Well I’ve been having some troubles making the game work, but that’s probably due to this broken-down relic of a computer I’m stuck with at work. Oh great FSM, take me up to heaven now so that I may partake of the glorious beer-vomiting volcanoes and girating strippers and stop wasting my time on far more base Earthly pursuits like cheesy flash games and arguing with meathead relgious-types on obscure message board threads. Seriously though…to each and every one of the people that have posted some negative, bashing, hateful or just plain ignorant statement in this thread: This is a battle of wits to which you’ve obviously arrived completely unarmed. Go wash your collective faces in the toilet. That being said, you warrant no further comment, discussion or even mere thought on my part, for when the end of days comes to pass, I will be fornicating with strippers under a shower of barley, malt & hops and floating in a tomato-sauce jacuzzi and you…..well, you’ll still be stupid, but dead too :)

I can understand where you are coming from as someone who does not believe in intelligent design. However, I ask you one thing: As a Christian (and with friends who are members of other such faiths) I have a reason for trying to convert other people. I am trying to save their soul and show them the love of Jesus. You do not believe that God is real, I accept this. My question to you is; what reason do you, as an atheist, have for attempting to convince others of your “religion”?

@ Aiden – because anything which attempts to encourage ignorance and discourage people thinking for themselves lessens the whole human race. This is why, over most of the last couple of hundred years, there has been an international move towards seeing education for everyone as one of the fundamental and best ways to create a society that works now and will hopefully improve in the future.
.
I don’t care what somebody chooses to believe in private but when their beliefs impact on the rest of their society by causing them to tell people that there is only one true way and they’d better not question it or else, what they are creating is not salvation but stagnation. The best thing you can do for any child or adult is to teach them to think. Then, if the beliefs you feel are so important appear to be correct, they will have reached their own understanding of them, and be able to explain why they have CHOSEN to follow that system. Subscribing to a particular religious system or deciding to follow no religion should be a choice everyone makes on their own behalf once they are demonstrably competant to consider the reasons for that choice.
.
The vast majority of religions and religious followers try to ensure the continuation of their particular variety of faith by catching people when young and indoctrinating them not to question. This is incredibly dangerous for society overall.
.
Most atheists try not to convert to atheism but to convert to thinking, something which can end up producing the same result but that is not the initial aim. Our concern is not people’s souls in some afterlife but the actual lives of our and future generations.
.
And just to respond to your second point, if you really want articulate comments, you tend to find them in response to the various hate-mails that come in, or the news reports provided by the prophet. I suggest once you’ve returned here to see if you got an answer to your question (from context, I’m assuming you’ll be back), you might like to browse some of the more recent threads.

Jennyanydots,
Thank you for at least giving credence enough to my objections to answer them in an articulate way. However, I would like to say (and it is my fault for not expressing this earlier) that it is not atheism that I object to. Obviously I am worried for the people who do not believe in God and I hold to my belief that Jesus it the one way for heaven, but God allows for free thought and dissent. I except this; it is one’s unalienable right to hold to one’s own beliefs. My objection is people, very much like the makers of this site, that take a sincere belief system (i.e. Islam, Christianity, Judaism) and turn it into a farce. True, there are many Christians, Muslims, Jews, and members of other religions who do not take into account scientific evidence relating to their beliefs. But many of us who do believe in a God or gods do, and it is extremely offensive to see those beliefs (which are oftentimes the product of both thought and personal experience) mocked and ridiculed in such a way as to imply that they are ridiculous. (which, if any reading this site would like to know, there is credible scientific evidence to the existence of God, just as there is evidence against it) I can understand the objection to the teaching of ID in schools. Coming from my standpoint I would feel the same if my children were forced to attend a class teaching evolution. That being said, there are several options. One: don’t take the class. Simple enough, if you think about it. Two: Ask the members of the school board to offer alternative classes showing alternative trains of thought, but do so without the mocking of real faiths. If the school board refuses to do so it would be relatively easy to build a case and take it to court. Three: Open up your own venue for teaching others about your beliefs (once again, however, it would be much more beneficial to do so in a way that isn’t offensive to people of faith). Creating websites like the Church of FSM does not inspire those with beliefs to think. By insulting them, you in fact are achieving the opposite affect in that these people will not take you seriously or give acknowledgement to your thoughts.
As for your belief that religion drags down collective thinking by ignoring evidence I cannot deny that there are certain people who do in fact foul the name of their faith and the people that adhere to it. And yes, there have been fights because of religion. But I will ask you two questions: How many hospitals, governments (including our own; “In God We Trust”), charities, and other organizations dedicated to the improvement of mankind have been founded because of a belief in God? And likewise, how many tyrants and other men of evil have been stopped because a major religion took offense to them(Antiochus Epiphanes of the Hellenistic Seleucid Empire, the Catholic Church of the Middle Ages, etc)?
In short, it is not religion that creates evil acts committed by evil people; it is how people choose to interpret that religion. I end this (admittedly lengthy) post with a verse quoted millions of times in the history of the world; a verse that poignantly summarizes the faith I have. “For God so loved the world that He gaveth His only Son, so that whosoever shall believeth in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”

