, the only things that await you in the afterlife are dishwashing, sanitary duties, and flat, lukewarm beer – and I challenge you to disprove me.

    RAmen!

    If only these blasphemers had spent the time to open up and learn the truth from his book. Everyone would be able to see the way and people would quit following the wrong path and be blessed by his greatness. Please read the Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster to learn all about everything. After reading this, you will know.

  14. 14 - Man from the Unverse - Sep 19th, 2006

    hmmm, i too sometime wonder how he could create and ordained life before the universe came to existance, then i think to myself hey maybe he comes from the unverse, or the oldverse, or the multiverse, with quantum mechanics it’s proven that it’s possible that a multiverse is possible( so a maybe). take for exemple a dice, you can get from 1 to 6, by throwing it you get a equal chance to get 1,2,3,4,5 and 6, and in a multiverse you can get all 6 just in different universe. So he could be from another universe where he is a commoner or anything possible and decide to come here a create this universe. Or this could be a dream and the flying spaghetti monster is just sleeping and he’ll wake up sometime and we will simply cease to exist. that’s how he create mountains, trees and midgets

    The amazing thing about America is that it is filled with a diverse culture of race, ethnic, and religious beliefs. However, you don’t see a “redressed” version of Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Sikhim, Baha’I, or any other religion being presented as scientific evidence of its existence and true superiority. Redressed Christianity has no place in the science class. There is absolutely nothing scientifically measurable about an “imaginary guy in the sky” nor a monster creating midgets (although it is a great laugh and wonderfully satirical concept)!

    I do however believe that a logical resolution needs to be achieved, but not by subjecting our children to religion unfairly represented as science. In turn there is a need for all students in every country to be subjected to a mandatory, non-bias, and wholly objective world religion class. Which the top 10, 15, 20 (whatever number decided upon) religions are explored and researched in an open discussion class. The teacher should be absolutely non-bias and be present to help fuel the discussions, and steer them when needed. The testing should be on the religious concepts, important moral and socially benefiting material, as well as grossly negative aspects. The objective of the class would be to mold young adults into open minded adults with the ability to accept others and their points of view rather than condemn, ridicule, and hate. Until there is acceptance and hate can be deterred we will have wars, and senseless slaughtering of human life. Humans are not born to hate we are molded by society. Unless something is done, by society as a whole, to embed acceptance in others hate and destruction is inevitable. For instance, Pope Benedict’s comments about Islam…..if that is not “the pot calling the kettle black” I don’t know what is. I ask, has the pope ever heard of the crusades or witch hunts?

    My favorite part of that letter is the writer’s request to “see your premises and conclusion in a semi-logical format.” I would love to see ANY religion’s attempt to provide premises and conclusion in a semi-logical format. I’m not sure… is he taking Pastafarianism seriously the same way that he takes his own religion seriously, because he seems to have missed the joke. I will be sure to pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster for him, or perhaps to the waffle stuck to my kitchen ceiling, or the dancing hula girl on my car dashboard.

    alright, lemmie tell you something. Pastafarianism is very similar to christianity. One god created the universe. They made a big forrest. They created man. So i dont see how a religion made up by an out of work physics man is any different from a religion made up by a woman who was mysteriously pregnant and had to make up a reason as to why her husband is not the father.

    I am currently contemplating on things which are very toubling to me,
    I wonder how you view your life in light of the fact that only too soon your life will cease as well as mine, and at that appointed time both our lives will have amounted to absolute nothingness. Contemplating the complete worthlessness of both our lives i struggle to find reason to take in that next breath, for you and me are but a squelch of static about to be tuned out. Our lives both lead up to the our deaths and no more will our influence be felt or or achievments mater. And as the sun about which our planet orbits goes nova all of life on earth will have been reduced to mere nothingness. Complete waste of time is what are lives our. Absolute horror is what it is. Unless of course you have encountered the simple undeniable message of Salvation in Christ Jesus. then every breath matters. And a great deal of people including yourself may shoot me down and mock, scoff, persecute me. Incessantly prodding me to prove my faith’s validity and existence. But my God speaks for himself, but he has said that those with ears may hear and those with eyes may see but their hearts will be cold and hard as stone and your understanding may never grasp the gravity of our situation on this forsaken ball. I break into tears as i consider our fates a waste of life and breath we are for what starts, ends, Unless you know the One who started it…

