you dont need to pray for us, you should pray for yourself because you dont have any scientific evidence for your god, yet you still worship it. this angers his noodliness. i suggest you write several pieces of theatre relating to pirates or spaghetti monsters to redeem yourself. there is still time to contain the horrid limbo that awaits you in the after life, but time is quickly running out. so write like you’ve never written before.

Chistianity isn’t a parody. Have you heard of the crusades? Those were usually sanctioned by the pope. So going by that evidence Jesus probably existed. What is Christianity and Buddhism a parody of? There is a significant credibilty Christianity has over the FSM. Now believe what you want but don’t call Christianity a parody you noob. For what it’s worth I believe in theistic evolution. And I’m Catholic so at least I’m not going to hell.

You shouldn’t even have to ask. We don’t, we shouldn’t, and that’s the point. There is a very, very fine line between the Flaying Spaghetti Monster and the conventional image of God, at least as far as evidence and applications go. If we are idiots for believing in our supreme, omnipotent, created-everything being (which we don’t) then you are also an idiot for believing in yours, as is everyone who believes what you do. (unless you’re agnostic, and serious, which I doubt) But wait, they’re all wrong because they don’t believe in my God. He’s the only true god, he said so himself. ok.

Everyone is entitled to their own beliefs, however having different beliefs from someone else does not mean that you should mock other religions.

I believe that this pasta based religion is a clever political vehicle to prevent ID in public school. But as a practical faith I’d rather subscribe to Ron L. Hubbard than Bobby Henderson. But I was merely giving you the benefit of the doubt that the existence of Jesus is a higher probablility than your monster. Pixel Pete I’ve considered the chance of you being the next messiah, thats a poor analogy. Capin, you can look up crusades on wikipedia. I believe that you were thinking of I CALVIUS, and you didn’t say what Christianity parodied. Additionally I think someone had a point that humanity is absurd. And we all will either go on being absurd or commit suicide.

You really need to learn how to spell really, and how to use the apostrophe. Isn’t it interesting that most people that send hate mail don’t know how to spell correctly? That proves that they are illiterate, which means they are uneducated, which is why they believe this “God” of theirs. Open your eyes Henderob! Proof of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is all around us! The FSM gave us the trees, the mountains, and the midgets! While most of the tree cutters are “Christians” and cut trees down for paper, flatten mountains them to make houses, and look at the midgets differently, we learn to love them all like they were part of us, unlike you.

I understand, my misguided and niave YAWEH following friend. The SFM is SO much different from your “god” that I might well be hard for you to recogize him as GOD. After all, unlike your “god”, the FSM never:
Ordered rape and murder (Numbers).
Punished people for NOT murdering captives (Numbers).
Punished an entire species for the sins of one man (Genesis).
Alowed the “sons of man” to have sexual intercourse with the daughters of man, creating a race of supermen (Genesis).
Ordered people to mutilate the genitals of their infant male sons (everywhere in O.T.).
And yet, I’m claiming that the FSM is a loving God. He just explesses is love differently from your “god”, by NOT, say, ordering people to sacrifice there first born son, or by NOT ordering 32 virgins to be offered as a heave offering. I no, it sounds strange to one who’s religion is so steeped in blood, but its really true! The FSM loves you. Love him! And were a pirite outfit.

