kissme: Erm, so basically you’re doing good things only because you fear the wrath of your imaginary friend, not because you believe in doing good stuff? Well, that’s not very noble, is it?
Oh, and:
THERE IS NO GOD! IT’S ONLY A FAIRY TALE AGAINST PEOPLES FEAR OF DEATH. IN ANCIENT TIMES GODS WERE ALSO USED TO EXPLAIN LIGHTNING, FLOODS, AND A WHOLE BUNCH OF OTHER THINGS, BUT WE HAVE GONE BEYOND THAT. THE ONLY REASON WHY RELIGION IS NOT OBSOLETE YET IS THAT THERE’S ENOUGH STUPID PEOPLE!!!
Kissme #541, you have provided a perfect example of why so many people find evangelical xians offensive. Intolerance, prejudice, inflexibility, insult, dogmatism, inaccuraciy, condemnation, advocating forced indoctrination – and all that in just three and a fraction sentences, while breaking your own religion’s rules of conduct, and advocating for unconstitutional practices. I am impressed.

You know, teaching fairy tales to children when they are “young and vulnerable” telling them it is the absolute truth and that if you don’t believe it you will burn in terrible flames, is quite a bad thing. All religions are influenced by the culture they were born in, which would explain why so many are so different. The more thing we get to know about life the less old superstition we believe (for example that thunder is created by Zeus when he is in a bad mood). Ignorance is the key to keep these old superstitions in place. Also religions are a way of controling by fear. They used it a lot in school: “If you don’t do your homework you will go to HEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLL! *Pulls a picture of hell out of his pocket*” I’m sorry but controlling people by fear is not a good thing to do, and if your god exists (which isn’t the case) he is a dictator filled with anger and hate (i mean come on, if he was really filled with love and forgiveness there would be no hell, no suffering etc.) God didn’t create the humans in his image, the humans created god in their image, like they do fr everything else… you know talking animals and such.
And besides Daqq is absolutely right, you should do good things just because it’s right, not because you’ll go somewhere horrible if you don’t. Most people i know who are EXTREMLY religious, are also very selfish and bad as human beings… that says a lot!
Also I would like to point not all Christians are like this. Infact I have some very nice Christian friends. The Christians that try to annoy us on our site are a minority.
Greeting and with Pasta and Sauce to all!
I just love this site and the intire FSM movement! I too have given up on god( notice the little g) but not the Goddess. I have given up on most of humanity but you people and this site give me just a little hope!!
I would love to start a campus group at my college University of Houston, is there any thing that should do like forms or something.
Can I just start my own congregation.
Can we have fetticini alfredo as a sacrament?
I think that this would be great fun!
Thanks for revealiing his noodlyness the Flying Spaghetti Monster!

Beleive it or not until 2-7-09 i was a Christian. But on that day iwas talking to my friend about religon and he said that he beleived in the FSM. I thought he was crazy. So i looked it up and i understood it and i knew it was for me. So GOD IS NOT REAL!!!!!! (my parents are christians. But i switched so except me)
I live in Algeria, a Moslem country in North Africa. I have always been a freethinker and a sworn atheist, therefore a pariah in this part of the world where religion is at the center of everything. I continue to be a freethinker but no longer an atheist: I am a pastafarian. I know it”ll be hard to spread the WORD where I happen to live, but I am ready to die a martyr. A question on my mind: where will I go/what become of me after such death? People of the so called ‘celestial’ religions would answer paradise or hell. What would my brothers and sisters in the new religion answer? May his Noodliness bless all. Pastafarians of the world, unite.
PS: I guess that pastafarianism is not a sexist religion like the above mmentioned ones
