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

first post, finally. :]
i like.
Umh, it’s not very interactive, is it? Oh well, another monument to our monster…
AAAARGH!!!
Not sure it would attract new Pastafarians, though…
People talk about the Pink Pound. But there’s clearly a Pasta Pound.
This religion is so big its a market.
Woo Hoo.
RAmen.

Yep, I’ve got already three T-shirts and some Jolly Fish oval stickers. A design religion, aha!
RAmen to you Pirates!
I miss hate-mail.

I miss hate-mail.
.
I miss real live fundies, that follow through on the hate mail.
That’s what I miss.
Ramen
Don’t worry, guys, someone in Kansas (or the White House or wherever) will do something stupid any minute now and we’ll have hate-mailers tearing us apart again.
Are those hate-mailers real anyway? I’m still convinced they are joking Pastafarians, especially those who “follow through”.
Perhaps it’s just me (and maybe I should be concerned) but this looks rather “phallic”. Of greater concern is that it looks to be caught in something unpleasent…is this all too Freudian?…should I quickly phone my girlfriend?
it does look rather phallic.
… but then again so do some of those crucifixes.
It almost looks like the FSM is getting wound down into some medevil torture device.
@Kaptain Jimmy
“It almost looks like the FSM is getting wound down into some medevil torture device.”
It’s something “devilish”…I’m not sure that this is the kinda thing that peace loving Pastafarians want inhabiting their nightmares.
@Convert
Yes…I’ve seen The Exorcist…nuff said…
@Convert
Interesting Q & A.
@ Convert, it does look rather phalic.
.
What on earth does your phalus look like; don;t tell me I don’t want to know.
.
Suggest you see a Doctor; get some penicilin.
.
God gave us penicilin, to be used in cases just like this.
Well he gave us Alexander Fleming adn he gave us penicilin.
Well he gave us Flemings mum and dad, they did the deed and…
.
But I bet Flemings dad’s phalus was in better nick than yours must be if it looks like that.
@Privateer
I don’t think Convert has a Phalus…unless it’s in the bed side drawer…
Hail Daqq,
May I humbly suggest that a piratical “arrrrrr or yarrr” is probably better than “AAAARGH!!!”
I have visions of knife wielding creationists attacking you as you sit at your computer.
Ramen and shiver me timbers, arrrr.
I wonder if it were made out of latex & had an electric motor with variable speeds what the potential could be for the adult market.

It’s been a while (at least two days) since I’ve posted something from the “good book” so I thought I’d dig up something useful to throw back at fundies.
.
You may have noticed that a typical fundy thing to say about the FSM is something along the lines of…”there’s no such thing as monsters”…when you hear this type of irritating and irrational talk I might suggest that you confront the fundy with the Bible tale of Bel and the Dragon at 26 to 27 *wabbit clears throat*
.
“So Daniel took some tar, some fat and some hair and boiled them all together. He made cakes out of the mixture and fed them to the dragon. When the dragon ate them it swelled up and burst open.”
.
Ok…the fundy will probably try and say that the dragon was really a dinosaur that co existed happily with the people of that time but honestly who ever heard of baking cake out of tar, hair and fat…there’s no way you’d get the cake to rise properly. Plus, the tar would stick to the baking tray and not mix with the fat or hair…In my view to get a dragon or dinosaur to eat it you’d at least need to put a tablespoon of honey in it…ridiculous…fundies will believe anything…
@Thumper
ha ha ha… thanks for the great bedtime story.
Interesting sculpture… fascinating rendition of the FSM.
.
Ah, it feels wonderful to be free of the strain and stress and power of being GOD again… back to being my glorious self.
.
But getting back to the subject… yes, it does look somewhat phallic… although when it’s shown in the YouTube link, it doesn’t look quite as much so.
@Varthonai
Nice to see you back and yourself again.
.
I’ll assume that given that you were “God” for a while you’re au fait with current events with respect to my “coming clean” at being a fundy in satire only…just in case you were looking to pick on poor ole Thumpies belief structure again…
HA! I knew I smelled a flaw in that “Jesus was too soft on crime” argument!
.
Now that I’ve thoroughly patted myself on the back… welcome, Thumper, friend of friends! Have you taken me up on my recommendation of the demigod Neil Gaiman?
.
Also, I’ve changed my home page since I stopped playing GOD. Check it out! I’ll give you a verbal pat on the back if you can figure out all of the symbolism…
‘Scuse me, the last home page wasn’t quite right. It’s fixed now.
*Sigh* or not. NOW it’s fixed. If the server’s HTML glitch isn’t doing the same thing…
@Varthonai
Come on!!! You didn’t suspect a thing…Jesus being soft on crime is a perfectly valid fundy position…I did strongly suspect that you were God though…just ask Bill.
.
I’ve already checked out your homepage and was intrigued…numbers are not my thing…lemmie think about it some more…I did learn something about “gravy making” however…
@Varthonai
You’ve got me on 28 Number 29r29…thought it may have been a reference to “Numbers” in the fundy book of madness…I guess no verbal pat for the wabbit. If I recall correctly you suggested that I read “The Sandman” comics…not yet…but I’ll keep my peepers peeled.
.
Is Neil Gaiman a demigod or a minor deity? Just an odd thought…either way his secret’s safe.
@Thumper but for Convert
Sorry to hear you don’y have a phalus, although you probably don’t see it as a problem.
.
Word of advice, if you ever have an encounter with one that looks like that; run.
.
Run as fast as you can for as long as you can, but don’t give in to it’s demands!
@ Convert
Just run, run and keep running.
.
I expect your father told you the same thing?
@Privateer
It’s true, I don’t have a phallus & if I ever saw one, I wouldn’t know what to do with it. ;)
I still stick to my statement that the above picture looks a bit phallic in the same way O’Keeffe’s paintings of black irises look like vaginas. Think symbolism, not replicas.
@Kaptian Jimmy
yeah it totally does look like medieval torture device. Poor FSM.
@ Thumper
No more fundie crazieness? Aww, but you were so good at it
@ convert
As long as your comfortable in yourself.
.
I’m sure you’ll soon be told that you are just the way the good Lord intended you to be.

