“My girlfriend and I are working on a short documentary about the FSM so we decided to take the good word of his noodly appendage to the streets of downtown Portland. We discovered an interesting dichotomy in the people that would stop at our table. Those who simply seemed interested in learning about just what the Flying Spaghetti Monster was would stop, look at the portrait, and listen to my brief speech on the FSM history and then take off with a nod or polite thank you. However, those who stopped and would really want to shoot the old bull with us would focus in on topics pretty tangential and unrelated to FSM (such as how the Illuminati does not wanting us to be out here preaching) and continue to talk to us about them for great lengths. It makes me have my doubts that the first Pentecost went as seamlessly as I’ve always been taught.”

    Now now Dee Dee Dee… Let us not forsake Luis, and further, let us not anger His Noodlyness with threats of thrashing of other with His Noodly Appendage. Instead, let us offer each other a pint of grog, throw our arms around each other, and sing sea-shantys till the wee hours of morn…

    And may the Sauce be with you!

    It’s about time we enter the educational system. Here’s a trail-blazing vita to consider:

    Doctor of Flying Spaghetti Monster Missions And Evangelisms Degree

    Course Syllabus

    Each FSM rector must reckoned to have communicated with the Flying Spaghetti Monster. He must be willing to pledge to his group of followers that he/she has been influenced by the voice and vision of the FSM. As a rector in The Church of FSM, you will allow the FSM to speak to your heart and counsel you about the stresses of life. The Flying Spaghetti Monster will replace all your negative emotions with HIS opposites.
    You will learn to teach your flock how to experience the FSM living within and learn to abide in the FSM to the extent that HE abides in our gut knowledge of HIM… especially after a nice pasta meal.
    Your message does overlap, somewhat, with existing neo-con religions by learning how to fulfill your financial destiny. You will immerse yourself in The Church Of Flying Spaghetti Monster’s Scripture and find support for the belief that the FSM delights in the prosperity of HIS children. You will learn amazing ways to teach your pastafarians that it is the FSM’s desire for them to lend and not borrow, to be the tail and not the head. Once they’re true believers that the FSM actually interfered with the Carbon-Dating process, you will be easily manage to teach them the nature and purpose of prophetic revelation and its proper function in the Body of FSM. You will soon become a questioning, visionary, psychic, and creative thinker who questions the status quo.
    Lastly, the FSM belief surpasses creationism and all ID viewpoints simply because it offers a concrete and reasonable explanation of how everything was created in a nanosecond…and recently! With his slick tentacles and all-knowing nature, he obstructed the attempt, via dim-witted human Carbon-Dating, to place things and events in an orderly sequence throughout time. FSM explains how, better than any other organized religion, that the earth was created in 6 days roughly only 6,000 years ago. It explains why the FSM bible is scientifically accurate in explaining why the earth isn’t billions of years old. True FSM believers realize that dinosaurs did not exist millions of years before man, even though thousands of heretic college textbooks say otherwise. The SFM’s tentacles also makes it easy to see why the mountains, oceans, the true location of the Red Sea crossing, and many other events are no older than 6,000 years. Yes, I cannot fathom teaching ID and creationism in America’s science classes without also teaching the Flying Spaghetti Monster theory…it seems to hold up better. I’m awaiting the second coming of the FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER!!!

    We FSM converts need to have a day of evangelizing set up at PSU. Our campus has been plagued by the Youth Ministeries Organization (I think that’s their un-noodly name). Other students deserve to see the sauce and be saved!

    Are there many Canadian Pastafarians? All of the locations I have heard of people posting here I haven’t really heard of/seen before, I’m just wondering if there are any Pastafarians/Pastafarian events in my region/Canada.

    Well, when’s the next big Pastafarian event here in Portland? I recently introduced this concept to a few friends and teachers and even got it a spot in the upcoming religion course at my school.

    I will be moving to Portland soon and have recently become familiar with pastafarians and their beliefs (although I have loved spaghetti for some time). For years, I had questions about the creation of the universe and the seeming conflict between science and my Christianity. The Flying Spaghetti Monster explains so much. I now accept the truth and understand our world’s beginnings with much more clarity. One problem, however… I’m still not sure I get the pirate thing. Aren’t pirates bad? If I become a Pastafarian, do I have to become a pirate too? I don’t like patches. And parrots? They’re just annoying. Oh, and one more thing… in the FSM church, is it okay to smoke pot? That will really make a difference as to whether I join or not.

    I would love a FSM event in Portland, especially since I live there (or at least close enough as to not make any difference). I hope it gets organized soon, and in the meantime I think I’ll set up a FSM after-school club at my high-school. May you be titillated by his tasty tentacles! RAmen!

    Would love to see a FSM evangelizing event at Portland State University’s park blocks. There are many Christian groups that come through and evangelize. It’s only fair! Equal time, equal representation.

    Been a Pastafarian for 2 years or so! Used to be atheist but now I know that there is a really real deity out there…the Flying Spaghetti Monster!

    Ok that’s it …. I see pictures of parties with wenches and guzzling of anointed beer and I must express jealousy. Maybe we need to start chapters in every city and take them over like little nancy boy ships run by men in wigs and women that deem themselves proper! I live in Phoenix and I know I’m not the only Pastafarian here.. we could be called the “Pastazona” chapter and Portland is cool because it’s the “Land o’ Port’s” arrghhh! So we gather in Arizona and show them that it’s not moist and that is why our noodles are hard!!! All in the name of Secularism, the FSM and Pastafarians everywhere!!!!!! oh and Henderbob can come too! Oh and also I love Portland !! Stupid sexy city!! :)

    The first pentecost probably went pretty good but then don’t forget about all the knock offs. See this is a fact of life, if you do something that makes people pay attention to you and gets some action going there will always be cheap imitators that swear they got the real thing. You could just cash in on the fa and make a little moola, pick up babes whatever, or you could just stick with the real thing but it takes some real talent to pick out the good fakes. Of course same goes for making a good fake, specially when it gets more complicated like U.S. mint money if you know what I mean. Local Boss

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
