Gurney

gurney.jpg

I am an Urgent Care doctor in Austin, Tx. I was amazed last night at my clinic to notice this image of the Flying Spaghetti Monster manifested in a puddle of cleaning fluid on our trauma bay gurney. I have always considered myself an agnostic but I must admit this has given me pause. If there is an FSM then this must be a sign that He has blessed my patients with His noodly appendage. For that I am grateful.

    This is definitive proof of his existence, I mean, his image appearing so CLEARLY in a puddle of liquid, how else could this miracle be explained other than divinity, it could not happen by random chance.. Those stupid evolutionists would call it “random chance”, but I say this is absolute proof that nothing happens by chance and clearly his noodliness is alive in all of us (and apparently in cleaning fluids as well). We must analyze this miracle for purpose. Cleaning liquid, on a gurney… perhaps it’s a sign he wants our gurneys to be clean…. our beds…..to be clean… hmmmm I think it’s a sign that we should change our sheets if we have strippers in them and plan to have a midget over the next day.

    Wow, absolutely breath taking.

    LET IT BE KNOWN THAT THE FSM BLESSES THE SICK! MAY ALL WHOM ARE SICK BE TOUCHED BY HIS NOODLY APPENDAGE WHILE THEY LIE ON THE GURNEY OF LIFE!

    It sort of looks like the FSM attacking Jesus’s face. The bottom part looks like a beard.

    I was totally grossed out at first glance until I read that it was only cleaning fluid. Amazing likeness, though.

    Hungry to worship our Spaghetdiety.

    Ramen brother or sister. We can see here the ever present force of the FSM. You are correct, this is not by random change and he has touched your hospital and gurney with His noodly appendage and given his blessings upon you. As it has been said, cleanliness is next to noodleness.

    It is true. The FSM works in mysterious ways.

    Ha that is no beard; it is his many, many, noodly appendages. May your hospital wherever it is, continue to be blessed, and may all places where the sick go to receive treatment be blessed by his noodles.

    I was really sad today, too much work then I saw this and I feel inspired, like a born again noodle

    Oh my FSM, it’s him!

    Hmmm…
    I think you are way off about FSM there. I am pretty sure He is a benevolent being, and as such, He would never attack anyone - Not even the competition.

    This is utter blasphemy. Nobody should publish or even own images of Him. Creating images of our FSM is not what He desired. Technically we should not even speak His name.

    It should be enshrined….

    Hi. Great site. I run with a bunch of people and we plan to run a relay in June. I came across your site and wondered if you’d have a problem if we named our team Carbo Diem? We’d buy t-shirts, etc.

    Regards,
    rabidrunner

  20. 20 James D Feb 25th, 2008 at 8:14 am

    RabidRunner you may have to e-mail Henderbob about that, I am not sure if he checks the site constantly, or whatever, if he has responded cool, I know as the (read my above post as to how) King/Captain of all pirates that I am very pleased with your actions, and I hope to see you post again, possibly getting your own section if you take a team picture and send it to Henderbob, Good luck in your race and may the FSM sped you along with his noodly appendages, or just eat pasta beforehand and he will be with you, for a few hours anyway.

    brittni, that’s right, does “God” ever do it? No. He says anyone you doesn’t like him suffers. Wouldn’t it be amusing if the FSM was like the CEO of the Universe and God is only a janitor or something.

  22. 22 Prop Forward Feb 26th, 2008 at 4:14 pm

    Piratus, now it begins to make sense. God the janitor was moved to spill cleaning fluid in noodle form on the holy Gurney of Austin. I can only surmise that God seeks release from the prison that his “believers” have constructed around him. We must strive to assist God in his angst; FSM expects no less of us. RAmen

    Has anyone carbon dated this shroud yet?

  24. 24 Franko Feb 29th, 2008 at 9:11 pm

    This is one of my favorite sightings, all of which are growing ever more numerous. He is with us. Even more important than bodily secretions or spaghetti sauce, this formation of cleaning fluids shows His omnipresence and care for our purity. Jah! Pastafari!

  25. 25 Zach Mar 9th, 2008 at 10:37 am

    amazing…you have been touched by his noodly appendage

  26. 26 Cap'n Wolf Mar 30th, 2008 at 8:47 pm

    Truly remarkable. Blessed be you to see his likeness in cleaning fluid.

  27. 27 Michael Apr 8th, 2008 at 6:48 pm

    Um actually god does show miracles and signs….
    lol
    You sure r smart piratus!!

Purchase the Gospel

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
