Dear RAmen
I hope you get to read this, I can’t be on-line every day so i just saw your entry.
Anyway, I was talking to my teacher about this when I first got the idea to have my speech about the FSM(right after i got to this page) and he told me I could have it about atheism. And one topic of my speech will be “parody religions” and my exemple will be the Flying Spaghetti Monster” but I’d really appreciate a little more information to make it sound a little more “serious”, you know!?Mike

Mike,
.
I think you can find all you need to know about FSM online. First, explore this site, especially the letter to the Kansas School Board by Bobby Henderson http://www.venganza.org/about/open-letter/ Look at the Wikipedia entries for “Flying Spaghetti Monster”, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_Spaghetti_Monster and “Eight I’d Really Rather You Didn’ts” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gospel_of_the_Flying_Spaghetti_Monster#The_Eight_.22I.27d_Really_Rather_You_Didn.27ts.22
.
Those three sources will tell you almost as much about FSM and Pastafarians as the Gospel will. By the way, RAmen is not my name. It is a Pastafarian practice to sometimes end discussions by combining “Amen” and “Ramen” (as in Ramen noodles). Good luck!

Mike,
What we really need are some FSM tracts to hand out with Halloween candy. The evangelicals will be handing out Jesus propaganda, we must fight back in the name of His Noodliness by presenting these young, malleable minds with the Truth!
Best,
D

Guys,
This website is so interesting. I came upon it when I mentioned to a classmate I was doing a persuasive speech on the topic of evolution vs. creationism. I LOVE IT!!! Much like Mike, I would LOVE LOVE LOVE more information about FSM. I think it is my newlyfound religion!

This has to be the worse so called “church” yet. This is just an excuse for people that are lazy as hell and feel like “worshipping” there own way. You obviously don’t take yourselves seriously…or is that another one of your spaghetti mosters “traits.” Can’t you see that you’re taking a real set of religions and just placing a few ideals of “noodly” shit in its [there] place?!?! My god…and if that sorry excuse for a god really is you “supreme being,” I’m just gonna let you know that I just shit out your “supreme being” last night after I went to Fazolli’s…..

But how can FSM be shit as it uses the same set of logic and beliefs that hold up Islam, Christianity and any of the other “supreme being” religions. By saying that this is shit you are effectively saying all them are shit too.
.
…Either that or you are not using logic and intelligence? So which is it? -

That has to be one of the most hypocritical things I’ve seen in ages. You believe that evangelicals are screwing up the minds of kids, yet you wish to do it yourself just to make fun of evangelicals? You want to ruin our children so you can act stupid and not make any valid point?

Yep, why not! Why should all the God Botherers have all the fun! At least we don’t have a corpse on an execution device as our symbol! FSM is a symbol that all the kiddies & adults can enjoy in an uplifting way!

“……Can’t you see that you’re taking a real set of religions…….”
Could you please explain the term “real set of religions” ?? At least you had the idea to use the term “set of….” . However I do believe that term is an oxymoron! Yet another one! -

“Davey lets face it if you believe in a supreme being you are probably not blessed with intelligence.”
Everything else aside, I take offense at this. I have seen the power of God in my life and the lives of the people around me. I know from experience that there is no such thing as coincidence. Even if you do not believe in God as such, if you will pay attention, you will see the synchronisity that runs our universe. Whether you believe that there is intelligence to it or not, there is an order to our universe that is undeniable.
To me, it is obviously clear that it is by intelligent design and not by happenstance. I have an IQ of well over 180. That’s called being “blessed with intelligence” in case you couldn’t otherwise tell. To completely ridicule someone else’s belief system and insult them for it is not only ignorant, but it’s also childish.
I see that the theory (note theory and not law) of evolution does have it’s points, but it is still full of holes. There are so many questions that evolution simply does not support. I don’t feel that I need to get into these right now, since I’m sure you’ve heard them before, but the fact of the matter is that it takes at least as much faith (if not more than) to believe in evolution than in creation. Evolution is in and of itself like a religion with its own religious hierarchy, symbols, and bigots. I’m not pointing any fingers here. I’m simply stating a fact.
I will also extend to you that we can all agree that the separation of church and state is a total and complete farce. On your end of it, you see the church trying to pry their way into the government and schools. On my end of it, I see the government trying it’s hardest to take the place of religion. I would like to see a true, clear and total split there that would not make a forum like this necessary. I don’t see that happening anytime soon, unfortunately.
In the meantime, I will pray for you and yours that you will at least learn respect and tolerance. In the best case scenario, you will learn the Truth, and the Truth will set you free. Until then, I’m sure that this message will earn me the brunt of your ridicule. It’s up to you, though. Will you prove me right or wrong? Sincerely, but not hatefully,Michael
