Probably my favorite FSM pumpkin

Halloween is coming up in a few short weeks. Please send me photos of your FSM pumpkins, FSM costumes and any sightings of Pastafarian Missionaries or Saucy Wenches you come across.

The photo above and photos below are some highlights from past years.

Halloween Missionaries

We’re working hard at spreading the message of the Holy Flying Spaghetti Monster throughout Mexico and Latin America. You might know that the Virgin of Guadalupe is the holiest figure of the Mexican catholic religion – but things have changed. Now we know that the FSM is also present in one more of the many far away lands. Attached is an image of our findings. We hope you enjoy it!

Bendito sea el Monstruo de Spaghetti Volador! (blessed be the FSM).

One day i was taking a nice, long, hot bath. I laid down to rinse out my hair and happened to stare up at the ceiling and there He was!

I’m thinking of cleaning Him off with a papertowel then selling it on ebay.

Last month I was having a scuba diving holiday off Malaysian Borneo with some friends. One day, I had been shooting a video clip of a giant turtle, in the course of it I had been swimming upside down, and then I suddenly got the most intense experience! Right there in front of me, I witnessed His presence, his noodly appendages appearing clearer before my eyes then they had ever done before.

While visiting “Les Machines de l’Ile Nantes” in france I discovered a great shrine to The Flying Spaghetti Monster.

The construction of a vast noodly walkway in progress, and a huge pirate fish of their creation.

I thanked the FSM for extending his noodly appendage to me even when on holiday.

I was delighted to see this manifestation of His Noodleness in in the Tower of David adjacent to the Jaffa Gate in the Old City Walls of Jerusalem. Awesome, don’t you think?

As an athiest and a feminist, I have had a lot of trouble with your Church’s vision of “heaven”. ..really, a stripper factory?!?! As a herteosexual woman, I don’t find this vision of heaven very appealing. And I really don’t like beer at all. I’m more of a red wine gal. I also have had problems with Pastafarianism since my doctor told me I have to cut back on carbs. I admit, giving up pasta has me really stresses out, so much so that while cleaning my kitchen up today, I dropped a coffee filter FULL of wet ground on the floor. As I started to clean it up, His Nooldy Goodness touched me and gave me this vision:

In Heaven, I can eat all the pasta I want and still have the body of a stripper! I can run my “self” through the Stripper Factory system over and over again, changing my appearance by pushing the “reset button” before I go into it. I will have infinite costumes, hair and make-up changes and I will feel strong and vibrant enough to pole dance (something I can’t do now since I’m almost 60.) “He” also whispered into my ear that the beer in heaven tastes the way one wants it to taste…so the Beer Volcano is magical in that the beer sometimes tastes like a chocolate milk shake – or – a really nice Cabernet. It really solves all my theological problems.

When the vision faded, I awoke on the kitchen floor thinking I had had a stroke, but then, I saw the splattered coffee grounds (see attachment) and knew I had truely been blessed by “Him”.

While scouting for toys for my 8-month-old daughter, I noticed something. Something awesome. Something… divine? See the picture.

I take this as evidence that His Great Lordship wants us to procreate, bearing bazillions of children who will learn of Him and worship Him…and to show that he has a nurturing side (Ave Marinara). (Plus, this attaches to a car seat! A sure sign he wants the children to be traveled, well-learned, and stimulated.)

While perusing images from NASA’s Astronomy picture of the day site I found photographic evidence of his noodley goodness on Mars. Here is the original link – just ignore what the saps at NASA claim it is!

I was at work, contemplating on which deity to give my faith (since I have to believe in something, right). Being an atheist was boring. Wouldn’t ya know it, the sky-god lovers were right about something. Anyway, I was looking for a sign, and POOF (splat), there was his noodley goodness, manifest in the palm of my hand. Thank you, our loving dish, for touching me in such noodley loving fashion. I’ll no longer walk around lost in the sauce.

Our hearts were touched by his noodley appendage at Balsam Lake, Ontario.

I was blessed by His Noodly Appendage at the fish and chips shop just down the road from my street, consisting of repeated appearances of the divine Pirate Fish symbol all over the place!

I was so excited to find some local pastafarian displays that I couldn’t help but go down there with my sister and take some photos of the miraculous discovery.

This occured shortly after I was employed at a new job… in an Italian restaurant.

RAmen!

While watching my itunes visualiser, I noticed His Noodliness continually forming and re-forming. Perhaps it had something to do with what I was listening to…

As a biologist, I have been following alternative theories to evolution for many years. While lacking certain elements of testability and reason, I admit I have always found your theory of a Flying Spaghetti Monster that created the world to have a certain credibility that is lacking from other alternative theories to evolution.

I recently went into Anza Borrego State Park for 40 days to reflect on the value of logic in science. During my journey, I stumbled across a vision of a Flying Spaghetti Monster in the rocks (please see the attached image). In my shock, I failed to record the GPS coordinates of the vision; however, I would be happy to show you on a map roughly where the vision occurred in case your followers would like to go on a pilgrimage.

Consider me converted,

My company sells this noodle ball, which looks surprisingly a lot like the
monster!

I had just embarked on my 7 month trip of South /Central America and Europe and was wondering whether I had made the right choice. Then He appeared to me in the clouds above the Altiplano Lakes near San Pedro de Atacama in Chile, to tell me it was all going to be ok!

I also thought you might like to see my new car licence plates, which I purchased for my new car when I returned from my trip! Sorry the photography is so bad – the sun was shining the wrong way!

RAmen!

My fiancee and I recently traveled to Santorini, Greece and were delighted to see this lovely item in one of the local artisan shops in the town of Fira. The husband of the shop keeper is a carpenter and made everything in the store by himself, including this box. I’m glad to see that his noodley appendage has reached deep into the heart of the Aegean.
