How about membership cards instead. Then I could be a card-carrying FSMismist.

there’s one big lon FSM holiday.
we call it the holiday season. while other faiths are so stupid to just make thier holiday last a few days, ours lasts way longer!!!!.
so whenever some1 says happy holidays, he might just be a pastafarian.

RAmen, and Happy Holiday season

Woah. I was just about to search the site for spaghetti-related holidays, and then WHAM this turns up. Some of His work, perhaps?
Anyways, i was wondering: is there an official date(s) for any FSM holidays?
There would probably have to be several:
Pirate Day
Pirate-Fishmas
Beginning of the world anniversary
and of course, Flying Spaghetti Monster day (which needs a better name).

@Grand Questioner
He doesn’t really mind, as long as it’s spaghetti. He generally prefers the kind you spend at least a little effort on, but just as long as it is starchy and tasty He will be happy. as to the “non-meat meatballs”, if they really taste like that then you should probably switch brands. Come back anytime.

I ask becuase I must know. I’m far too henotheistic to become a true beliver, but I think my husband may convert to Pastafarianism. I am filled with joy to hope this, because 1) it gives him peace, 2)this makes him easier to shop for, and 3) being married to a pirate is just damn cool.

My question is this, since we will probably be in a household of various religious beliefs: is it proper to cook spaghetti, or is this an offense of the FSM? How about spaghetti with “non-meat meatballs” as hubby calls the processed-and-frozen, easy-as-hell-to-cook variety?

May all find Peace in Pasta

Many hurrahs and huzzahs and proclamations of piratical glee! FSM’s noodly appendages have snaked their way into another method of spreading the good word (and accompanying good food) to the populace. one more step towards recognition for our faith.

Uh, Bobby? You say you’ve never seen so much propoganda in one place.

A pasted gift for the Scottish, sorry I couldn’t find the author.

The Scotsman Song
(Author Unknown)

Well, a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening fair,
And one could tell by how he walked that he’d drunk more than his share.
He fumbled ’round until he could no longer keep his feet,
And he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh, Ring di diddly ay oh,
And he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

About that time two young and lovely girls just happend by,
One says to the other with a twinkle in her eye:
“See yon sleeping Scotsman, so strong and handsome built?
I wonder if it’s true what they don’t wear beneath the kilt!”

Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh, Ring di diddly ay oh,
I wonder if it’s true what they don’t wear beneath the kilt!”

They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be;
Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see.
And there, behold, for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt,
Was nothin’ more than God had graced him with upon his birth.

Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh, Ring di diddly ay oh,
Was nothin’ more than God had graced him with upon his birth.

They marvelled for a moment, then one said: “We must be gone.
Let’s leave a present for our friend before we move along.”
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon tied into a bow,
Around the bonnie star the Scotsman’s kilt did lift and show.

Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh, Ring di diddly ay oh,
Around the bonnie star the Scotsman’s kilt did lift and show.

Now the Scotsman woke to nature’s call, and stumbled towards the trees.
Behind the bush he lifts his kilt, and gawks at what he sees.
And in a startled voice he says, to what’s before his eyes,
“Oh, lad I don’t know where ye been, but I see ye won first prize!”

Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh, Ring di diddly ay oh,
“Oh, lad I don’t know where ye been, but I see ye won first prize!”

It is quite windy on the sea as well, I once met a scotsman in a kilt walking around a corner on a rather blustery day on land and I have still not completely recovered.

@Jon E
From my studies of history I don’t remember Scotland being a particular sea power in the age of pirates. No doubt a number of scots were part of the crews of english ships, but they probably would be discouraged from wearing kilts. Plus wearing a kilt on an all wooden ships would surely be a good way to get a splinter in the arse. But I am knew to the church so you may want to consult a more tenured member.

I’m fairly sure that there were scotish pirates, so I would have thought that a kilt would be totally acceptable as pirate wear. Anyway if you’re a pirate you really don’t need to conform to anybody elses ideals of style.

As a Scotsman living in France the news of the great noodling came late to my ears. I have been saved from the evils of Richard Dawkins just in time and have consecrated myself to Chow Mein (as you know one of the stricter teachings of the noodliest FSM).
I love the cards and I carry everyday the pirate fish and fish ‘n’ chips “car” badges on my bicycle’s saddlebags in order to combat the unbelievers. I also have a Ganesh but that is just for fun. Who could believe in a god with an elephant’s head? Ridiculous.
However, I have a question. Is kilt wearing an acceptable form of dress for a pirate? This question has kept me awake night after night, particularly as it is in a rather loud Buchanan tartan.
With noodles of regard,
