    If they are going to call it a joke, they at least investigate it enough to know exactly what the joke is.

    1: I meant news channel.
    2: As has been said, CNN has no right to call our religion a joke when Pastafarianism is just as sensical (more so, actually) as their own. Hypocrites.

    “Yes it’s a joke” but that’s not the point. The point is it’s indistinguishable from the “serious” ID theory, which leads one to the conclusion that perhaps ID is also a joke…

    Women may go topless in public, providing it is not being used as a business.
    .
    It is illegal for a woman to be on the street wearing “body hugging clothing.
    .
    Citizens may not greet each other by “putting one’s thumb to the nose and wiggling the fingers”.
    .
    A fine of $25 can be levied for flirting.
    .
    It is against the law to throw a ball at someone’s head for fun.
    .
    The penalty for jumping off a building is death.
    .
    New Yorkers cannot dissolve a marriage for irreconcilable differences, unless they both agree to it.
    .
    A person may not walk around on Sundays with an ice cream cone in his/her pocket.

    .While riding in an elevator, one must talk to no one, and fold his hands while looking toward the door.
    .
    Slippers are not to be worn after 10:00 P.
    .

    By far the best… “The penalty for jumping off a building is death.”

    I’ve seen these types before, he’s probably about 15 years old. Hasn’t really found out what his sexuality is and afraid to put the question to himself. It’s like religion. Did you know that 88% of people have never honestly questioned whether god actually exists? Fear for what the answer might be, probably, and not knowing how they could live with the answer if it turns out negative.
    Luckily we have. That’s how we discovered FSM.
    That’s why fundies and homophobia go well together. Both are based on fear to ask a question.

    @Aaron
    We all know that a negative times a negative equals a positive. Extrapolating this to stupidity, I hypothesize that a stupid person saying another person (let’s call that person Ivan) is stupid would mean that Ivan is actually smart. So thanks for supporting my hypothesis with the following data:
    1: Aaron is stupid.
    2: Aaron says Pastafarians are stupid.
    The above data can be coupled with the fact that Pastafarians are smart to lend support that my hypothesis is, at least, possibly true (though not proven) . The need for more evidence is clearly indicated.
    .
    I shall endeavor to take a “fundie poll” in order to increase my pool of data. Any fundie that says Pastafarians are not stupid is clearly smart enough to attempt to undermine my efforts, and thus will not qualify for my poll. I will then publish my results in a peer edited journal (probably one printed by the discovery institute because they are the only “scientists” that couldn’t find a flaw in my data taking method).

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
