you really wanna get a pirate ship church thing?
Was there not anything of 8 things telling the FSM don’t wants tempels or churches?I can undersatand if you want 1 million dollars or more for you, but then put this as the reason of merchandise and I’ll buy something.
If the money is for a stupid Ship-Church, I won’t buy anything, even if I like the car emblems and mugs a lot.
If you don’t want he Money for you,
GIVE IT TO A CABLE COMPANY, IN ORDER THEY WON’T CHARGE THE AMOUNT TO OUR BILLS, OR GIVE IT TO AN AIDS FOUNDATION OR WHATEVER.IF YOU WANT A PERSONAL PIRATE BOAT FOR SAILING AROUND FOR FUN FINE FOR ME TOO, BUT NOBODY NEEDS A FUCKIN’ PIRATE BOAT CHURCH, IT WILL NOT HELP YOURSELF, NOT ANYONE ELSE!!!

Don’t worry max. After we build the ship, i’m sure all of the money will go to a very good cause. Like going to help fight bad spelling, and mental illness. That’s something you can get excited about seeing as you suffer from both.

I know that this idea has a downside, but I’ve changed my mind about Johnny Depp. If the Scientologists can get whatsisname Cruise, maybe the Pastafarians could get Johnny Depp as a disciple, and we could get a pirate ship cheap from Gore Verbinski and could run a permanent good-pasta tour around the world. Just a thought….
I think it’s hilarious how you choose getting a lower cable bill over donating to an AIDS foundation.
It doesn’t necessarily have to be a church. We could have a pirate ship just for the sake of having one. It could be like a promotional thing, like the wiener-mobile.
I think the pirate ship cutch Is a bad idea. How many pastafarians would see/use this at max.I presume not many
Well, the pirate ship can be used to bring down global temperature, no?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but lack of pirates causes global warming, so the ship will help that. And, technically, it’s not a massive church. It’s to help the religion grow and prosper. Right?
Blessed be, and RAmen.
I’ve wondered about this myself. But then I realized. The Gospel says not to build church*es* - plural. Bobby’s only planning on building one. Therefore, as long as he doesn’t build another one afterwards, and spends the rest of the money on cable, etc, he’s fine. RAmen!
If you could establish a church for the Christians that could sail around, spreading the word of your “God”, wouldn’t you support it?This is the same thing, but with more noodles.
And you can justify multi-million dollar Christian churches? Even though a pirate ship church IS contradicting the 8 I-rather-you-really-didn’t s, so what? You already see lots of Christians stealing, murdering, etc. So why can’t he break one rule? Besides, it’s not if anyone REALLY believes in this.
The pirate ship is not a floating church!
We’re not to build shrines & monutments, i.e. spend stupid amounts of $$$ on crap that just sits there & does nothing, all in “his name”…
The ship is fully a fully functional vessel to help us “offer” our religion to others, and let them know of our religion.
There’s no contradictions on building a ship!
Besides he told Bobby to tell us everything in the gospel, he might have told bobby to do something else!!!

I thought the pirate-ship-church was an attempt to fend off global warming. More pirates spreading the noodly love will please the FSM, leading to a more stable climate. It’s a very serious matter of global importance.
it can be justified because we’re not using the money to BUILD one, we’re using it to BUY one. the 6th I’d really rather you didn’t says “I’d really rather you didn’t BUILD multi million-dollar synagogues/churches/temples/mosques/shrines to my noodly goodness” but we aren’t building, we’re buying and adding on. it’s a very fine line we’re not crossing. besides if it costs less the 2 million, it’s OKAY. then it won’t be a multi-million dollar church. do you guys follow?
It’s a tribute to the FSM. And it moves, so how can it be a temple of a place of worship. And it would be so cool. The FSM would approve.
6.I’d Really Rather You Didn’t Build Multimillion-Dollar Churches/Temples/Mosques/Shrines To My Noodly Goodness When The Money Could Be Better Spent (Take Your Pick):
i) Ending Poverty
ii) Curing Diseases
iii) Living In Peace, Loving With Passion, And Lowering The Cost Of Cable
I Might be a Complex-Carbohydrate Omniscient Being, But I Enjoy The Simple Things In Life. I Ought To Know. I AM the Creator.

I see nothing against acquiring a Pirate Ship in which to sail the high seas spreading His Noodly word?
Besides all the other religions change their interpretations to suit.
Take for example those cdesignproponentsists, their book says “Thou shalt not bear false witness” but now “lying for Jesus” is considered not only righteous and acceptable, but is a fundamental basis for all their media advertising departments! Just look at AiG, DI or Uncommon Descent!

The landlubbers can stay home :)
Also my understanding is that Bobby intends to *buy* a ship not *build* one. ;p)
I was under the understanding the ship was to spread the word, rather than to be used as a temple of worship.
I think this is the best idea since pasta in a can!
Hmmmmm,,,,thought we almost had a good one here. He can read!!! Too bad he’s not on board our ship idea. Time to walk the plank, ye fool. I mean really- what’s wrong with a pirate ship. No stained glass windows; instead we get beautiful views and fresh air!!!- what could be more heavenly?
It’s not really breaking the rule, since the pirate ship is more of a holy vessel in which to transport Bobby (peace be upon him) to heathens across the world and to lower the global warming. If heathens decide to repent whilst inside the ship, that still doesn’t make it a temple. But you believe the rule STILL contradicts it, then a tool for educating carb-lacking fools is truly the lesser of two evils.
Actually, I’m not sure that there’s any need in justifying it, if it breaks any laws than the FSM’s noodley appendages will destroy it.
I agree with Robert you can really use the mental retardation help. I wish i had a ship-church.
Hail the FSM!!
