i am concerned

I am concerned. This is a joke, right? i mean, people cannot seriously believe in a dinner option. I believe that this ‘pastafarian-ism’ started as a joke made by a lost soul who is against christianism. but reading this website, this has gone too far. i will not swear or mock your unique form of entertainment like others have, but please stop this madness. direct your anger away from christianism and into your own personal lives. Let us not poison the minds of the innocent people that use the internet. Thank you, and I shall be praying for you all.

    I agree with “Concerned Christian”. This madness must stop now. How can you promote a pasta god in the face of the obesity problem in the USA. You all need to be responsible which is why I suggest an Organic Wholewheat Pasta God.

    May his Organic Wholewheat Noodly appendage touch you all.

    I don’t think any pastafarians are protesting Christianity alone. In fact, we aren’t really protesting anything really… we just choose to believe in our Holy Noodlieness- the Flying Spaghetti Monster. It just happens to have drawn the attention of Christians more than anything else. It is they who are writing and bashing us. We pastafarians are on the defense. After all, you have come to our site- not the other way around. We really believe the world would be a better place if everyone read books such as the book of recipes. Could you imagine a world where everyone is too full to kill innocent children??? Or protest a man’s funeral when the reason he is dead is to apparently protect his fellow man (and then there’s that whole oil thing)???

    Thank you for not swearing; I’m mortified by the amount you’ve received back.

    “direct your anger away from christianism and into your own personal lives.” Well, no. I am angry with the way Christians insist on preaching their faith to children. ID in schools, schools run by churches – to me it’s simply brainwashing the next generation. As long as Christians target children I’ll target Christians

    “Let us not poison the minds of the innocent people that use the internet.” So, stating that the FSM is true is poisoning the innocent? How arrogant of you to assume you’re right and people deserve protection from us. The FSM has as much much hard evidence as the christian church and that’s the whole point. The internet is about free speech; keep your closed dogma for the pulpit.

    “direct your anger away from christianism and into your own personal lives”

    Very curious insight into christianity. They are not espousing controlling anger or getting rid of anger but rather harnessing it and pointing it inward at ones self.

    Such self loathing is certainly the source of their endless sin. Their endless sin must create more self loathing. What a vicious cycle. No wonder they are so violent and lacking of a moral compass.

    Hey. Here’s to all you Christians who keep bashing this fabulous joke (not religion, it’s a joke, people don’t seem to get that), listen to yourself. your religion tells us to weekly participate in cannibalism, eating the flesh and drinking the blood of the son of god. however, logically, the son of god cannot exist…

    Christianity tells us that God is male.

    Therefore, god has a penis.

    Christianity tells us that God is perfect.

    This reaffirms that he has a penis.

    Christianity tells us that God is unique.

    This tells us that God cannot use his penis for either reproduction or sexual release.

    Therefore, God cannot have impregnated the ‘Virgin’ Mary.

    Here’s something else.

    Since God impregnated Mary without consent, without telling her, and without any other type of permission, he is therefore a rapist.

    So.

    Let’s go over this. You worship a rapist and his illegitimate son, who cannot exist according to your religion, and one of your rituals is eating his flesh and drinking his blood, which seems to actually be a mixture of sugar, fermented grapes, and other ingredients.

    That sounds just as fucking impossible as a flying spaghetti monster.

    Get over yourselves, stupid people.

    What a coincidence. God’s comment #122 here and John Denver’s comment #119 under the “this Booby Dude needs to get a Live” thread are word-for-word identical.

    If you’re going to post comments here, have the decency to retain a consistent identity. I’ve posted quite a few comments, all under the same name, and when I screw up, I take the consequences. John Denver was in the movie “Oh God”, but he didn’t play the title role. That was George Burns. Do your homework and have some pride in your individuality. Some of the names chosen by the more serious posters here are downright profound. And some of the wenches are downright titillating, in both name and attitude (especially when they’re serious posters). *wiggles eyebrows*

    I’m just wondering if they send out something like this to every porn site they find, too….

    I think we should issue a challenge: if any of these uber-Christians can come up with an explanation as to why the Flying Spaghetti Monster does not exist that, at the same time, does not disprove their own deity, will settle it all. Oh, and “Our religion has been around longer” doesn’t count.

    After taking a short hiatus abroad and coming back and looking at the hate mail on this website, I can see things never seem to change. How sad.
    I remember in the 1980’s when a particularly potent form of cocain called crack was introduced in the US and women who smoked it had babies born addicted to the stuff. It was all the rage for social commentators to expound on what the national landscape would look like when these “crack babies” grew up and we had a nation with them as part of our social landscape.

    Well, I have news for anyone who so wonders, we do have a nation in which upwards of twenty percent of our citizens are addicted as children to a toxic drug and the consequences of that addiction bedevils the citizens of this nation without cessation. That drug is of course Fundamentalist Xtainity.
    Fundamentalist Xtainity is every bit as addictive as crack, promises physical and emotional ecstacy, makes its followers irrational when their source is threatened (ie their delusions about the nature of the universe), leads to violent impulses like the murder of gays , the bombing of abortion clinics, and the conduct of unnecessary wars such as the one in Iraq.
    Fundamentalist Xtainity has created a large, obnoxious group of people who have no respect for the rights of anyone but their fellow travellers, and it encourages the impoverishment of its believers, just like drug addiction, by fighting against quality science eductation.
    And just like the drug dealers, who are wealty and well dressed, you have a Pablo Escobar class–the televangelists, a cynical lot who chase hookers, boys, drugs, and cold, hard cash.

    Yes, we know the consequences of having a nation of crack babies, it’s called the Bush Administration which was elected largely thorough the support the Religious Right Fundamentalist Xain base. And we are all going to suffer the consequenes of it.

    Do you have any idea how much violence has been a direct cause of Christianity? Five million ‘witches’ killed, two crusades, the war in Iraq and countless racist and xenophobic actions; compare that to the number of people who die from choking on pasta or pasta-poisoning. Pastafarianism is a peace-loving religion, followed by a passive people. Nobody here is asking for your blood, we don’t even eat pork anyway. If you can disprove the existence of our many-appendaged lord then be our guest; if not then please do take your heresy some place else.

    Listen, the person who wrote this specific hate mail did not do this, but many others have. Simply because you have very strong belief in the literal translation of the bible (which i do not) does not mean you need to try simple and harsh means of converting others. it simply wont work. In fact, your harsh words are pushing away from Christianity those who are simply pastafarians because of joking and fun (no offense to those who are strict pastafarians, of course) your ranting and hate mailing wont do any good, i can guarantee that. Simply leave others to their beliefs, and for all you bible quoters, “they will know we are Christians by our love.” are you really Christians if you cannot love your neighbor, be he of another faith or not? Don’t just hate me, think about what i said.

    Did you know that they eat the flesh of their man god and drink his blood. How sick and revolting is that. At least our god was meant to be an entree. I think they fabricated this belief just to poke fun at how we devour the image of our god.

    Its not an attack on any religion I can assure you. Its merely a religion that was underground for a while, but when the super natural science of Intelligent Design came into light we found that we could have our own super natural science (or super science) taught along side the theory of evolution, and Intelligent Design. Its only fair that if one super science theory is taught that all should be. Our astrology friends are working hard to have their alternative theory taught with astronomy as well. Soon children will be able to learn all sides to all theories, such as flat earthism, intelligent falling (to counter balance that ludicrous “gravity” theory) etc…All thanks to the super science of intelligent design. We have no beef (or meatball) with your religion, we do however hope one day you will see the noodely light and accept His old world style pasta embrace.

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.