God would never win in a modern court of law…
.
God: “Your honor, I must punish mankind for all eternity because the defendents, Adam and Eve, ate from the tree of knowledge of good an evil. It was clearly stated from the beginning that I forbade them to do so, yet they did!”
.
Judge: “So, let me see if I understand your position, Mr. Plaintiff…. You created a perfect world and into that world you created two perfect beings, the defendants, Adam and Eve?”
.
God: “That’s correct your honor.”
.
Judge: “At the time of creation, the defendants had no understanding of good and evil. They were innocent?”
.
God: “Yes your honor.”
.
Judge: “Into this perfect world, among these perfectly innocent people, you placed two trees, the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge, and instructed the defendants not to eat from them?”
.
God: “Yes your honor.”
.
Judge: “And then there was a third party, this serpent fellow. He coerced the defendant, Eve, into eating from the Tree of Life. Eve then coerced Adam to eat as well, correct?’
.
God: “Yes, your honor! They are sinners and I must punish them and all their progeny! I demand justice!”
.
Judge: “Calm down Mr. Plaintiff. I’m not finished. Where did this serpent come from?”
.
God: (tugging on his shirt collar) “Well, you see your honor, it’s like this. That serpent fellow, well he used to work for me. He was once one of my angels. Then he went rogue.”
.
Judge: “So, did you create this serpent fellow?”
.
God: (fidgeting) “Well, you know your honor… you see, he’s evil.”
.
Judge: “But you are the creator of all things. Who created the serpent if you didn’t?”
.
God: (sweating heavily) “Well, yes, I guess “technically” I created the serpent.”
.
Judge: “I think I understand now. Let me summarize. You, the plaintiff, aka God, created a perfect world. Into this world you created two perfect beings. You then created temptation by way of the two forbidden trees. You also created an evil serpent who in turn coerced the defenendants into defying you. You now wish to punish the defendants and all their progeny for all eternity. Is this correct?”
.
God: (beaming) “Correct your honor! I move that we get right to the smiting!”
.
Judge: “Motion denied! This is a clear case of entrapment. I find in favor of the defendants.”
.
God: (fists balled and stomping his foot) “But your honor! I’m God!”

Most Christians are descended from Adam and Eve, since there has to be a LOT of incest in their genetic background. Basically since Cain and Seth had no other women around they have to be descended from Motherfuckers.

That made no sense… Henderbob is the “leader” of “Pastafarianism”… which makes him the spaghetti-pope… which means that the FSM exists?
The crusades and Jesus have nothing to do with one another. If anything, the fact that a religeous leader was using the bible as a means to wage a war (”Thou shalt love thy neighbor,” “Thou shalt not kill,” etc.) should lead a rational person to question exactly how much of the bible is “Authentic” and how much of it was doctored for personal gain. I mean, after all… Would Jesus run out and kill millions of people because they don’t believe he’s the son of god? Come on, now…

I don’t believe that anything you read here will change your opinion about anything, so, do yourself a favor and ask your pastor what you should believe. Then tell your friends about it, not me. But, if you ever want to sit down over a big bowl of ’sketti and discuss it, I would do so. NGBWY.

Way to go maxwell!
Bobert: I don’t mind if adults want to believe in Jesus.I don’t even mind if adults want to believe in the Easter Bunny, or that aliens are bugging their brains through the telephone wires, or that pixies run the internet. I figure the stupid and crazy will always be with us.
What started the whole FSM movement is that the jesus retards are trying to pass laws to force our children to our children to learn their religion as science. THAT is not acceptable. Right-wing Christians try to pass laws forcing their stupid crap down everybody’s throat and then complain that others are being intolerant of their religion if they say anything against it. For respect to work everyone has to do it. The religious right broke the deal when they tried to sneak and bully ID into science classes. So when a religious lunatic sends and obscene and misspelled message to OUR blog he is open season.
Some of us aren’t shy about calling a retard a retard and as Maxwell stated so well. ‘If you don’t like what you see here, please GTF out.’

I may take my holidays and celebrate Christmas, but for me it has nothing to do with religion, it is just that the country I live gives Christmas off work/college so all my family can get together. I think you will find the timing of Christmas is very pagan, as it is unlikely Jesus was actually born on the 25 of December.

Bobert as I have said before we are in the middle of a war of ideology, whilst some people are using violence to help them fight this war, we on this site are lampooning religion in the hope that someone will read it will see how stupid our example is and then relate it back to there own religion.

Well for starters freedom of speach! every man has the right to speak his mind.