If you are the message will be in CAPITALS
Anybody get to build one of these babies yet? as soon as I have time over the weekend I’d love too but right now I’m much to busy with school work and such. RAmen and Yarr
Today is Ash Wednesday, so I think tomorrow we should all decorate our faces with swirls of tomato sauce and let the world know that we are marking the following twelve days of sadness known as the Time Of Cheeselessness.
Hey, I’m new to this. It’s just an idea…
Cheers.
@Farrar- I like it! But can it just be red paint? Sauce seems like it would start to ferment after a while.
lipstick would be best… but of course I say this after the fact.
These videos should be in clamation form
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la.
That is a new song I wrote. what do you think?
What the hell is wrong with you guys? All you people talk about is how a Flying Spaghetti Monster is the “holy god”. I don’t understand how you can look around this world and think that a Flying Spaghetti Monster made it. What is up with saying that the FSM holds you down with his noodley tentacles and say that’s gravity. And what is up with this thing about short people? At least my god loves everybody. All I’m trying to say is that you guys need to get a psychiatrist. At least go sit in a white room for a couple weeks.
@sam
The FSM is not a god, he is an omnipresent and omnipotent (though hopefully not omniscient, especially after what happened last Thursday) noodly monster! And if your god loves everybody, then where did the crusades come from? and the Salem witch trials? and the Westboro Baptist Church?
In all honesty, I can’t see how you could believe in a god who is so hypocritical.
And read the open letter, sam. It is on the home page, and if you can’t see what we are actually here for then YOU need to go to a psychiatrist.
um… sam sounds fake to me. or stupid.
@Gromer, I hope you don’t intend on patenting that, because I’d be all out of things to sing.
sorry, *Gomer
@Varthonai
“Also, I’ve changed my home page since I stopped playing GOD. Check it out! I’ll give you a verbal pat on the back if you can figure out all of the symbolism…”
.
It took a while but I think I’ve figured this out…your name is unique!…i.e. “Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name.”…Is the wabbit correct?
.
Given that you seem to have vanished again I won’t hold my breath for that verbal “pat” should I indeed be correct…
Need… new… thread… power… fading……
Please fellow pirates, we need more material on this website!
@Meow_Mix
Stay strong fellow pirate! New threads generally come on in bundles, so if you wait for a little bit there should be several. There are plenty of old hate-mails that are genuinly hillarious, they should hold your appetite for a while.
I think its upto the Prophet to start new threads.
Proly not mush we kan do.
hi
how silly

heh..
the thingo up the top is shit plain and simple, now drop it.
