I must admit I was a skeptic….
UNTIL——
this afternoon when I picked up some photos I had shot of a thunderstorm over Lake Superior two nights ago. This is one of the photos I took of the storm—I did NOT see this image of The Flying Spaghetti Monster until AFTER the film was developed at Wal-Mart! I SWEAR!!!
Praise Be To The AllMeaty!

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

yay i got a gold medal thats a definite first
Now I too am a believer…squared.
Amazing!
that be very holy i reakon, or he’s punishing us
dammit just missed bronze, well done to new yorker, long jane and papa
PJ, where’s my ‘za?
maybe you didn’t see Him til it was made ’cause He changed the negatives with His noodly appendage!
May the Sauce be with you!
RAmen!
in the last post, i basically meant He is trying to help convert you via your photos
RAmen
@c(n)s - how is that punishment?
please explain
RAmen
@ anyone - can you post links to any threads with b.l.r on them? i need a laugh.
The picture is great, but you need to get digital.
well the storm looked quite violant the first time i looked at it
I would have liked the picture even before the FSM touched it with his noodly appendage.
The purple is just fantastic.
That is a truly great picture, thank you for sharing it with us.
It must be working…as I look outside my windows I can see the white stuff falling to the ground. As I watch the flakes are getting bigger and bigger. Okay, enough now, after all it is summer and the winter has been long. Oh FSM, warm noodleyness of the world, please hear my plea and make it snow somewhere else, perhaps over the Vatican or Mecca. R’Amen
RAmen. The majesty of the FSM is evident in all his works!
Hmmm. It appears that whoever took this picture did make one mistake. He/she should not have developed the film at Wal-mart. Perhaps His image is a sign telling you not to shop at Wal-mart.
That’s a nice photo.
Congratulations, new york pastafarian, on acquiring the initial response on this thread, which awards you the gold medal for the United States!
Yarrr! You made that with the Tesla coil in yer peg leg! Anyone with a proper-fittin’ dermal ocular blankie can see it!
Oh, and I love the image of FSM in the clouds. He is truly omniscent and omnipresent. Beats me what those words mean, but they sounded good.
hmmm… maybe He wants an even spread of pirates… it gets too many in one place, it gets cold, some leave! simple!

Threads of B.L.R.? Hmmm… I’ve been to months of therapy and several sessions of transcendental meditation, and I still don’t know what, in the name of all that is good, B.L.R. was trying to say. I don’t know if I can go back there… My therapist assures me that it is alright to look into the past, but maybe the B.L.R. part should stay buried.
i understand.
i wanted to see em to have a laugh and such.
anyone else who can post the links?
Damn…these people aren’t very good at photoshopping, aare they?
Um..I mean…Argh, that be really cool!
Very nice photo. Thanks.
Hiya Saucy :)
Please don’t look ok :))

“anyone else who can post the links?”

BLR?? You’re keen! :p)) or maybe masochistic. For months no one on CoFSM was even game to mention that name, lest she (it?) reappear :))
Anyway I posted some links for you on “Global Warming, Pirates, and the Rise of the FSM”

@Bruce
That’s a really great pic :))
I think one of the best proofs so far of the existence of our Noodley FSM. The xtian’s “cheese sandwich” doesn’t even come close!
Who is BLR?
@Wench Nikkiee Jun 25th, 2007 at 9:18 pm
“Please don’t look ok :))”
Erm….of course I want you to look ok! To feel “ok” as well :))
I should have said “please don’t look at the links….ok :)”
.
That’s a great picture! :))
RAmen! The Allmeaty has shown us his noodley self by means of this film.
nice pic. this might conince some people but i bet there is sombody out there saying “what a fake. they digital changed it.” but i belive in him and this pic.
@Gaara the Pirate
It was developed at WalMart, how could it be digitally changed? :)
I am a Philadelphia Pastafarian, any others out there?
@One-eye
i wasn’t saying it was fack. i stated that other people (christians, athiests) would say it was a fake. I’m a fredricksburd beliver and there is no pastafarian for miles near me. so is there anyone in virgina?
Just out of interest. Is marihuana in pastafarism sacred just like in rastafarian beliefs? Or better yet. Could I claim it to be sacred, for I am a pirate?
A real photo if I ever saw one.
To Whacky William the Bookaneer… my understanding is that whatever we Pastafarians want to do is sacred. And if we don’t want to do it, that’s sacred, too. I think you could certainly claim the sweetleaf to be sacred. That’s my humble opinion as a devout worshipper of the FSM.
That FSM storm photo is TOTALLY authentic and anyone who disagrees is gonna have to meet me at dawn with a frying pan!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMFSM frying pans again! I love it! :))))
.
I’m with WB - basically anything is sacred, so enjoy! :)
This cannot be. Is fake. Because of water Lake Superior has no tree. I see tree and I see telephone pole. Because of water Lake Superior has no phone.
Wait! Spaghetti Monster phone home. Ha,ha,ha,ha, , , ,
Get out! Get out! I not finish yet!
Dear Worplesdon Bugler, have you been accidentaly hit by a frying-pan? Beth, was that you? He hadn’t even posted an objection yet!
No, I haven’t gotten Worplesdon Bugler with a frying pan yet… oh, no, that means he’s the way he is normally!
Thats what I was afraid of :(
my dear Worplesdon,
please use an ounce of common sense, this was not shotdirectly above lake superior but somewhere in te vicinity of aforementioned body of water