Yes, this is all a big joke. We don’t worship the spaghetti monster. We actually worship:
THE MIGHTY SPACE-TEACUP!
Our telescopes can’t pick it up but I know in my heart it’s there. Sure my “heart” is probably just feeling that way because my parents told me a magic Teacup orbits Venus since the day I was born.
And, yes, we constantly have wars with the people who believe the Teacup orbits Jupiter. But imagining myself and the divine Tea, which all faithful followers of The Great Cup shall receive after death, fills my soul with joy. How could this religion idea be a bad thing when it feels so good? (Or rather: How can illegal drugs be bad when they feel good, too and cause huge problems in society, too?)
I think Pastafarians should interact more with disciples of the Teacup, and the people who dress as ninjas and worship other italian dishes (I’d say pizza but that sounds too much like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles). What good is a religion without unending sectarian violence?

Once in a while I have to remind myself of why I’m here. I was thinking that ID proponents want it taught in school. Why? I mean, as kids we all had questions about where we came from right? My parents dragged me into church on Sunday, and I remember Sunday school. I remember knowing that God created the heaven and earth long before I knew of evolution. I knew there were dinosaurs too, and I remember thinking “why don’t they talk about dinosaurs in Sunday school?” This must have been an important point; I mean Adam must have fended off attacks by T-rex right? Then I learned about science. Science explained things. Even when I consider m-theory, in all its complexity, I don’t give up and say, “ah screw it, this is too hard. I want to go back to believing God made all this”. Proponents of teaching ID must realize that intelligence overcomes creationism. As knowledge grows, mysticism and religion fail. For thousands of years, religious scholars told the sheep that religion was the answer to all their questions, as knowledge of science was not able to do so yet. If we can dismiss one bit of religion, it all falls down. Without teaching ID in school, most children will have their eyes opened to science, and religion looses sheep (sheep = money, power, influence, status etc.). Once again, zealots want to limit our knowledge to the level of their own. Nothing like blowing out another’s candle to make yours shine brighter.
May the Noodly Appendage touch your mind.

Chistianity isn’t a parody. Have you heard of the crusades? Those were usually sanctioned by the pope. So going by that evidence Jesus probably existed. What is Christianity and Buddhism a parody of? There is a significant credibilty Christianity has over the FSM. Now believe what you want but don’t call Christianity a parody you noob. For what it’s worth I believe in theistic evolution. And I’m Catholic so at least I’m not going to hell.
The Crusades were a horrible excuse to kill off a bunch of people. Isn’t it a sin to kill people? Well, then how come during the crusades, all the so-called “Christians” went and killed or tortured people who weren’t willing to convert. The Pope was being a douche and just wanted to kill people because they didn’t think like he did. Tolerance, anyone?
I’m Catholic too, but I don’t agree with most of the stuff that the Catholic church did.
To everyone else who just doesn’t seem to get it:
And please, can you not see the humor in this? Do you not realize how sometimes Christianity is taken too far? Too seriously? Let’s for once, have some fun and not get all pissed off because someone said something about your religion that offended you. Scew it, it’s not even offending you. What has the “Flying Spaghetii Monster” ever done to Christianity? Nothing really. It hasn’t killed off people has it? NO, because it’s a joke…so please be willing to laugh and if you don’t like the Flying Spaghetti Monster I have a solution for you: don’t come here anymore.

Bobert,
you are using ‘circular logic’. The Pope sanctioned the Crusades, to secure the holy land, because this is where jesus lived. Therefore the crusades prove that jesus existed, because the pope, following a book which said that jesus existed, sanctioned the killing of lots of people. Therefore jesus existed.
It’s not logically sound. But that has never been a problem for uber-religious folk.

