Your all just KIDS.
always pointing fingers and trying to be better.
when you realize what you are doing wrong its going to be to late.
FSM is nothing more than that of which it is.
And if you really think FSM can beat GOD…it already lost.
you have no faith. You probably cant even tell me what faith means.

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

“this site is lame if you ask me”
If I wanted your opinion, I would GIVE it to you, blasphemer!
you have poor grammar.
@ All pastafarians, atheists, humanists, Brights, and free-thinkers,
.
Ahoy there!
.
I’m copying this post onto a few threads because I’d like as many people as possible to notice it. (Bobby, if you should read this, is there any chance of a new thread?)
.
You might have spotted on these pages Richard Dawkins’ high-profile references to the FSM, unmasking himself as at the very least an honorary pastafarian and certainly a friend of pirates the world over. He’s done his bit for the FSM – here’s a chance to return the favour.
.
His many books on evolution and, in particular, his recent book ‘The God Delusion’ have influenced a lot of people here.
.
Anyway, here in Britain, one of our national newspapers, The Daily Telegraph, in conjunction with Morgan Stanley, is running the third annual ‘Great Britons’ awards. People are invited to vote for the British person they think has been the most ‘Great’ (somehow) in each of seven categories.
.
Me salty guts tell me that a hearty lot of pirates’ll want to support their own and put their cutlasses behind Richard Dawkins, by far and away Britain’s noodliest man of 2006, and doubtless also he of the biggest meatballs.
.
I nominated him earlier today, in the ‘Campaigning’ category. You can add your nominations by visiting greatbritons.org. It takes barely a minute and might help one of the FSM’s finest sea-dogs to the gain the legendary status he deserves. You can even put in a 50-word explanation of why he gets your vote, which would probably strengthen the case (if you’ve anything to say). If you’d like to know more about him, try visiting richarddawkins.net.
.
Douglas Adams fans might like to note that Dawkins and Adams were close friends and that Adams credited Dawkins’ books ‘The Blind Watchmaker’ and ‘The Selfish Gene’ as having influenced his reasoning towards atheism. Dawkins wrote a ‘Lament for Douglas’ immediately after Adams’ death, and delivered a eulogy at his funeral.
.
I’ve a second reason for recommending this. The Telegraph ran an article by regular columnist Charles Moor on Saturday that dismissed ‘The God Delusion’ as ‘fashionable’ and gave a very selective, wilfully interpreted representation of its content. It’s a good newspaper but pretty thoroughly conservative – not an obvious place for pastafarianism to thrive. In light of this, I think it doubly worthwhile to demonstrate the strength of support that Richard enjoys among the world’s many pirates to the Telegraph.
.
(Note – I’ve left http:// off the website addresses in this post, as the first couple of times I tried to post it, it got stuck awaiting moderation. Hopefully this’ll help.)
.
Nominations for the awards continue until November 24th. If ye can spare a second of plunderin’ time, set a course for greatbritons.org and add your cannon to a broadside for free thinking and the FSM!
.
May His Noodly Appendage be upon ye all.

Dear “not telling you my name”:
The problem with a phrase such as “if you ask me” is that it is usually preceded or followed by a comment that NO ONE asked for; I see that your post is no exception. Thanks for enlightening us all with your well thought-out argument.
@J
Done!

“Briefly, and due in large part to my reading of Dr Dawkin’s recent book, “The God Delusion”, but also considering the current atmosphere where primitive and dangerous myths people still live by are threatening everyone’s freedoms and lives, I’d like to nominate Richard Dawkins for this award. His work, recent and past, sets an example for scholarship, courage, fairness, and integrity that no doubt will serve the field of biology and science in general well. In addition, his work will influence education and public discourse on these and related matters for years to come. His willingness to speak to the public on these matters sets him apart from many academics, and his ability to explain and defend his position in public forums is impressive.
I’d like to be able to compare him to Carl Sagan, but Dr. Dawkins’s work promises to do much more than interest people in science. He speaks to issues that define our societies, and he is doding it at a time when we most need it.”
@not telling you my name
Who’s asking?
I had to go back and shorten my nomination a lot. 50 words max.

“No-one believes in the FSM? Complete rubbish. I myself would commit suicide to get to my Piratey Paradise if I didn’t have more important things to do.”
There’s a question: if one commits suicide do they go to FSM hell?
What is FSM hell? is it like over cooked spaghetti? A wattery strach mess that you can’t swin in due to the pecific density being similar to quick sand? A pernod volcano and a mary Whitehouse factory?
Why does the award on the Great Britons site look like a giant mishsapen bronze sperm?
FSM hell is the same but the tomato sauce is a little bit spicy, you know? Presumably the Anti-Pasta is there as well, maybe a little tomato bruschetta. I believe the wine side leans towards a Valpolicella.
Is all the wine more than £3.99 a bottle?
@MikeMeier:

You had a syntactical error in your LochNessLives function (calling the variable you used a double quote to open and a single quote to end), so I am afraid that while I ran it, I may have inadvertently created a loop, and there will be Loch Ness monsters coming to bathtubs near you. And you. And possibly even you.
`
It’s funny though, some people are nice individually, but get them together as a group, or let them post anonymous comments on a website, and their niceness quotient drops as fast as their IQs…
`
Christianity would not be where it is today without exploiting the mob mentality. This is fairly well documented in the Bible; charismatic preachers travelling from town to town and physically going after people garnered the most converts. So Christians are used to the nice, safe anonymity of the mob. And often people who have embraced the tenets of Christianity without actually embracing the philosophy are unable to let go of their hatred of “the different.” So when they have the opportunity to cast the first stone with safety from accountability, they tend to do so.
`
Please note that I am not identifying all Christians as mob mentals. Why, some of my best friends are Christian! And they’re fairly harmless really. Good sorts who hardly ever feel the urge to extort, threaten, bribe, or manipulate people into their system of beliefs. Oh, and they speak and write rather literately. So let’s not throw all Christians under the bus eh?
Throw Christianity under the bus, then let the (former) Christians board it.
@MM
Okay, I chuckled.
Ah jeez!! FSM can’t beat God?? How dare you? FSM owns God! Anyway FSM is probably Gods dad.
Well, you lose a little sumthin when you begin you’re (sic) rant with ‘your’ instead of the intended ‘you’re’. Other than that. . .
Whaddya mean “trying” to be better?! We ARE better! FSM rules!
Arg!!!!

FSM loves me, this I know
for the Pasta tells me so
Little meatballs to Him/Her belong
They are meat but He/She is Sauce
Yes, FSM loves me

Your all just IDIOTS.
Always pointing fingers and trying to be better.
When you realize what you are doing wrong its going to be to late.
Christianity is nothing more than an angry old man making up rules.
And if you really think GOD can beat FSM…it already lost.
You have no soul. You probabally hate spaghetti and pirates, too.
I’m not a kid myself, but I teach them everyday. Interestingly enough, they understand what an apostrophe is….
I think you need to read the Gospel of the FSM and pray. Once you have truly had a personal relationship with Him, you will be in no doubt of His truth, righteousness, and