    Dear Jill,
    fear not that observable redshifts, star formation, galaxy distributions, and cosmic microwave background radiation measurements are all found to be consistant with Big Bang theory. Everyone knows that given any group of bored, over-educated scientists with too much government funding, no interest in broadcast sports, and with no member of the opposite sex to distract them can invent amazing feats of alchemy that would convince the brightest theologians of our time.
    You might not want to connect Darwin to the Big Bang in public again; while he may have eaten dog crap a few times while on the Beagle, he had nothing to do with speculation that creation started with anything but sexual attraction of the fittest.
    I pray to his Noodly Appendage that FSM will forgive your mocking critism of his followers.

Oh well, after all the Big Bang is “just a theory” you know like our explantions for Gravity and Magnetism, but then again how do we know Gravity isnt just the Flying Spaghetti Monster’s Stringy Tentacles pulling down everything? You know to keep his creation looking spic and span, he doesnt want any of his precious pirates floating out into space. Yeah that’s it isnt it, I have just now thought up the true explanation for Gravity, It’s the Theory of Intelligeint Falling.

    C’mon, it may not be able to be presented in any kind of logical format, but can the christian theory be presented in a semi-logical format? don’t quote from the bible and what proof do you have left? only faith. so I have faith that FSM created this universe, enuff proof for ya?

    the FSM can do anything your silly God can do, so I don’t know how you can be able to criticize it with your blasphemy while still believing that your God is real or better. There is just as much proof (or lack of proof) of the FSM as there is of “God”.

    “let me ask you something, when has an explosion created anything, never it destroys things.”

    Seriously Jill you should just think before you open your bilge hole. This statement instead of being a valid argument just shows your ignorance of things like physics and nucleosynthesis. By exposing your ignorence on topics like atoms work and how this relates to the big bang you have undermined any future argument you may make. Dont believe in the big bang theory? Thats fine and perfectly ok. However, if you are going to debate something at least have a argument that has some logic and facts backing it up. Come with an informed statement instead of the factualy incorect argument you present. Your understanding of how the physical universe works is so lacking that I could never beleive anything you have to say about the metaphysical universe.

    Belief does not equate with proof. If I truly believe in my heart that there is a diamond the size of a truck in my backyard, I would be happiest person around, merrily digging an ever bigger hole to find that diamond (forgive me Mr. Harris for paraphrasing you). However, the fact that I believe it is there, does not mean that it is.

    Believing there is a Creator (whatever food group He/She/It might be) does not make it true. At this point in time, scientific evidence supports evolution. There is no scientific support for ID (no, Holy books of any religion do not count as scientific proof). When someone can provide solid, scientific evidence for ID, then I will 100% support teaching it in the classroom.

    ID is thinly veiled religion, not science. When we begin accepting theories without scientific proof, we must open the window to any theory… and that includes Flying Spaghetti Monsters.

    RAmen.

    Like ALL religions this has NO LOGIC.It doesnt need any If we follow the rules of the other religions it doesnt need to be proved because the answer to every question is THIS:OUR GOD ____________ (fill in the blank, jesus, budda, alhah, aphodite, easterbunny, FSM or whatever) created everything that exist.Thats our proof!!Sound a bit like the 3 abrahamic religions to you???

    Time and time and time again those of us that use logic and reason to uderstand and attempt to better handle our existence run into the proverbial brick wall known as religion. It seems that there are those of us that don’t need any kind of reason and would prefer to take events that occured over 2000 years ago and were at best poorly recorded by those with a SPECIFIC agenda as the absoluete proof. Hell if i’m stuck dealing with these……(lacking the proper word to describe such people as the above listed) i might as well enjoy it. That is why i have converted the believeing in his noodly greatness. His noodly greatness has never started a crusade, been the purpose for a suicide attack, and is generally a nice kinda ….diety. So in conclusion why bother arguing with those that believe anything else from what i think (and the world was created 88 years ago and everything older then that is just made up to discredit my branch of belief, its in MY bible so it must be true….. so there you lose)