Bobert; you said “for what it’s worth I believe in theistic evolution. And I’m Catholic so at least I’m not going to hell. ”
Then you said “I’m not offended by the church of the FSM. I wasn’t justifying the crusades. I believe in evolution. ”
Then, “theistic evolution” suggests; God Almighty created the heavens and the earth, and all life upon the earth. He accomplished this process over billions of historical years. He has been in charge of this process since the beginning of time and He still is in charge. He directed the unfolding of life forms over time that many people call evolution.
So, since you are Catholic, you aren’t going to hell. Since I am a Pastafarian, I must be going to hell according to you. Then you state you believe in Theistic evolution, which sounds strangely like creationism, accept God has now become responsible for the evolutionary process. THEN, you say you believe in evolution. THEN you said some other stuff that I didn’t bother to read. Are you converting to Pastafarianism? Or abandoning your Catholic faith? Or are you choosing to believe parts of your religious teaching and rejecting other parts? Or are you confused, angry, and out-numbered? You could go either way here. Dig deep into your fear-based, immature, closed-minded religion, OR open your mind and realize that Catholics, Protestants, Mormans, Scientologists etc. have been sold a bill of goods. Think for yourself. Ask rational questions and be open to rational ideas and your faith may change.

It’s never too late. For most of my life I have been a Taoist Anarchist. For those who aren’t familiar with my former belief system, a TA has the benefits of understanding that you move with the Universe and therefore stay in harmony with the Universe and its Creator. That being said, the Anarchy portion comes into play when you’re just plain bored and want to see if you can throw a little chaos into the Universe to see what happens. For many years, theologists within the Church were worried this meant evolution, so they were killed. At any rate, it really only led to drunken orgies and lots of pirate songs. No harm done.
Now I find the truth in knowing my Creator, The Flying Spaghetti Monster. Although I am now a firm believer, I find that my previous teachings still augment my now enlightened mind.

First off my life is not dedicated to this thread. I’ve been at school/work so I’m sorry for the delay. I’m also sorry for missspelling one word. Lord knows that I’m not perfekt. It’s my belief that God created evolution. And has been around influencing various aspects on Earth. I don’t believe that we came from Adam and Eve. Theistic evolution has nothing to do with Adam and Eve. There are probably books about it. I’m believe that we came from very basic ucaria, and through time and natural selection we are what we’ve become today. I think that some outcomes of natural selection and gentic drift, God played a part. But feel free to think otherwise. I’d like to also point out that none of you have suggested that you behold any practical knoledge of evolution.
I’d also like to point out that I am not a bigot. I know I would prefer to have normal and healthy offspring. (I love it that so many of you didn’t grasp such a general colloquilasm) It’s a terrible thought to wish that upon someone. I however believed that some of you had deserved it. And you maxwell, you would fail that polygraph with flying colors. Do you actually believe that global warming is directly correlated with pirates. In the 1800’s there would hardly have been an accurate census of pirates. (it’s not like they had ss#’s or anything)
So this is my fond farewell, I can clearly see that revisiting this site would be a waste of my time. Your arguments are so full of fallacies that it’s not worth it to me. I’m above your piddly grade-level,there is no benefit for me debating with you on account of your dimwittedness. I’d like to pose a rhetorical question, who’s the dunce now?

Actually, that was the most genuine stuff you’ve said yet. I don’t mind talking about ideas and discussing beliefs. You said from your heart what you believe, and I wouldn’t make fun of that.

I regret that you still stooped to calling my a dimwit, but I was not too nice to you either I guess. I think you focused so much on what you thought I believed, and judged me based on that assumption, that you missed the bigger idea that I object to people forcing their religious beliefs on me. I don’t think I ever said I was a believer in Pastafarianism, but I support whole-heartedly their message. Too bad you used your last post to express your most moderate views. I would have liked to debate them some more (without the mongoloid + dimwit stuff).