P.S., i am sad today, i got a haircut to have a really awesome mohawk, it was 5 inches tall and the most awesome thing my head had ever had, but my parents made me shave it of…… now i just waer a pirate scarf with hundreds oh jolly rogers on it, good enough eh?

“now i just wear a pirate scarf with hundreds oh jolly rogers on it, good enough eh?”

Heaps better…much cooler than a mohawk any day :)))) Everyone else will be jealous!

Should just go away now… By by… You are sooo Not Hawt!
Transparent too! Takes more than you got Baby….
Aloha..”shanties”? my ESL professor told us pirates sang “chanties”..lived in “shanties”..&, from reading several threads here..rarely wear “panties”..(the exalted Red Thong Wench/Mistress of the Y-zone is a blessed exception…also obviously “hawt”..)..my family in the “bad old daze” very much enjoyed visits from DU sailors..all that Vegemite acted as a meat tenderizer..”no go poke wit’ fork..buggahs ready fo’da plate lunch direc’ from da imu..”..i hasten to add that was before we all got religion & ESL certificates..(& SPAM..)..may we all be TBHNA..

METHYLENEDIOXYMETHAMPHETAMINE for CHILDREN
what are christian values?, are they like your name which suggets giving ecstacy to children? or is it inqusitions, witch hunts or crusades that give a christian his “values”
i eagerly await your poorly spelt response
oh btw, pirate shanties rock
(if you were joking (i hope so)then this is just for extra laughs)
Sixteen men on a dead man’s chest,
Ah yo ho yo ho and a bottle of rum,
Drink and the devil, take it down, with the rest,

One of the other FSM stalwarts posted it a while back, felt it deserved a bump up.
Aloha & a teentsy explanation to New York Pastafarian..all that Oz talk of Vegemite just brought back memories of the days when my family(among many others, i hasten to add) enjoyed (in a manner of speaking) the visits of (pre-tenderized) Down Under sailors to our islands..it was just an aberrant thought-line..&, around here, aberrant thoughts usually lead to aberrant behaviour (happy, Zankou?) and trips to the SPAM aisles @ our local grocery..& a Whaler’s Rum-influenced “ARRRR” to Jingles & “The Good Ship Venus..”..”figurehead of a whore in bed & mast of a phallic genus…” & so on…speaking of pirates-anyone else old enough/weird enough to remember ZAP Comix & Captain Piss-Gums & Ruby the Dyke (her ship’s name? “The Quivering Thigh”)? Jack Sparrow’s a fine figure of a man, but Captain Piss-Gums is the shit..apologies for leaping off-thread..”eet wass rhum an’ a one-eyed houri wot see-dooced me reeson, Cap’n”..
“I did NOT see this image of The Flying Spaghetti Monster until AFTER the film was developed at Wal-Mart!”
…More like you did NOT see this image of the flying bullshit until AFTER it was Photoshopped! Anyone with half a brain can see this was edited… it doesn’t even look near real.
@what…the…heck Jul 1st, 2007 at 2:28 am
” it doesn’t even look near real.”
.
It *IS* real!!
.
“Anyone with half a brain can see this was edited…”
There was NO edit!! Have faith my child and you will be touched by His Noodly Appendage. You don’t want to spend eternity drinking flat Beer in the company of diseased Strippers now do you? All you need is a little faith and to open yourself up to feel embrace of His Noodly Appendage.