    “What is of this God,” asked Gregor Mendal, to no one in particular, “If I can modify these pea plants as my own?” The FSM was right behind him, modifying Gregor’s data as to see it be correct. As he was tending to his plants, one day, Gregor noticed a mysterious Oversized Meatball at the base of his plant. He analyzed this, and noticed that it had Plenty of Nutrients and Minerals his plants found good. He could not account for the Meatball, even asking his chef, and was forced to ignore it as to meet Science’s demands. He stood before His God, “My God, what is of these Balls of Delicious Meat, standing at the base of my plants?” To which, the Pastafari replied, (in his best God Voice), “My son, that is but my own poop. We dieties poop too, but only after consuming loads of experiment-skewing data.” Gregor was confused, and His God was unvealed unto Gregor’s Self. “Just as I had put mine own meatballs in your garden,” said FSM, “I too, have put your God on this earth. He is but an illusion, like in Las Vegas magic acts.” Gregor was still confused, and went to his grave, a scientist.

    Mike, Thor (Tor) is not the true god for a viking, it would be quite a list for you to mention them all, but Odin (Oden) should be mentioned first.
    Vikings seldom pray, isnt killing someone better? Or shag someone? Thar’s more like it. More viking style.
    Wierd, Christians worship a guy who has multiple personalities (father, son and holy spirit) and kill people by looking at them as the same time as he can wrestle with some people and don’t kill them, and has random tantrums and doesnt like humans learning things… And they think FSM is silly? I mean, he may be made from pasta and meatballs, but he isnt neurotic.
    FSM (or Norse, for that matter) sounds like excellent choices.

    But there IS recent proof that His Noodlieness is active in our world! Joone was touched by His Noodley Appendage and inspired to write and produce the adult Pirate movie, which, in turn, will inspire many others (through the creative use of comedy and gratuitous sex) to become Pirates! Thus ending global warming! (Plus it’s fun to watch.) I ask you, Henderbob, what has your God done for you lately? Also, a warning to the non-believers! Dr. Atkins was struck down for spreading his blasphemous anti-Pasta propaganda. It’s like my mama always said, “If you don’t have something nice to say… I will defeat you with my astounding wit!” (Maybe my mom didn’t say that, exactly, but she did say something, of that I am certain.) As devout Pastafarians, my fellow worshippers and I get together periodically and watch this Pirate movie to hear His word, and then wrestle in giant tubs of spagetti, to make ourselves in His likeness. You should try it. Trust me, it’s much better than being dunked backwards into a kiddie pool and getting “saved” with no trained lifeguard on duty.

    You have GOT to be kidding ME. Seriously now, I have to ask is because I truly wonder how YOU can conclude that ‘God’ created and ordained life from before there was anything.

    You replace the ‘Flying Spaghetti Monster’ with whatever deity you worship, and you will have things pretty much parallel. How is this an inaccuracy? After all, God is NOT a name. It is a title. Flying Spaghetti Monster is the name of the deity that the Pastafarianists. Do you even know the name of your God? I know it. I will not tell you the name of your God because YOU should know it on your own like a good little peon. But I will give you a hint, his name is not God.

    How are there any blasphemies being committed? Do you even know what a blasphemy is? I doubt that you do.

Someone finds this site while researching thier God on t’interweb, (which has more than subtle spagettiesque undertones) and then is forced to rush off to thier favorite forums and explain how shocking this site is, mocking people beliefs. This causes an uprising in the ranks who feel they must go explain the error of our ways in trusting in a false god.

    i think that you people are simply failing to understand how the christian mind works. If all people were calculators then a christian would be one of those little blue ones you use in elementry school which can only add subtrack multiply right half of the time and is missing the division button. A Pastafarian is a slightly outdated scientific calculator which can preform most important functions to 10 digits. A person who advocates evolution is like a nice graphing calculator which can preform functions that half of the people using it don’t even fully understand. The little blue calculator is to simple to understand matricies or tangents.

    Jesus. Jesus Christ. You lot really don’t get it, do you?
    IT. IS. NOT. WHAT. ANYONE. REALLY. FUCKING. THINKS. WE. ARE JUST TAKING. THE. PISS. OUT. OF. RELIGON. IN. GENERAL.
    I mean, if the Bible was nominated for an award, I think that the people who made it all up(Who are now laughing like drains at all of you Christians. In *Heaven*cough) would be pretty pissed if it was for Humor. I’ve read the Bible. It just takes the factor of trying to make you laugh at ludicrous suggestions too far.

