This is just pure bullsh**, what religion creates T shirts, ipod covers? I don’t see people wearing T shirts saying “Christianity”, or Ipod covers with the cross on it. This is a scam, you people need to get out more.

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

Please calm yourselves.
I realize that we all are part of a religion, whichever religion that may be, because we believe it is the right way, but in turn there can never be pure undoubtable truth that any religion is right or wrong. We all have the gift of free will and free thinking minds, whether it be given to us by his Almighty Noodliness, or by any other god or goddess. So please, give up this arguement. There is no right or wrong answer. Yes, the persons point about the money is a poor one, but again his has his own opinion and Im very sure that his Noodliness would not want us to say that ‘Some1′ cannot put forth his oppinion. Thank you.

I dont mean to point fingers, but you dont remeber the “wwjd” campaign? t-shirts, hats, shoes, arm bands, the works. it was like a jesus/livestrong campaign. and its not just chrisitians that make product promoting their religion. mormons go on mission trips around the globe and give mormon based products to help spread their religion. you need to stop and think real hard here. companies advertise to increase their business and revenue. so based on that very limiting thought, one could assume a religion was nothing but a business, if one had no knowledge of either extensively and only looked at that small amount of data. mcdonalds billboard’s, wwjd and chrisitan based billboards. fsm ipod covers, the entire “chrisitan rock” section of your local music store. yes, i am comparing an ipod cover to an entire genre of music, but still. i am simply pointing out one religions use of advertising in this “pure bullsh*t” you claim.

I see a lot of Christian t-shirts, a lot of Christian bumper stickers/adornments…and last time I tried to get a Bible for free – they wanted to arrest me for shoplifting.
_Everyone_ makes money off of _everything_ if it
a) amuses
and/or
b) arouses
and/or
c) amazes
the potential consumer.
The whole organized religion thing fails on all three tests for me, but the FSM is good for 2/3 of the list, and that makes it a winner for me.

Wow. I just realized the depths of the meaning behind the poster’s post. You know how Plato and those ole Greek dudes would argue about reality and perfection and how everything in the material world is an imperfect copy of the Platonic Ideal? You know – this chair is only a shadow of the one true chair and the arguments about the shadows on the wall of the cave and all that?
Well – we’ve just been told that the FSM is not of this realm! He/She/It is pure perfection, untouchable in its ‘Noodly Glory’. To repeat PURE BS!
All other religions are imperfect BS! f you’re gonna have some BS, why not get it as pure and uncut as possible Some1 said so! All hail the pophet! One can never have enoph pophets!111!!1

Clearly, you’ve missed the point. Scam isn’t the phrase I would use. I would simply say this “religion” is making a statement. You aren’t expected to believe anything you read about this religion, no matter how outrageous and unbelieveable it may seem to you. If you think about it, many people feel that way about Christianity. How can something so unbelieveable and outrageous be a true explanation for how we all came to be? … what a glorious conundrum.

This is an amazing statement. I would just like to point out that there are christian music festivals where people make thousands off of merchandise such as those you listed in your argument. Also, many christianity churches will pass around donation jars, where they ask you for money (My dad dragged me to both of the events i have listed).
Praise be unto His Noodly Goodness!

“Just a question, what is tithing?”
.
Tithing is handing over 1/10 of your hard-earned income over to a church. Churches promote this as a virtue and a worthy goal. Some try to make it a duty, and enforce it through guilt. ( I wish I could come up with some scam that would get people to give me 10% of their income!)

just because you don’t want to see t-shirts and ipod-covers advertising Christianity doesnt mean they aren’t there! FYI just about EVERYTHING is advertising Christianity these days! you have t-shirts, jewelry, books, music, tv channels, and ipod-covers! and some of those things don’t even display a cross and yet have the same effect! so why do you complain if a few people do make money off of Our Holy Flying Spaghetti Monster? our creator does not mind and neither should you!
