Brilliant! Dazzling! There should be a little cash left over from all those religious tax exemptions. “Passersby could donate money in return for hearing club members read aloud from the book of their choice.” Brilliant!

I do have a question though: Where do the profits of the FSM's store go to? Could we start funding a serious tolerance campaign? Because if so I'll throw in $500 right off the bat. This was a great initiative by an Atheist/Agnostic student group and we need to learn from their example and join them. Wish I could have been there. Kudos to them! Ramen.

It may be the case that the beer they received from the volcano would be stale upon their lips, and the strippers from the factory may not be fully pleasing to their eyes. Also, to Elise:

I have to admit, although I felt somewhat estranged from Pastafarianism of late, after seeing how this often turns from gentle satire into downright hatred, hearing about this has reaffirmed my faith in the divine providence of His Noodly Appendage.

I hope it gets published. Re: Atheists read religious texts for charity Your article published on September 22nd was very interesting. I applaud the courage of atheists for publicly reading religious texts for such a laudable cause as Doctors Without Borders. A few points are in need of clarification, however. Erin Rowley's comment that the Flying Spaghetti Monster is a deity created by Kansas author Bobby Henderson in 2005 to protest the teaching of intelligent design in public schools is not correct. The Flying Spaghetti Monster, creator of the universe, has existed for all time. Bobby Henderson, our beloved Prophet, is not the “inventor” or “creator” of the FSM. It is his writings that brought the FSM to the attention of the public through a letter to the Kansas School Board and the Gospel of The Flying Spaghetti Monster, our sacred text. Prophet Bobby also established the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster to further the understanding of our Master the FSM. Pastafarians are dedicated to incorporating the teaching of our version of the Creation in all science classes that also teach the theory of so-called “intelligent design.” Those interested in learning more about our Pastafarianins will find useful resources at the website of the CoFSM at www.venganza.org.