    It is so easy to mock and make fun of what others consider sacred. After reading the many responses on this site I am again convinced that Christianity has it right. “None are righteous, no not one”. Jesus was a real historical person. There is plenty of historical evidence to research about him. You think Plato and Aristotle were brilliant try reading the book of Romans in the Bible. Or try reading Aquinas or Augustine. Go to Monergism.com and pick out any number of great men who believed and have lived their lives serving the One God. Try doing a little research before you so loudly mock others who have spent their lives believing in the unseen God. Blabbering about what you do not understand is not a sign of anything but foolishness.

    “Jesus was a real historical person. There is plenty of historical evidence to research about him. You think Plato and Aristotle were brilliant try reading the book of Romans in the Bible. Or try reading Aquinas or Augustine”
    .
    all of the above is true, there was a MAN called Jesus, who undoubtedly had some noodly ideas about not killing each other and so on. There’s proof to this effect. I’ve never argued against this, indeed i’ve yet to see anyone argue against this. what profoundly disturbs me is how we make the leap from there to being the son of god, or indeed t here neing a god. just because someone has a bright idea (and i include aquinas who has some great non theological works to his name) does not make the fact that theres a deity true, even if they say so.
    .
    Proof of one thing is not proof of another. Egyptian kings and queens definitely existed, there’s plenty of proof they existed – but were they living gods as they claim? proof of the first case is not proof of the devine.

    Jim,
    Telling us to do a little research before mouthing off is a little stupid, some of us have given examples of great knowledge and understanding of the bible, I have also manage to read through the Koran (I must admit to not having a great understanding). My relgious studies exam (GCSE) went swimmingly, as it was baised on Christianity and I’d had 16 year of Cathlic upbringing my understanding of the bible is strong.
    .
    Not only this but of late I have been hugely interested in philosophy. And it is not just me I know plenty of people on this site have great back grounds and intellectual points to be shared and discussed. And while not all posts, are intellectual the site policy of non-censorship stands, I must admit that a few of my posts have used abusive and unintellectual comments but I reserve the right to reply as I see fit when I see fit. Plus fighting fire with fire while not correct is fun.
    .
    This site is a great and entertaining way of getting across a point of view. The same way church sponsors used cartoonists to mock Darwin. Jim you should look at yourself and your own understanding of the point that is beuing made here to realise that it is not mocking for mockings sake but a protest.

    Jim,
    .
    You are right that history is filled with men that served god and accomplished great things. They really didn’t have a choice did they? It isn’t too far back in history that to denounce God was a one-way ticket to the chopping block or worse. No doubt some of those great thinkers were sincere in their beliefs, but a little fact checking will show the number of sincere theists declines as the choke hold of the church loosens. Today, you will be hard pressed to find many true theists among the intellectual greats.
    .
    Incidently, there is good evidence from their own writings that many of the US Founding Fathers were not theists … deists perhaps, but not theists. Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Thomas Paine and John Adams are among the obvious, but I doubt they were alone in their views.
    .
    As far as Aquinas goes, his ‘proofs’ are rarely cited today because the are easily proven flawed. The only one that is still used is the Teleological Argument, and I will gladly debate that with you since ID is what sparked this site.
    .
    RAMen.

    “Jesus was a real historical person. There is plenty of historical evidence to research about him.”

    As spider already mentioned, Jesus did exist and no one can deny that, not even us pastafarians. He is a historical person who had great ideas and tried to make the world a better place, but what is highly debatable and unable to be proven is whether he was the son of God. This, I find too hard to believe.

    My seriousness is over, for I feel I have proven my point.

    As for the FSM, He is clearly real and shall not be debated! I have been touched by His Noodly Appendage, and have seen the light of the pasta… FSM is just as provable as God, and I would like you to slurp your bolognaise on that one!

    Prove this point, my fellow pastafarians!

    In retaliation, where is your proof that your “God” created life? An ancient book that has been translated from it’s original text? Well, we have a book too, so you can’t use that. I can’t see how your beliefs are any more logical than mine. Hey, at least my beliefs taste good.

