		<description>how can you look around at the world we live in and not realise that it must of been created by some kind of flying pasta monster, it is just simple logic. And also, what kind of lame person goes onto a religeous website just to tell everyone that the entire theory is stupid, grow some balls and fuck off.</description>

		<description>I think people are missing the most important issue here.  The FSM... is He bathed in a homemade marinara sauce, or a name brand?  Personally I couldn't worship a pasta that reeks of Newman's Own Sockarooni.  It is too spicy.</description>

		<description>I love how those in favor of the Spaghedeity write intelligent, well-thought-out responses to your letter, while the lone dissenter gives you a whopping 8 words.</description>

		<description>i find Mrs Kathy Martin to be a person who has yet to experience the true power of his noodlie appendage, there for i per pose that we send our most intelligent and enlightened member to debate the importance and existence of her god in comparison to OUR god i think Mrs Kathy Martin will quickly retract such a hypocritical and incorrect comment. Further more it is no where written that "it is an offense to mock god". Mrs Martin i regret to inform you that it is not an offense to do so, it is simply frowned upon by people who are way to up tight. Finally don't bother asking me to prove that FSM exist cause the simple fact is I CAN NOT but guess what you can not prove the existence of YAHWEH either and if you dare Google who Yahweh is the i think you will find your previous statement even more hippo critical as you do not even know the name of the god you are worshiping, now ain't that offensive??
have a good day</description>

		<description>It seems to me that the core problem is when one's personal beliefs, which are your own damn business start getting imposed on others. If you want to learn about creationism, go to your church, synagogue, mosque, temple where religion is taught. If you want to learn about evolution, go to your high school, college or university where science is taught. As the two things are incompatible, it makes the most sense to just seperate them. If you don't believe in one or the other, just smile and nod, when you hear about it and if you really want to press it, say that you don't believe in what you have just been told but RESPECT other views. What you believe is up to you and what other people believe is up to them, so long as you don't try to make people believe what you do, we can all live in relative harmony with other. It's when people try to tell others what to do that we get pissed off. And if you say: "What you believe is wrong, what I believe is right" isn't that basically insulting the other person's intelligence?</description>

		<description>Well, when you can prove to me that the FSM does not exist, I will stop believing in him. Untill then, I shall carry on in my beliefs ;)


“It is a serious offense to mock God

Insulting our religon, by calling it a mockery of your religon, is in turn mocking our God, therefore a serious insult  ^.^</description>

		<description>Oh man, I cant believe it took me so long to find out about FSM and IPU. They might have mentioned the school board allowing 'ID' in schools on one of the episodes of Penn and Teller's: Bullshit but I guess FSM came after they aired the show.

I should be working but this is too interesting to stop reading about. lol
I need edit my FB profile to reflect my belief in this religion. XD

		<description>Aaaah, Miss Kathy Martin, you mean it is a serious offence to mock YOUR god. And with such a possition you're undoubtedly saying OUR God doesn't exist, which is a mock to OUR God.

But of course that doesn't matter, because it's not YOUR God. 

Thank heavens the board of education has enlightened people like you deciding what goes into a science curriculum in such an unbiased fashion.</description>

		<description>Kathy Martin there is pretty intolerant. I'm Catholic, and it's taught that "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord, your God, in vain" yet many people each day do. Is that not mocking the judgement of our God? So when someone says the Flying Spaghetti is an insult to God, they should shut their hypocracy-filled mouths and think again.</description>

		<description>Actually, I find most any religion crazy! Why because religion has caused wars and hate. Christians, and Muslims being some of the worst haters. Don't believe me? Just look at the hate mail, so called Christians using four letter word your mother said never never to use. I could go on about this subject for a good while. Myself, I don't believe in a processed food product being a higher power either. I got a good laugh out of it.

No I am not an atheist either, I am Agnostic. Not a militant one! You can believe it what you want. But you really don't know, and I don't either. I guess if I was to become religious though I would rather be one who believes in reincarnation. Nature does not like to waste things, she recycles so I could see ones soul being done in the same manner.

One other last note to think about, a friend told me he thought of a higher being like a Clock maker. Builds the clock (meaning earth) sets life on it and moves on never to look upon it again. Goes off and builds a new clock...so on and so forth. Who is to say he is wrong...or anyone else for that matter. So for all those Christians out there that are going off on FSM believers you need to sit back and read one of your precious bible quotes: "Judge not, lest ye be judged!"</description>

"I'd really rather you didn't act like a sanctimonious holier-than-thou ass when describing my noodly goodness. If some people don't believe in me, that's okay. Really, I'm not that vain. Besides, this isn't about them so don't change the subject."

		<description>WOW -- I used to tell people that I practiced "Gailism", because I have faith in me, but this, THIS -- where has THIS been all of my empty, meaningless, hedonistic life?  Now I have something to worship -- something to BELIEVE in!!!  Thank you for opening my eyes to the saving grace of the FSM!!  I am now a pastafarian -- so, like, do I have to dunk my head in a pot of sauce, or what?  Hey -- you know -- this pastafarian thing should be easy for most Christian religions to convert to -- they already have tons of red wine!!!</description>