@ Aiden
.
Apologies that this is going to be quite a short response to your comments, but I probably ought to do some work today. As with you, it is not religion per se that I object to, but the recent rise in religious fundamentalism. That, in itself, has been what has prompted me to become more actively involved in opposing some of the more dangerous aspects. I have a number of strongly religious friends and we are all able to respect each other’s position. As you say, “I except this; it is one’s unalienable right to hold to one’s own beliefs” – as long as they remain one’s own beliefs and have no impact on anyone else who does not share those. Whether that impact arises in attempting to convert, attempting to teach ID as science, or attempting to kill followers of another, or no, religion. Personal faith then becomes a matter of public concern. For many years, religion as an overall concept (i.e. all religions, not just one specifically) have been largely unopposed in their efforts to impact on others – faith has been treated as of benefit in it’s own right, and it has been not the done thing to challenge this. People who did not share a particular belief, or had no belief, have been subject to the same treatment you now complain is being doled out to the faithfull.
.
On the teaching of evolultion, the whole point of this is that ID is not science. If you choose to remove your kids from science lessons where evolution is taught then you might as well remove them from all biology classes entirely – without an understanding of that foundation, how can they possibly pass any exam in life sciences. Alternative theories do not belong in science, but could be taught in other subjects. The aim is not so much to mock other faiths but to indicate that every argument that can be made by proponents of ID to suggest it be taught as science, applies equally to FSM. If you see this as mockery, it is perhaps time to reconsider your attachment to ID as science – teach it in church, teach it in philosophy or religion and we wouldn’t be arguing.
.
And on your final point, how many of those institutions could not have been founded as easily by someone of no religion? And how many other tyrants, or even the same ones, and regimes have made use of the religions of their subjects to maintain control? Not even particularly despotic regimes either, always. Macchievelli advised rulers that even if they were not themselves particularly religious, it was good politics to lead their subjects to believe that they were faithful, because it prevented anyone wondering why they might have been appointed by god to rule. The Church of England was one of the key ways the social structure of Victorian Britain was maintained – in an idea that had continued through from the medieval period, everyone had been assigned their place by god and shouldn’t question it – the concept probably reached it’s zenith in the Victorian era, but you only have to look at e.g. the Peasants Revolt to see that it had been quite constant.

@Aidan Clevinger-
You claim to have scientific proof of god, I was wondering what this proof is?
Also, why should you care about the ‘souls’ of others? This stressed importance just seems like a recruitment exercise, and not very nice one ether.
Now is an answer to your points. This isn’t a protest to teaching ID it’s a protest to teaching ID in a science class when there is no evidence supporting it (evidence provided by the Christian right have been disproved).
It has no place in a science class room at all. When I was a boy we had RE which taught us about the beliefs of all cultures. Including ID here is fine, as it’s not being presented as fact.
As for respect for religion? Well I’ll pick on yours as we are most often assailed by angry Christians, plus it is something you are familiar with.
That book you faith is based on is full of inconsistency’s, contradictions to it self and contradictions to established fact. By claiming it is right not only do you demonstrate a lack of understanding, but that you are wilfully turning you back on the facts. If you would like examples I would be more than happy to oblige.
Now I am going to pre-empt something you may not even say, I do this because I’ve herd it said so many times before that I expect it. It’s the whole “I don’t have to believe everything in the bible to be a Christian” argument and falls on its face every time. If you don’t believe parts of the bible, why believe any of it? And who gets to pick and choose which bits?
Religion is a horrible mockery against humanity that seeks to make all our achievements those of an omnipotent sadist. Wile anything bad we do is our own fault.
I’ll finish with three quotes that sums this up quite well.
.
“We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes” – Gene Roddenberry
.
“With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.” – Steven Weinberg
.
“Religion has actually convinced people that there’s an invisible man — living in the sky — who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever ’til the end of time! ..But He loves you.” – George Carlin

@ Pluto – thanks for this, I was hoping someone else would find this one if I bumped it back to recent comments
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

I can understand where you are coming from as someone who does not believe in intelligent design. However, I ask you one thing: As a Christian (and with friends who are members of other such faiths) I have a reason for trying to convert other people. I am trying to save their soul and show them the love of Jesus. You do not believe that God is real, I accept this. My question to you is; what reason do you, as an atheist, have for attempting to convince others of your “religion”?

