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
@Bo Johansson-
When it says contact the forum admin, i believe it means via email.
Try looking around for some of the admins’ email addresses.
hm… this is good quality hate mail. I only wish she would accept our noodle god… but to each his own!

Hey Mvemba,
.
Are you for real? I consider myself pretty good at deciphering between sarcasm and seriousness…but either you are an extremely dry person or extremely misinformed. I’m banking on misinformed. If this is the case, listen carefully. We (the scientific community) DO NOT just put things into computers and wait for a date. There are decades of research, sampling methodology, sample preparation and quantum mechanics that go into determining how old a particular piece of bone, wood or stone is. Do you understand what radioactive decay is? It is the absolutely regular (like a ticking clock) decay of an unstable isotope (variation of an element based on atomic weight) into a stable isotope. This regularity is measured in terms of a “half-life” which is the amount of time it takes for the total amount of unstable isotopes to reach stability, it then taken another half life for the remaining half to reach stability, another half life for the remaining quarter of unstable isotopes to reach stability, etc. This regularity has been empirically measured by counting the number of alpha or beta emissions in a given time and then extrapolating this count into time (just like when you take your pulse and count for ten seconds then multiply by six to get how many beats per second). This can be done for numerous isotopes including Carbon 14, Argon 39/40 and Uranium. Similar strategies but with different methodologies exist in the form of Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) dating and Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) which can work on tooth enamel and quartz sand grains, respectively.
.
Listen, Mvemba, we don’t have to live billions of years to be able to accurately date artifacts and objects to that time period. The same principles that govern your TV, your ipod and most modern technology govern the principles of dating methodology; deny your TV works if you want to deny that dating is accurate. Given, as dates become older they become less reliable in terms of accuracy but if you ever actually read an academic article where these dates are published, you will also see increasing margins of error for these older dates. This is how we determine if dates are reliable…based on the possibility of contamination and the specific expected versus given isotope counts.
.
If your post was actually dry sarcasm, then I’m sorry, if it was serious, then I certainly hope you learned something.

P.E.T.
Lol indeed you are so right pastafarianism is so silly lol lol…….lol.
Thanks for answering Cap’n Ollie.
The only moderator that has a mail-button is Capellini (if there are any others please let me know) but I have to be logged in to mail her. And since I can’t log I can’t mail her… I am probably a member of around 50 different forums and this has never happened before. The only solution seems to reregister with another nick and e-mail and I would rather not.
Apparently someone is moderating these comments - can’t you please help me in some way?
You’re right, sir, we are crazy. A food god is preposterous, but a woman being created from a man’s rib is perfectly acceptable.
I have a question: I make lasagna for my students, as a teaching tool. Sort of. Could I be considered a Pastafarian if I don’t actually make spaghetti, but instead use lasagna noodles? Would this be considered blasphemy or am I guilty of heterodoxy? Do I need to start making lasagna out of spaghetti noodles in order to worship properly?
Thanks for being nice about your disbelief. :) We get a lot of mean, abusive people here. This is refreshing.
In my opinion… You have to have just as much faith to believe in all the bullshit that Christians believe.
Yes, dear henderob, I do believe the author of the site is kidding. And if you had SOME common sense, you would, too.
Ehm, Damita, the publisher and author og the site Henderob (or Bobby Henderson), yhe writer of this piece of common un-sense signed at the bottom of the piece.

Bobby, maybe it’s an idea to make this more clear??

WOW IF WANT TO THINK THE THERE IS A GOD WHICH IS MADE FROM FOOD IM GOONA BELEAVE IT, ITS FAR BETTER THEN GETING YOUR RELIGION CRAMED DOWN YOUR THROAT BY SOME OLD DRUNKEN MINISTER WHO LIKES SPENDING TIME WITH THE YOUNG QUIR GROUP!!!!!!!11
So instead of spaghetti you worship a really old pervert? I am not talking priests here either. The guy supposed watches you constantly throughout the course of your life, likes to populate the world with 1 family, and will torture you eternally for not worshiping him. 3 Fetishes there I will describe and how FSM does not have them:
1) Watching you known as voyeurism, FSM likes to give you private time whenever you are naked or doing something he would rather not see, whereas the Christian God will watch you constantly throughout your life, non stop to see if you ever stop worshiping him.
2) Incest, twice recorded in the bible, he has forced one family to get it on repeatedly in order to make more children, (Adam and eve, Noah) whereas the FSM made a lot of midgets and they grew taller over time.
3) Sado masochism, the enjoyment of the torture of others or yourself. The worst a pastafarian gets is Stale Beer and strippers with VD and even then its only if you were a total jack ass belief is not even mandatory for our heaven. What do you get for screwing up even once in your faith? An eternity of torment while your god watches you to make sure you stay there, so who is better? Your god probably has even more weird fetishes if you read the whole bible. (Like the whole snuff fetish thing)
I hope you all enjoyed this commentary of a dirty old man, verses the FSM.

You’ve got to have a lot of faith to believe in an invisible man in the sky who created us just for the hell of it.
Vera is right.
And don’t forget what George Carlin says.
The invisible man has a list of stuff he wants us not to do, and if we do it, he sends us to suffer for eternity. But he loves us. *rolls eyes*
PoJo, that’s a great point :D
Hey Just to tell u guys pasta was created by man
Michael, so was God. Pasta, on the other hand, is an actual thing created by man, whereas God is a large group of thoughts created by man.
If you’re going to have God crammed down your throat, wouldn’t you rather it be a tasty God with parmesan sauce? RAmen
