flying spaghetti monster? Are you kidding me? I don’t think there’s any documents or books that date back as far as the Bible and are as accurate as the Bible. Try reading the book of Job. There’s so many things mentioned in that book alone that could not have been known by people, unless God brought it to light. Fresh water springs feeding oceans, deep trenches in the oceans, dinosaurs(40-42), yes dinosaurs not whales or hippos; many of these things we didn’t know until much, much later.

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

I love hate mail! It’s so stimulating!
I always just say arrrrrr……
Apparently this person is trying to get us to stop beliving…so i suppose he\she* is no better than one of those annyong people always coming to my doorstep trying to convert me, eh?
* I have trouble distinghishing gender…
@DPG–:lol: I went to the Conservapedia links. They are fan-damn-tastic. And great for a laugh. I like how it calls itself “the trustworthy encyclopedia.”
test?
I just love how the Conservapedia’s references were almost completely christian propaganda websites.
.
And what is up with their mention of Pangea? All my pastors, sundayschool teachers and xian teachers said it was a lie made up by atheists. Why would they lie to me like that? *cries out in confused anguish and despair*
The crazy thing is there are documents older than the Bible! The Egyptians wrote theirs all over the walls. Since there belief is older I think I shall be praying to Ra, Nut and Geb.
I like the way the Bible is described as ‘accurate’. Accurate compared to what? How do you prove it is accurate?
Lets start with ‘Jesus is the son of God’and ‘Mary was a Virgin’.
Problem…Jesus was supposed to have come from the ‘line of David’. Whoops! Daddy was not from the line of David… I could go on, but I don’t think there is a need, do you?
Apparently a non-believer is going to ‘Eat your [our] Flying Spagetti Monster.’ Well, at least the existence of the FSM has now been accepted!
“There are many thing mentioned in that book alone that could not have been known…………Fresh water springs feeding oceans, deep trenches in the oceans, dinosaurs………….many of these things we didn’t know untill much, much later.”
.
I’m confused. If these things are mentioned in the Bible, and if the Bible is old, then why didn’t we know about them untill much, much later? I mean, if dinosaurs are in the Bible then why didn’t the people in the middle ages know about dinosaurs?
“I don’t think there’s any documents or books that date back as far as the Bible and are as accurate as the Bible.”
You are right, most documents or books from around that time are more accurate than the bible.

“and by the way, this is my first post! yay.”

Welcome to the church of the FSM. Hang around, post some more if you like.
ahhh…..i love peope who think the bible is EVERYTHING when all it is is a bunch of stories that the “church” feels are important.
i love hate mail its great for when im sitting bored at home…and what exactly is christianity’s proof of god/jesus existing other than the bible…. WRITTEN BY CHRISTIANS! and isn’t it convenient that organised religeon inspires us not to think for ourselves but to just say “god did it” its the equivilent of a scared child blaming someone older…
Ignore that last one, it was meant for the next hate-mail letter…
P.E.T
Damn fundies.
Another embarassing thing a bout XtainsZ:
Their use of mixed metaphors:
Xtain music’s all time #1 hit song is a little number called “Open the eyes of my heart, Lord”. Talk about an unbelievably shitty mixed metaphor. Pity we can’t ship ‘em all to an FSM re-education camp where they can learn about Pasta based creationism AND use of rhetorical figures and tropes.
thanks for the welcome dutchpastaguy. and i enjoy ridiculing fundies as much as the next person, so i have a feeling you’ll see me around.
“I don’t think there’s any documents or books that date back as far as the Bible and are as accurate as the Bible.”
Which Bible are you are talking about? The English King James version? The modern French translated catholic one? The renaissance Latin one? The Hebrew parchments? the Russian orthodox one? The annotated Mormon one? The Jehovah’s Witness interpretation?
Cause they are all called “Bibles” and they are all widely different from one another. Please specifiy which one is “accurate”.
Kthkbye.
“There’s so many things mentioned in that book alone that could not have been known by people, unless God brought it to light.”
Unless some guy made it up… just sayin’

But didn’t you know that God built the pyramids?
Apparently the great pyramid is a pillar and suggests irreducibly complexity as well. :p

.
“The measurements of the Great Pyramid have revealed remarkable mathematical and scientific facts which confirm an architect of superior knowledge. The following lists just a few of these astounding facts:
• Twice the height of the Pyramid, divided into the distance around the base equals the mathematical value termed p (pi) to the nearest 1/10,000. Only recently has man been able to calculate p to this accuracy”
I thought the bible said Pi = 3? And remember that God wrote the bibble! Sigh…
.
Also…
“The Great Pyramid wasn’t built, or ever used as a tomb! ! !”

So there you have it…all perfectly (*coff*) logical!
We really should encourage them…they help us sooooo so much :p))
Hold on - the pyramid is a pillar? It’s been a while since I did any geometry but surely a pillar is something than has a reasonably consistent diameter all the way up, rather than being a square base with 4 triangular sides that meet in the middle, which is the roughly technical definition of a pyramid
