about the pirate ship

Hey, so rather than get an ordinary yacht to sail around the world
spreading the FSM faith, why not something a little more pirate-like.
I was in Bonaire with my family and this Junk was docked there and
seemed sufficiently pirate-like for you.

I like it.  Let’s brainstorm fundraising ideas.  Also, we’ll need to figure out how ship-time will be organized.  Ideas/Volunteers?

    Hmmm… I will help in any way I can, but I’m afraid I live smack in the middle of the U.S. No large bodies of water anywhere near. I’ll have to bunk with my cousins on the shore:)
    Bikini car washes sound good. So do spaghetti dinners.

    @Captain Noodulous Silicate TBHNA
    Mike could be invited……to walk the plank, don’t you guys think so?

    ARRGH.. has any one considered a boat wash then we could always scope out a bigger vessel while raising funds?The strippers would be an excellent distraction to the unsuspecting captains.

    Can somebody somehow realize that all this talk of strippers could possibly lead to blockage by Bess at schools ant therefor end my largest converting outlet. with 6 converts and more pirates (somewhere form 1-5) at Whitman it may be the largest concentration of Pastafarians in one area (in Seattle). There fore to case more converts I need the website so can “inappropriate” subjects please be avoided. (ignoring me is allowed)

  5. 45 Innocent Bystander Jan 25th, 2007 at 9:09 pm

    What are you converting them too? Stripper factories are what we get when we go to heaven. Maybe you should figure out out it is you are converting too?

  6. 46 Katsu Jan 25th, 2007 at 9:11 pm

    I am converting them to the idea that there is beer in heaven.

  7. 47 Thumper Jan 25th, 2007 at 9:52 pm

    Katsu. This is a heathen site. They talk of strippers and sex non-stop around here. I don’t think you should be here at all. Believe in God and pray for salvation. Find a good Christian website to frequent. I am sure your school would aprove of that. I can help you find a good site if you wish. Just let me know.

    @ Thumper

    Point of clarification. If you are using the term “heathen” as someone who does not belong to a widely held religion e.g. Christian, Jew, or Muslim, then I will take that as a compliment. If you are inferring a follower of a polytheistic religion, then you couldn’t be further from the truth. Pastafarians believe that the FSM is the one and only Creator of the universe. If you are suggesting unenlightened, then again you are misinformed. If you are implying one lacking culture or moral principles, then all I can say is why do you think the FSM revealed himself in America?

    You don’t think that Katsu should be here but, it hasn’t stopped you from gracing us with your presence, has it? We do have a short plank that you are welcome to take a long walk upon. Have a nice day. :-)

    C’mon people… we’re pirates.
    .
    Pirates = People who commit piracy (among other, less polite things ;P)
    .
    So let’s live up to the name. Steal the boat, then, when the authorities come after us, steal their boat, and make em walk the plank (within swimming distance of the shore of course, I’m not a bastard)
    .
    Otherwise, maybe we all find some common date (TLAPD would be good if it was earlier), get everyone to try and get into the local media, and launch a simultaneous ship drive all over the world. We could have a choir (if we could keep ‘em sober enough) singing shanties, with a pirate (or wench) channeling his noodleyness, and aim purely at making people laugh.
    .
    If they’re laughing, they don’t mind so much when you plunder their booty, and pillage their damsels!

    I’m with you, Jingles. A bikini car wash sounds fun but where’s the pay off. Even with the ever growing Pastafarian population it would take years. What’s next? Spaghetti dinner night at the VFW? Going door to door with a little can for donations like the UNICEF crowd? We need to think on a larger scale. We’ve got the book, how about a movie?

  11. 51 Arp Jan 25th, 2007 at 11:21 pm

    I like the sound of a bikini car wash; it’s classic enough to work, and the people who go to them usualy don’ care to what casue it goes to, so we could even get some Christians to donate!
    And for the crew, I have lived near the water a lot of my life, so I have no fear of sailing. Unfourtionitly, I, too, could only go during my summers, what with collage and such. I could do anything you need me to do, if you teach me…

  12. 52 Jingles Jan 25th, 2007 at 11:57 pm

    “We’ve got the book, how about a movie?”
    .
    Got any titles in mind? My seriously fatigued brain cvan only come up with “You, me and Ditalini”.

  13. 53 Wench Beth Jan 26th, 2007 at 12:08 am

    Jingles, you’re brilliant. Just brilliant.
    .
    Thumper, why do I have the feeling you’re actually on our side?…
    .
    Mike, that wasn’t a very nice thing to say to a girl. Please curb your offensive language.

  14. 54 Wench Beth Jan 26th, 2007 at 12:12 am

    Captain Mad John Kidd, you’ve got something there. A movie is the next logical step (said Spock). I’m sure we’d ALL be willing to act in it, and I’m sure there’s some really talented college students on this site who are involved in film, media, what-not. It could happen. I mean, they did the play in SoCal… I think a movie could be a realistic goal!

  15. 55 Jingles Jan 26th, 2007 at 12:14 am

    RAAAAaaaaaamen!

    To Navigator Spider… can you perform weddings on a ship?”
    yes you can, and i have a confession (hangs head in shame) one of my duties as an officer was to run church services. Not sure it was what you could call “traditional” once i had customised it a bit but i had fun ;-) i always made sure there was grog to follow, great at 11 in the morning!

  18. 58 Captain Mad John Kidd Jan 26th, 2007 at 12:51 am

    Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of animation like South Park or Sponge Bob. With scenes of Pastafarian Heaven, the beer volcanos, the stripper factory. Animee strippers would be cool, though that might be leaning towards an adult film like The Nine Lives of Felix the Cat.

    That said, I think a live-action documentary following the life of a Pastafarian missionary on a conversion crusade can’t be bad. Maybe splice in some animee strippers and the volcano for effect.

  19. 59 Captain Mad John Kidd Jan 26th, 2007 at 12:56 am

    Nice one, Spider. I served aboard a US Naval destroyer as a petty officer. Originally from the UK, I acquired a US citizenship through the service. Never performed a wedding ceremony though. Props.

  20. 60 Booty Jan 26th, 2007 at 1:48 am

    Sorry - going way back up the thread - I was certainly NOT washing up on the south coast! I haven’t done any washing up for ages, as the state of my kitchen will prove!
    It was an imposter I tell you!
    And if you are going to plunder me Spider can you let me know first so I can do my hair? ;)
    I think the animation film is a good idea :)
    Don’t stress about the church services Spider, we all have skeletons in our closets!
    Well, we’re pirates, what do you expect!

Purchase the Gospel

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
