While I had originally planned on attempting to critique your theory that a gigantic monster made of spaghetti created the world, I found that it wan’t so much a theory as a statement which you have made and which you have offered no evidence for except some vague reference to some book which you have not shown to actually exist. Since the only discernable tenet of FSMism is that an SM created the world, I would posit that FSMism would fall under the umbrella of ID and therefore does not need to receive special consideration apart from ID in the classroom. Christianity, Islam, Judaism, and FSMism all hold substantially similar viewpoints in their claim that a supernatural being was the first cause.

A better countervailing viewpoint to atheistic macroevolution’s claims of an eternal universe, abiogenesis, and decent through modification, would be that the universe, earth, and life simply popped into existence uncaused with no explanation. This would actually be a more logical inference based on overwhelming observable evidence such as the big bang theory, the cambrian explosion, Pasteur’s experiments which proved life does not spring from non-living matter and the biological fact that cross species reproduction cannot occur. Furthermore it would not posit a metaphysical explanation for existence as FSMism, Christianity, Judaism, and Islam do, nor would it be in conflict with the known laws of physics, mathematics, historical geology, and biology.

Of course the idea that our universe, earth, and life just popped into existence uncaused, seems as ignorant as believing a walking bread beast did it.

earlier tonight my amigos and I came across this icon on the back of a car of a crab with FSM initialed on it and I wondered what the hell it was. so I told my roomy about it and she googled it and we found this website. well know that I wasted 5 minutes of my life that I’ll never get back over some dumb cult thing with crabs. I am not enlightened and I think you are all douchefags who will believe anything. however it is your right to do so and I do agree you should be able to believe whatever it is you want to even if it’s extremely ridiculous. and I still think it’s lame and you’re all retarded. k thanks!

I came across your site through Answers in Genesis. I have a couple of comments to make.

Anyone can make up a religion these days. What you propose to people is just silly. Lets be real here.

What is your authority to say how things started? I ask because we must go back to some authority in which we can say such things. Also, how can you then get to Heaven? How are we saved? Why are we in the mess, that we are?

Jesus Christ died for us, so that we could have life. Can you say the same thing about your “God”?
2Pe 2:1
But false prophets arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. 1 These false teachers 2 will 3 infiltrate your midst 4 with destructive heresies, 5 even to the point of 6 denying the Master who bought them. As a result, they will bring 7 swift destruction on themselves.

2Pe 2:2
And many will follow their debauched lifestyles. 1 Because of these false teachers, 2 the way of truth will be slandered. 3

2Pe 2:19
Although these false teachers promise 1 such people 2 freedom, they themselves are enslaved to 3 immorality. 4 For whatever a person succumbs to, to that he is enslaved. 5

7:13 “Enter through the narrow gate, because the gate is wide and the way is spacious that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 7:14 But the gate is narrow and the way is difficult that leads to life, and there are few who find it.

I just came across your website through digg.com. At first I was intrigued and happy that a group was standing up for teaching pure science in schools. However after reading what FSM was supposedly about and then reading many of these posts, I see FSM is no better than the religions you are bashing, your posters/members sit in high judgment over religious people, demeaning them for their beliefs. Now I am an actual scientist, with a B.S. in Physics and a M.S. in Physics, however I have spiritual/religious beliefs.

Here is my final point, stick to fighting the good fight to keep science in schools and make sure it is not replaced with absurd ID, I say this believing a God created the universe and let evolution run its course.

Stop bashing other people’s faiths and assuming they are ignorant because they have a faith, and stop making your atheism a religion onto itself.

You’re all blind and headed aon the wrong path – I’m not trying to drag you into satanism – it’s not what we do, but I’m just saying: OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES!!!!! THERE’S NO SUCH FUCKING THING AS THE SPAGHETTI MONSTER!!!!!

OK, I agree that this is a bunch of complete nonsense. All you people who actually think that a flying spaghetti monster created us are just confirmation that this world is soon coming to an end. I pray that someone around you will show you the Bible someday soon and that you turn to Jesus Christ our savior so God can have mercy on your souls, because if not, you’re all going to hell.

HMM….

This website (as the writers probably intended) has commenters with a wide range of views on life and “religion.” Some claim openmindedness, others bash Christianity for, well, anything.

Please do not consider it a heresy to your conglomerate that a Christian that believes in Intelligent Design is commenting on your site, but I have some things to say about us:

Christianity is not a just a way of thinking or living or a “religion.” We do not picture God as flying somewhere overhead, watching our every move, waiting to punish us. He does watch our every move, but He acts with justice and mercy, and most of all, agape (love).

He is not just something to “get us through” life, though he certianly does that. For many of us, He is WHY we get through life doing what we do, not just HOW. He is there when we need help, but that is not His purpose. However, our purpose in life is to worship Him (he needs no help). I suppose there is no way y’all can understand unless you’re on this side of the fence.

Those of you who bash Christianity by saying its fake are completely hypocritical by calling them closed minded. I can only imagine what radical Islam believers would say so lets not single out anybody. Live and let live instead of bashing one another why not accept everyone and do your own thing. There are radical conservatives in every religion. Also keep in mind if your a fact based person I would love to see these so called “fake” religions disproved.