I will add to Messrs. Jeremy and Alex that calling people “little fucks” is an incredibly articulate and convincing way to express your opinions. Oh the scholars “Pastafarianism” has produced.

@ Aiden – because anything which attempts to encourage ignorance and discourage people thinking for themselves lessens the whole human race. This is why, over most of the last couple of hundred years, there has been an international move towards seeing education for everyone as one of the fundamental and best ways to create a society that works now and will hopefully improve in the future.
.
I don’t care what somebody chooses to believe in private but when their beliefs impact on the rest of their society by causing them to tell people that there is only one true way and they’d better not question it or else, what they are creating is not salvation but stagnation. The best thing you can do for any child or adult is to teach them to think. Then, if the beliefs you feel are so important appear to be correct, they will have reached their own understanding of them, and be able to explain why they have CHOSEN to follow that system. Subscribing to a particular religious system or deciding to follow no religion should be a choice everyone makes on their own behalf once they are demonstrably competant to consider the reasons for that choice.
.
The vast majority of religions and religious followers try to ensure the continuation of their particular variety of faith by catching people when young and indoctrinating them not to question. This is incredibly dangerous for society overall.
.
Most atheists try not to convert to atheism but to convert to thinking, something which can end up producing the same result but that is not the initial aim. Our concern is not people’s souls in some afterlife but the actual lives of our and future generations.
.
And just to respond to your second point, if you really want articulate comments, you tend to find them in response to the various hate-mails that come in, or the news reports provided by the prophet. I suggest once you’ve returned here to see if you got an answer to your question (from context, I’m assuming you’ll be back), you might like to browse some of the more recent threads.

For all of you wanting to hear the music – here it is:
http://www.plasmicstudio.com/fsm_song_plasmic_studio.mp3.zip
I am the sole author of the FSM game and its music, so I’m putting it up here free for you all. You can even remix it, use it in videos, etc. – have fun. If you’re using it somewhere public, please credit Plasmic Studio, my design firm. Spread it around, as you spread the word of your holy pasta entity.
FYI – I’ve loop it four times, just so it’s not too short. Enjoy.

Yay, I can finally listen to the FSM music whenever I like. Thank you mister Spatucci!
Incidentally, I’ve found myself adding Noodly Appendage-themed lyrics to it. Probably a good thing, really. Not long before it’s sung in the Pirate Ship church with all the other hymns!

Jennyanydots,
Thank you for at least giving credence enough to my objections to answer them in an articulate way. However, I would like to say (and it is my fault for not expressing this earlier) that it is not atheism that I object to. Obviously I am worried for the people who do not believe in God and I hold to my belief that Jesus it the one way for heaven, but God allows for free thought and dissent. I except this; it is one’s unalienable right to hold to one’s own beliefs. My objection is people, very much like the makers of this site, that take a sincere belief system (i.e. Islam, Christianity, Judaism) and turn it into a farce. True, there are many Christians, Muslims, Jews, and members of other religions who do not take into account scientific evidence relating to their beliefs. But many of us who do believe in a God or gods do, and it is extremely offensive to see those beliefs (which are oftentimes the product of both thought and personal experience) mocked and ridiculed in such a way as to imply that they are ridiculous. (which, if any reading this site would like to know, there is credible scientific evidence to the existence of God, just as there is evidence against it) I can understand the objection to the teaching of ID in schools. Coming from my standpoint I would feel the same if my children were forced to attend a class teaching evolution. That being said, there are several options. One: don’t take the class. Simple enough, if you think about it. Two: Ask the members of the school board to offer alternative classes showing alternative trains of thought, but do so without the mocking of real faiths. If the school board refuses to do so it would be relatively easy to build a case and take it to court. Three: Open up your own venue for teaching others about your beliefs (once again, however, it would be much more beneficial to do so in a way that isn’t offensive to people of faith). Creating websites like the Church of FSM does not inspire those with beliefs to think. By insulting them, you in fact are achieving the opposite affect in that these people will not take you seriously or give acknowledgement to your thoughts.
As for your belief that religion drags down collective thinking by ignoring evidence I cannot deny that there are certain people who do in fact foul the name of their faith and the people that adhere to it. And yes, there have been fights because of religion. But I will ask you two questions: How many hospitals, governments (including our own; “In God We Trust”), charities, and other organizations dedicated to the improvement of mankind have been founded because of a belief in God? And likewise, how many tyrants and other men of evil have been stopped because a major religion took offense to them(Antiochus Epiphanes of the Hellenistic Seleucid Empire, the Catholic Church of the Middle Ages, etc)?
In short, it is not religion that creates evil acts committed by evil people; it is how people choose to interpret that religion. I end this (admittedly lengthy) post with a verse quoted millions of times in the history of the world; a verse that poignantly summarizes the faith I have. “For God so loved the world that He gaveth His only Son, so that whosoever shall believeth in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”