Leaves me desperately wanting to chat to Bobert, but knowing that I’m just shouting into an empty room.
.
It’s just skin-rendingly frustrating when you’ve reached an opinion on the world by questioning your beliefs, questioning what you were brought up with, listening to both sides, giving both sides a chance, reading, thinking, reading more, thinking more, talking to friends, listening to people better informed than yourself, facing difficult emotional decisions, testing yourself and your opinions through public behaviour and through debate, being honest with yourself about how you feel about your own opinions and seeking to address any holes, sticking points or inconsistencies, for years and years – and then to be told:
.
‘Your arguments are so full of fallacies that it’s not worth it to me. I’m above your piddly grade-level,there is no benefit for me debating with you on account of your dimwittedness. I’d like to pose a rhetorical question, who’s the dunce now?’
.
Well, Bobert (if by some weird chance you are reading this) – if you insist on reducing the debate to that level: you are the dunce. Doubly so, in fact, because a question doesn’t just become rhetorical because you say it is – the answer has to actually be blindingly obvious. Actually, the answer in this case *is* blindingly obvious to your audience – but I assume you didn’t really mean to end your post by saying ‘I am a dunce’.
.
Bobert, if you do read this, all I ask, and all anyone on this site would really ask, is please, please, please keep on thinking. You obviously know a bit about a number of the issues involved in this. But the fact that you’re so ready to slam the door when challenged suggests a worrying closed-mindedness. Sure, keep Believing if that suits you. But don’t be suspicious of doubts or attacks against your faith. Give them space, listen to both sides – try as hard as you can to prove yourself wrong. Remember – a worthwhile attack will come from *outside* your faith – any belief system that pretends it can define and counteract all its possible flaws from within is lying and should make you very suspicious. Keep thinking, openly, honestly. See where you end up.
.
Good luck.

“I’d like to also point out that none of you have suggested that you behold any practical knoledge of evolution.”
I agree that I for one have no “knoledge” of evolution, however I do have a fair bit of knowledge of evolution. Your story sucks!
“I’m believe that we came from very basic ucaria”
So god created the ucaria ?? Then everything evolved from it? Is the ucaria as a sacred entity in your church then?
Your last two statements were very childish. Calling out personal insults as you run off down the street? Seems to be a lot of that, from opponents to evolution, in these threads.

I’ve been looking back over this thread. (Love OEJ’s courtroom drama, btw.) And I’m starting to think I may actually have been too nice to Bobert. He said some bad, bad things.

You know, I think I am starting to have a crisis of faith. Not of my faith, but of others.
.
We keep getting new people coming and posting at us, insulting us, deriding us, dismissing years of work by scientists, because their faith tells them to.
.
So we argue our case. We may be pedantic, we may be a little mule-headed, but every single time, without fail, we argue our point logically, with humour, or with at least some semblance of reason.
.
So many of the people we argue with give up. They tried to win through a theistic spout, they couldn’t, and so they go.
.
Some, such as Christian (who has endured a fair bit of a savaging at our hands, and who I have a lot more respect for) still remain, and still continues to bring up good points.
.
BUT unfortunately, we continue to get waves of new fanatiics as well. As fast as the previous ones leave, we get new ones. The same ridiculous claims, the same unwillingness to listen to our arguments, the same accusations and damnation.
.
Does anyone remember Jason (yup, im in the bible belt)? How bout James in Germany? Or the hundred of others we have argued the point with? Why does it keep going round and round in circles.
.
Where do these people come from? Who the hell makes them act like this? WHAT THE HELL makes them act like this?

How can a faith that preaches so much love result in so much hate? Why are humans so screwed around in the head?

.
Maybe patient repetition is what successful missionaries are made of.
.
I wonder whether we could persuade Bobby to put in a ‘Pre-Posted Pastafarian Pearls of (P)Wisdom’ page. We could edit the interruptions out of the best discussions we’ve had and put them on there. Or plunder the forums and cobble together the best answers we’ve got for the most commonly recurring issues. Then, instead of reasoning everything out over and over and over ad nauseum, we’d have a self-constructed resource to point people to.
.
I tell you what, though. This place does sharpen your argumentative faculties. Like Davey suggested a week or so back, you can test and refine your anti-theistic armoury here. And maybe, when we’re just not learning anything new anymore – maybe we need to go out and meet ‘em face to face.

