unexpected fsm sighting in painting

I have been a fan of this site for some time. I have kept my devotion relatively silent, just telling a few of my most trusted friends (all of which are a bit eccentric and good humored.)

My daughter is 4, and although she is quite the free spirit, I have never mentioned FSM to her, as I am trying to let her discover most of her spiritual beliefs on her own. I came home from work the other day to find her latest artwork attached to my refrigerator. She tells me it’s a crab, but it bears an uncanny resemblance to FSM in my opinion.

Definitely the FSM.
She is clearly a gifted child.

    An apparition to a child! No one can deny the truth of the FSM now.

    The time is nigh! Surely the child is the Chosen One, who will soon lead legions of devout FSM pirates on a quest for the Holy Jar of Spaghetti Sauce!!!

    Ramen!

    This deserves a t-shirt… (sniff)

  11. 11 Laurie Soule Apr 12th, 2008 at 11:14 pm

    Hmm. It looks just like a crab to me. But I should think that crabs and pirates are intimately entwined. She IS a genius.

    She is truly a wonderful child. May we all be touched by mis noodly appendage.

    Perhaps “little people” sometimes refers to children?
    Awesome nonetheless.

    T-shirt! T-shirt!

    Truly an awesome site. Nobody can deny that this is a depiction of His Noodlyness and this child has truly been Touched.

    absolutly beautiful

    Thanks for all the praise, gang. I’ve known that my sweet girl was gifted for some time, but it’s always good to hear it from others!

    I am totally behind the T-shirt idea. I think we’d probably buy one for everyone in the family. To the web powers that be here, if you are considering this and need a higher res scan of this picture for printing let me know.

  20. 20 Paul The Burptist Apr 14th, 2008 at 7:10 am

    Her hands must have been truly guided by the touch of His Noodly appendage. She is a chosen profit. Can you ask her what the winning lottery numbers for next week are please? It’s not for me you understand, I will gladly donate my winnings to the Church of the FSM. Unless I change my mind. I’ll leave that decision in the Noodly appendages of the FSM.

    Merry Meatballs!

    I know the artist and can attest that she is a pirate/noodle activist in the making. Bless her, and her mother, for introducing me to all that is noodly.

  27. 27 Newly found FSM worshipper Apr 14th, 2008 at 2:37 pm

    Ask the FSM if he had touched the child with his Noodly appendage

  28. 28 Pastaviking Apr 15th, 2008 at 6:05 am

    I want to buy this for MY daughter, she is only 17months. Come to think of it, some of her drawings looks like pasta…

    Congratulations, your child has been blessed. May she (and all other children and adults) bathe in the warmth of the FSM’s sauce and be embraced by His Noodly Appendage!

    I have the same story - we have never mentioned the FSM to our 4yo daughter until she bought home the picture that is linked last week.

  31. 31 Barnacle Bill the Sailor Apr 15th, 2008 at 10:14 pm

    Oh now, that’s really sweet! I’d be proud to display that on my refrigerator, for sure!
    I have to go along with the t-shirt idea.

    It seems you have a failing digestive system. Please go see a doctor.

    I bet crabs were created in the image of Him.

  40. 40 Ben Apr 20th, 2008 at 11:04 am

    I have a similar story. My little girl loves to draw, and she always draws the same thing. It’s one line that goes round and round in a random pattern. Then she stops, looks at it for a while and says ’snake’. It could be that she is drawing a snake, or perhaps it’s just that I haven’t taught her the word spagetti yet.

  41. 41 BlackBard Apr 20th, 2008 at 4:51 pm

    When I read something like what “some dude in memphis” wrote, it is easy to see the difference between a “made up” religion/deity and a real one. The “the moon walking jello gobblin” is obviously just a fig newton of his imagination, while our master, The Flying Spaghetti Monster, is REAL and alive now.

    The all knowing and eternal creator the Great FSM once ordered seven orange chicken plates with fry-rice at my local panda express. I was convinced right away that he created the universe and everything in it. except David Attenborough, he showed up on his own.

    it’s a crab

    C’mon Barbara, fess up. There is nothing divine going on here. That is just your daughter’s palmprints. Her daddy is Antonio Alfonseca right?

    Wow. Once again, the FSM reveals himself to all!

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
