Ah… yet another ‘fringe’ religion trying to go main stream. Yet I wonder if you realize that standardized religion was set in place to keep the general masses in line? You see there was no standardized religion in the beginning. It wasn’t until the general populace started to become unruly that anyone decided to slap religion upon them. That way the leaders of the church could easily control those who threatened to topple their empires by creating a set of rules. I find it funny that supposedly only the leaders of these churches commune with “God” or whatever you choose to call your ‘creator’.
To be frank, I find your religion to be quite humorous. I also have something to point out that has been pointed out before… Why is it that your ‘creator’ is a mass of wheat, meat and tomato sauce? What if spaghetti had never been invented? What would you choose to idolize as your ‘creator’ then? I find it sad that you have sucked in these poor, directionless people. I personally find it sad that anyone needs to look to religion to find some sort of meaning to their life. We fear that which we do not understand. It’s simple human nature. If you feel the need to have a god, or goddess, or flying spaghetti monster or whatever run your life for you… fine. I still pitty you.
As for the doctor pointing to the bacteria as “proof” that a flying spaghetti monster exists… Please, don’t feed these people false hope. What you depict is simply a bacterium. Those tendrils or ‘noodles’ as I’m sure you call them, are simply a means of propelling the microbe through fluid. Be that water, blood, whatever. Your ‘pirate’ weatherman? Simply a man who had eye surgery and must wear an eyepatch to protect it from becoming infected. Your swimming ‘FSM’ in Northern California? Kelp. More commonly known as seaweed, but in fact the two are different. And finally… your proof that ‘Pastafarianism’ (which might I add isn’t clever at all) began in Israel? Simply a work of modern art placed in an old temple.
The name ‘Pastafarianism’ is actually a clever play on ‘Rastafarianism’, which was started by a Jamaican man named Rastafari. I find it sad that so many people believe so devoutly in this well thought out and well played joke. To see that so many people fight for this just proves my theory that humans are impulsive, dim-witted creatures that try so desperately to explain that which they can find no plausible answer to by turning to religion.
In closing I must state that the ‘global warming issue’ isn’t an issue at all. In fact the world still hasn’t fully come out of it’s second ice age and the rising tempuratures we are seeing are a result of that. Once more an example of humans fearing that which they do not understand. We try to explain things that frighten us. It is simply human nature. Also I must ask why you think that pirates are a different species than humans? I believe you said something about humans sharing 95% of their DNA with primates (specifically chimps if I remember correctly) and over 99% with pirates. Please… how many of you are truly that ignorant?

“Why is it that your ‘creator’ is a mass of wheat, meat and tomato sauce?”
Isn’t it self evident?
.
Wow kieran, you’re so much cleverer than we are!
All we ask (actually demand) is that our theory be taught in schools as yet another alternative explanation of creation.
Won’t someone think of the children???!!!!
Uh-oh, we’ve got a smart one here. You’ve seen through us Kieran. We’ve finally been exposed for our dishonest intentions. And we would have got away with it if not for meddling kids like you!

“What if spaghetti had never been invented? What would you choose to idolize as your ‘creator’ then?”
.
Good point. We’d probably have to choose something that has been invented. The pain, the pain.

Surely he’s kidding. Even the religious nuts are sharper than this guy.
Kidding? Missing the point with THAT much virtuosity, that’s no kidding: you have to study a lot to achieve such level!
I must say, we’ve got a bright boy here. I bet he got all the gold stars in grammar school.
If you actually read some of the items contained on this site you would have realized that the creator that is discussed is said to resemble meat, wheat and sauce; not actually be comprised of those things. Thus inferring that those ingredients are actually modeled after him, not vice versa.
Also as with any religion or belief system people tend to see their creator in all things around them.
Alas I ask all the Pastafarians to pray for something, certainly not your soul, but maybe your sauce.

Please, could anyone tell me that nobody in the USA takes the FSM serious? It is tremendously amazing how stupid half of you guys are. It is unbelievable that literally nobody of the hardcore-christians gets the point and that almost everybody of the anti-FSM-faction forgets his/her so called christian values when discussing the matter. No offence…
I don’t wish to speak out of turn or rush to judge, but Kieran is a wanker.