I found a few editorial articles responding to their ideas, but that’s all.

Fighting Against the Forces of Darkness

…..But is the Christian community prepared to discuss these larger issues of philosophy and worldview? The Enemy has no plans to step aside just because we have better scientific facts than they. He is committed to getting his message out to anyone who will listen.
Are you?”

Some religious apologists argue that incest did indeed occur among the children of Adam and Eve. They had other children other than Cain and Able. Their argument is that genetic mutations are a consequence of our accumulated sins. Since Adam and Eve were God’s first creations, their genetic code was without mutation. Due to the lack of “sin mutations”, incestual reproduction would not result in the birth defects we observe today.

I may just, technically, be an irish kid of the age of 15, but if god is perfect,, why would he feel the need to create anything, much less an imperfect world? If to be perfect is to be complete in every sense, then why would he feel the desire to create, and why would he feel the need to tempt his people. To me this suggests either sadism , or really having nothing better to fdo with his time. If anyone wants to hear of anymore arguments against God(s) i’ve got a few more cooking here. And by the way, in case you haven’t noticed,im not tryinfg to offend your beliefs, these are merely my own.

And by the way, person who originally wrote this ridiculous piece of hate mail, can’t you see that the entire concept of pastafarianism is satire, as it is equally plausible as the deities of islam, christianity, Buddhism, etc. There is no more proof of their existance than their is of his noodlyness, therefore it is an equally valid theory,and therefore must be disproved before you can denounce it in this manner.

You wanted to know what Christianity parodied?
Christianity parodied the Egyptian God Horus (also known as Amen Ra)
Son of Isis and Osiris born to the human Virgin Mai on the Winter Solstic (usually around dec 21st – 27th) in a stable beneath a bright star.
Witnesses to the birth of Horus included shepards and 3 wise men.
Horus became king of egypt and performed many miracles including walking of water, bringing a man from the dead and splitting food to feed the many
Horus was however eventually crucified by an enemy of Egypt
Horus was buried in a cave where 3 days later he rose from the dead and went to sit at the right hand of Ra (the almighty sun god)
when the egyptians prayed to Horus they often ended their prayers with the word “Amen”
The Story of Horus was 1st written about 5000 years ago in approx 3000BC………….

That is all true (you may google it)
My point is religions were all created at a time when idiotic people coodnt explain the world aroudn them and were scared, so they invented stories to make them feel better, those stories became belifes which eventually had rules put to them to make them religions leading to disagreements, wars, death, suicide and all sorts.
in a modern world we have no real need for religion, we all know all religions are (more or less) incorrect and there is no real difference between an almighty invisible being or a flying blob of pasta, either could be just as likley
if your going to waste your life beliving in strange un-proovable things, and worship something you cant see, speak to, or proove is there…….you may aswell choose a religion that gives you beer volcanos and a stripper factory when you die

He told me that he invented all the other religions to confuse and misdirect those not worthy of his noddlyness!! It all makes perfect sense now..

Thank you for this absolutely pathetic troll job. I really appreciate people that literally eat shit, then make fun of someone who buys a BigMac at the McDonalds they work at, and aspire to someday become manager of, comes here trying to mock us. Again, thank you, it’s been appreciated.

@spaghettitastelikeshit:
No, Mithraism really does predate christianity and did recognise those concepts first. if christianit had been wiped out early on in its existence, the western world would now be largely Mithraic.
and christianity is a religion. you pay homage to a prescribed set of behaviours (the 10 commandments) and humble yourself before your invisible, unprovable skydaddy in order to gain his favour. christianity is therefore, irrefutably, a religion.
i seriously hope you get your manager’s position at Mcdonalds. i haven’t even been into a Mcdonalds for about 10 years now. as mentioned earlier, if that is the total of your life’s ambitions…well, to be honest fuck you. just go fuck yourself entirely. i’m through being polite with you stick-up-the-arse, earth-is-6000-years-old creationist militant scumfucks..