The Flying Spaghetti monster IS real. I know this because I have faith in his existence. So-called “real” religions like the above-mentioned Christianity, Judaism and Islam are the true insult. I hope that one day you will see the truth and join the ranks of the awesome.

@ Aiden

Apologies that this is going to be quite a short response to your comments, but I probably ought to do some work today. As with you, it is not religion per se that I object to, but the recent rise in religious fundamentalism. That, in itself, has been what has prompted me to become more actively involved in opposing some of the more dangerous aspects. I have a number of strongly religious friends and we are all able to respect each other’s position. As you say, “I except this; it is one’s unalienable right to hold to one’s own beliefs” – as long as they remain one’s own beliefs and have no impact on anyone else who does not share those. Whether that impact arises in attempting to convert, attempting to teach ID as science, or attempting to kill followers of another, or no, religion. Personal faith then becomes a matter of public concern. For many years, religion as an overall concept (i.e. all religions, not just one specifically) have been largely unopposed in their efforts to impact on others – faith has been treated as of benefit in it’s own right, and it has been not the done thing to challenge this. People who did not share a particular belief, or had no belief, have been subject to the same treatment you now complain is being doled out to the faithfull.
.
On the teaching of evolultion, the whole point of this is that ID is not science. If you choose to remove your kids from science lessons where evolution is taught then you might as well remove them from all biology classes entirely – without an understanding of that foundation, how can they possibly pass any exam in life sciences. Alternative theories do not belong in science, but could be taught in other subjects. The aim is not so much to mock other faiths but to indicate that every argument that can be made by proponents of ID to suggest it be taught as science, applies equally to FSM. If you see this as mockery, it is perhaps time to reconsider your attachment to ID as science – teach it in church, teach it in philosophy or religion and we wouldn’t be arguing.
.
And on your final point, how many of those institutions could not have been founded as easily by someone of no religion? And how many other tyrants, or even the same ones, and regimes have made use of the religions of their subjects to maintain control? Not even particularly despotic regimes either, always. Macchievelli advised rulers that even if they were not themselves particularly religious, it was good politics to lead their subjects to believe that they were faithful, because it prevented anyone wondering why they might have been appointed by god to rule. The Church of England was one of the key ways the social structure of Victorian Britain was maintained – in an idea that had continued through from the medieval period, everyone had been assigned their place by god and shouldn’t question it – the concept probably reached it’s zenith in the Victorian era, but you only have to look at e.g. the Peasants Revolt to see that it had been quite constant.

@Aidan Clevinger-
You claim to have scientific proof of god, I was wondering what this proof is?
Also, why should you care about the ‘souls’ of others? This stressed importance just seems like a recruitment exercise, and not very nice one ether.
Now is an answer to your points. This isn’t a protest to teaching ID it’s a protest to teaching ID in a science class when there is no evidence supporting it (evidence provided by the Christian right have been disproved).
It has no place in a science class room at all. When I was a boy we had RE which taught us about the beliefs of all cultures. Including ID here is fine, as it’s not being presented as fact.
As for respect for religion? Well I’ll pick on yours as we are most often assailed by angry Christians, plus it is something you are familiar with.
That book you faith is based on is full of inconsistency’s, contradictions to it self and contradictions to established fact. By claiming it is right not only do you demonstrate a lack of understanding, but that you are wilfully turning you back on the facts. If you would like examples I would be more than happy to oblige.
Now I am going to pre-empt something you may not even say, I do this because I’ve herd it said so many times before that I expect it. It’s the whole “I don’t have to believe everything in the bible to be a Christian” argument and falls on its face every time. If you don’t believe parts of the bible, why believe any of it? And who gets to pick and choose which bits?
Religion is a horrible mockery against humanity that seeks to make all our achievements those of an omnipotent sadist. Wile anything bad we do is our own fault.
I’ll finish with three quotes that sums this up quite well.
.
“We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes” – Gene Roddenberry
.
“With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.” – Steven Weinberg
.
“Religion has actually convinced people that there’s an invisible man — living in the sky — who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever ’til the end of time! ..But He loves you.” – George Carlin