    Look what i found while looknig through the topic.
    You’re kidding… right? So you belive spagetti and meatballs created the universe. You believe food created the deep blue seas, skys, and human beings? Whats next, Dog crap creating the Earth? All this is is an act of boredom, just like Darwin. He believed an explosion created the Earth, let me ask you something, when has an explosion created anything, never it destroys things. Who ever came up with this idea, I pray God will show mercy on you when you stand before his throne. End of quote.
    Ok Darwin never came up with the big bang theory, infact he believed the universe was made by god, and i dont think it was boredom that made him discovery evolution. Any way evolution has nothing to do with the big bang at all.

    It is so easy to mock and make fun of what others consider sacred. After reading the many responses on this site I am again convinced that Christianity has it right. “None are righteous, no not one”. Jesus was a real historical person. There is plenty of historical evidence to research about him.
    `
    I have always said that the “Elect Jesus Christ for God” campaign was a stroke of marketing genius. It really changed the face of information distribution and religious conversion technique as well. I consider this irrefutable proof that there was indeed a Jesus Christ. With you so far.

    and You think Plato and Aristotle were brilliant try reading the book of Romans in the Bible.
    `
    Okay, I’ll bite. Any passages in particular?
    `
    Or try reading Aquinas or Augustine. Go to Monergism.com and pick out any number of great men who believed and have lived their lives serving the One God. Try doing a little research before you so loudly mock others who have spent their lives believing in the unseen God.
    `
    Okay, I bit… from the website:
    Monergism: The view that the Holy Spirit is the only agent who effects regeneration of Christians. It is in contrast with synergism, the view that there is a cooperation between the divine and the human in the regeneration process.
    Wait… what?
    Monergism is a redemptive blessing purchased by Christ for those the Father has given Him (1 Pet 1:3, John 3:5,6, 6:37, 39). This grace works independently of any human cooperation and conveys that power into the fallen soul whereby the person who is to be saved is effectually enabled to respond to the gospel call.
    `
    Okay, so… God picked a few people out of the billions who have ever lived (144,000 if I recall correctly) and according to this website… those are the only people going to heaven no matter what the rest of us do.
    `
    Well, that’s a relief. Either I won the lottery or I lost it, and in the meantime, it doesn’t matter what I do! Beer and strippers for everyone!
    `
    Blabbering about what you do not understand is not a sign of anything but foolishness.
    `
    Indeed?

    You have GOT to be kidding me…seriously. The reason I ask, is because I truly wonder how you can conclude that a “GOD” created and ordained life from before there was ANYTHING. I really would be interested to see your premises and conclusion in a semi-logical format. The other thing, is that I hope and pray that you realize your dreadful inaccuracy and pray that the FSM would forgive you of your blasphemies. They are truly dishonoring at the least. Praying that you change,

    You are missing the point of Darwinism, before this it was a held assumption to make something complex you need something more complex.
    .
    Now Darwin blow this out the water, so the assumption can therefore no longer be used as an assumption.
    .
    Now I am not doing all the work for you, How do you think this effects the way people think of how the Universe was created?

    Jim-
    “You think Plato and Aristotle were brilliant try reading the book of Romans in the Bible. Or try reading Aquinas or Augustine.”– Tried it. Found it rather boring, honestly. All those ‘thees’ and ‘thys’ and ‘burn in hells’….got old after the fifty millionth time, y’know?
    -
    “Go to Monergism.com and pick out any number of great men who believed and have lived their lives serving the One God.”–Super. Now you go and look up any of the thousands and thousands of great people who didn’t belive in god. Or who belived in some other god/ess/s altogether. What does that prove?
    ….Actually, not all that much. Who cares if Person A discovered some amazing thing and also happened to worship god? How does his being smart prove god is real? Also, may I just point out that tradition–belief in god–doesn’t automatically mean correct? Slavery was a tradition, shall we bring that back?

    One thing I’d like to say:

    How would you like it if I came into your church and tried to convert everyone? Rude? Obnoxious? Of course.

    Besides. Who said that religion was filled with “premises and semi-logical conclusions?”
    Isn’t the point of spirituality faith? That’s why they call it “believing.” You’re supposed to believe on faith, to [b]accept[/b]. The Bible, the Qu’ran — these are not semi-logical or filled with premises.

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