@thesorgo
“Jus got back from North Carolina last night
hope i didn’t miss much”
Lots of hawt comments from/about Paris Hilton. And an attempt to have some serious debate about global warming, see the ‘fm,ailiar refl;ectioon’ thread. Apart from that the usual fun.
.
Still not been forced back to church attendance?
North Carolina is the bomb! i’m heading there in two weeks.
I wonder what the point is of making a rude post. There is no point here because everyone will just point out all the flaws and laugh at the sender. In this case, the sender usually never returns to see how ignorant his/her comment was.
@Stereotypical Environmentalist…
For them is little point but to make themselves look stupid. We get a laugh out of it.
The Xians are laughing at this clear an unequivocal message from the FSM, their own claim God communicates through the weather:

How sad is that. Did you know that Anglican bishops still have a vote in the House of Lords in the UK.

If you want to make your voice hear more strongly there is a site that lists atheist petitions:

I miss the blue name links. I haven’t gotten any new souls in weeks :(
Many a time, when I was driving home, I have seen the FSM protecting my car and others. I just never had a camera to prove it.

The FSM works in mysterious ways Arp.

No, I don’t want to spend eternity drinking beer at all, alcoholism is a sin and so is stripping…
PLEASE don’t tell me you guys ACTUALLY believe this shit…
@what…the…heck
“PLEASE don’t tell me you guys ACTUALLY believe this shit…”
.
Hello again “what the..”
.
It’s all about faith my child :) Same type of faith the xtians use. I mean they have faith of/in a hairy man sitting on a big throne in the sky surrouded by flying babies with harps? Then there was that talking snake? A woman made from a mans rib?? Wouldn’t mind being able to pull the water into wine stunt off though. Be a hit party trick that one .:))
.
Have faith! Have faith and you too will feel the enlightening warmth of His Noodly Appendage. Once you have, you will never look back and never question the talented powers of Our Noodly Creator ever again.
RAmen
Oh and due to our loose morals, we also support the eating of Irish babies!
RAmen
“No, I don’t want to spend eternity drinking beer at all”

There are also vocanoes spurting other varieties of alcoholic beverages, as well as non-alcohlic thirst quenchers :)) Whatever your heart desires :) It is a heaven after all!!
.
“alcoholism is a sin and so is stripping…’”
.
Says you! No such thing as alcoholism in the Heaven of our Noodly Master anyway! That’s an earthly condition!! Stripping is a sin? Wow your clothes must get really smelly huh?
Oh.. Oh.. Oh…did we tell you that our religion also comes with a thirty day money back guarantee too! Does yours?? Well does it?
RAmen
@ WN - Hello and RAmen Wench Nikkiee! I am doing a post-and-run…sorry can’t stay to chat. :(((

Stripping is a sin? Wow, the Empress of Thong is in trouble! :))))

Well, best get back to the grog…came in for a refill!
@RW
Hi Rowdy :))
“Wow, the Empress of Thong is in trouble!”

Oooh yeah! :O
@Nikkiee
Ramen for your posts to what…the…heck. Well spoken.
And has anyone found a cure for HDD yet?
@ WTH. Alcoholism a sin? Not a disease? I suppose it depends upon your denomination. I’ve known a few Catlic’s who like more than the odd cask of whisky. Likewise some atheists who resist the demon drink entirely.
.
I suppose if you’re an evangelical you could just cast out the demon of addiction. Telling people they are demon possessed is always agood ice breaker at parties!

Sigh, afraid not. I’ll keep on looking though :) You never know, I might find something! Nobelprize, here I come :))
@Allchemist
“Likewise some atheists who resist the demon drink entirely.”
Me being one example. Although I don’t avoid it because I see it as ‘the demon drink’.
@RDPW
Good luck with that. It would be a prize well deserved if you pull it off.
“…resist the demon drink entirely.”
.
Ya! Possibly not the best choice of phrase for here. Just that I have a feeling WTH isn’t unknown to me :)
……..a little PHOTOshop touch up could yield your Walmart pic into some MAC and cheese. yum! But, why no reference to the FSM in the Highly Bable??