@Noodle! Do The Holy Noodle Dance
If you ever get back to this, please take into consideration that when I said ‘a blind squirrel could do it’ it was HYPERBOLE!
.
(from dictionary.com)
hyperbole
–noun Rhetoric
1. obvious and intentional exaggeration.
2. an extravagant statement or figure of speech not intended to be taken literally, as “to wait an eternity.â€
.
I was pointing out the obvious fact that even a blithering moron like spaghettitastelikeshit can pick out a few random numbers. Looking back, I can’t even believe I was prepared to defend my statement against a thirteen year old that can’t understand the difference between the literal and the implied.

By “eat up your ass” I meant your head. It’s stuck up your ass. And you eat shit, so I guess you do eat out of your ass. And how the hell did you get into college with that grammar. See how many jobs you’ll get right out of college. Scriptwriting? Directing? The biggest directors in hollywood don’t have directing, or cinematographic degrees. With architecture, I have a guaranteed job right out of college. But I might major in Computer Engineering or Mycology instead. You can take your college (that I’ve never heard of) and stick it, ’cause I don’t give a shit that you try to impress us with your useless degrees. Learn some grammar, and argue like a normal person.

BTW, last time I met someone with a directing degree, they said, “would you like fries with that?”

“what did they do to deserve this” By ‘they’, I assume you mean the Christian fundies who are out to convert the world? See, I at least have no problem with your average everyday Christian. My two closest friends are both Catholic, actually. But the people you see on THIS site are too busy preaching eternal hellfire to be very enjoyable. So if you’re not a fundi, get over it because we’re not talking to you. (well, most of us aren’t, anyway.) If you ARE a fundie…then…..oh well, sucks for you.

FSM: Oh, nothin’ much, just showing the Fundies the path, really funny actually!
God: Oh, Yeah! Heh, those fundies still don’t realize the bible was supposed to be a theological storybook, not a guide to life?
FSM: Hells yeah?!
God: HELLS YEAH!
Zeus: Hey guys, how’s it goi–oof!! *punched in the gut*
God: Get back to scrubbin’ the floors! No one’s worshiped you for centuries!
FSM: Yeah, and tell Pandora not to open that damn box again, last time she created those fundies, this time, something worse will get out!
God: something worse than fundies? Shit, that’s gotta be bad!
FSM: Yeah. It’ll be Nazis. Ninja Nazis. With lasers.
God: OH NOES!!!
FSM: ZOMG! LOLOL!1!!

On the contrary .. within the space of a few posts you have dropped your aggressive intolerence, improved your spelling and grammar significantly, and even shown the ability to see both sides of an argument (”Please do not make fun of this comment, it would be so immature. Whatever go ahead, make youself feel good”). Just shows what hanging around with a few grown-ups for a bit can achieve. Plus, of course, the subversive power of the Noodly one, corroding your faith without you even being aware of it. Muwahahaha!

You claim none of us have a life yet you seem to enjoy comming on here and trying to make everyone pissed off? which is pointless as we’re all good humoured people who just laugh it off
as for your comments about Mithra, Mithra DID predate Christianity, by a good few hundred years infact, and you failed to comment on the Egyptian Man-God Horus, who predated Mithra by a few thousand years!!!
and assuming we are all unsuccesful loners when all youv done is read a blog about Holy Pasta is a random assumption dont u think?
im not going to bore anyone with the details of my life (coz lets face it its the internet, i could say im a russian billionare who owns a spanish football team and how would you know?!……..im not tho lol) but i lead an exciting, fulfilling life that i enjoy and websites like this always give me a chuckle :-)
