National Geographic promotes FSM

natgrap.jpg

I received the following email from Jonathon:

It is very gratifying to know that Pastafarianism is becoming a mainstream, accepted and acceptable, religion.

The October 2007 National Geographic magazine contained two articles of great interest. One was on global warming. The other was on the decline of the Malacca pirates. Although National Geographic may not have been brave enough to explicitly put two and two together, the connection is there for anyone with open eyes to see.

I completely agree. I don’t think it’s a stretch to think that they’re making a reference to the Pastafarian belief that global warming is related to the decline in pirates. It is a subtle message, but it’s there.

    Pity they couldn’t show the link between the two openly, but we all know it’s there.

    Bronze sucks.
    @Al — I’ll trade you my bronze for a quad venti non-fat sugar-free vanilla caramel macchiato.

    .
    Sure thing – I stopped drinking coffee a few years ago. It was making me a bit *too* hyper :D
    .
    I can probably use my alchemical skill to turn the bronze into erm, runny bronze.

    Bah, on the days I can sleep, I could suck back 4 triple shot lattes and a 2 liter of Jolt and still drift right off… But hey, insomnia makes me perfect for night watch duty! I’m even pretty handy at the helm! (helmet too, but that’s another story!)

    I’ve heard tell of a Hobbit movie, because Sir Ian McKellen is sad that beardy bloke won’t be directing it.
    Regardless he wants to play that beardy character (Dumbledore?) he played in the Lord of the Flies(?) movie.

    I thought they were still in court over the Hobbit and who was getting the rights to it. Although extremely cautious, I wouldn’t mind Peter getting a crack at it. Although, once again I reiterate, it is a CHILDREN’s book.

    BTW. Did you hear Dumbledore was gay? Well he was according to JKR.
    He had a crush on Gellert Grindelwald apparently.
    There must be so many jokes about Dumbledore taking Gellert Grindelwalds elder wand that the universe isn’t big enough to write them down.

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
