Michael Shermer on FSM

Published August 8th, 2008 by Bobby Henderson

Here’s a video of Dr. Michael Shermer, founder of The Skeptics Society, speaking on beliefs and religion. At around 4:00 he mentions the FSM and addresses a Pastafarian in the crowd. He also mentions a rift amongst Pastafarians – disputes over the width of the FSM’s noodles. He seems genuinely concerned that this schism could damage our community.

    I thought the width of his noodles were angelhair pasta, hence the holy name for it.

  2. Platypus Enthusiast says:

    If He is infinitely powerful, we can assume He is infinitely noodly. Since He has an infinite number of noodles, he must have all possible noodle widths.

    The Noodly One is from a dimension where length, width, depth, height or even time are irrelevant. He created all those things for us.

    @Platypus

    Whoa! What is wrong with you people? He is the Flying SPAGETTI Monster. Therefore, is made up of standard spagetti. That is a type of pasta people. If it were to be questioned on the size of the spagetti noodles, well, standard of course. If not, he would be the Flying Thin Spagetti Monster. However, that is not the case. If you need an example, come over for dinner sometime and take part in his flesh with me. We will then have a living specimen. Don’t worry about the blasphemy of the whole thing, Christians symbolically eat their god’s flesh all the time.

    Whoa indeed Jessica! His Noodleyness is more than mere spaghetti he is also the most delicious deity. There is no blasphemes when enjoying the taste of the most delicious of all deities.
