The Missouri State University Pastafarians took some time out of their schedules to spread the Word of the FSM in Springfield, Missouri.

Thanks very much to JT, Trotsky, Brenda and all of the Pastafarians present for doing this. The following description is in JT’s words.

In Springfield, there is a group of zealous christians that bring an array of witty signs downtown every weekend and hold them up trying to save the sinful, wayward souls of all the partiers.

Some of their clever passages of moral goodness include:

“The Party Ends in Hell”
“To Marry a Divorced Woman is Adultery”
“Homosexuality is an Abomination”
etc. etc. etc.

So…my pirate crew and myself decided appraise them to the existence of the one TRUE god:
The Flying Spaghetti Monster

Here I go…gonna give them a pamplet and tell them about the FSM.

They told me they didn’t want it and they refused to take it. I offered to take one of theirs in exchange. Again, they said ‘no’.
I pointed out that it was kind of shitty of them to expect me to be receptive to their message while being unwilling to extend me the same courtesy.

They gave me the stone-walled silence.

Can’t say I was shocked.

I decided to join them…help save some souls, y’know?

Ah, thanks for joining me, Trotsky.

saucy, saucy wenches. Pun intended.

We handed out 135 pamplets in under 30 minutes. Overall, the night was a HUGE success. People were very receptive to what we were doing. I hope some of them will start becoming more involved in many of the issues dominated by the religous right. The lady above felt compelled to take one of our pamplets over to the christians and explain that we make just as much sense…and she’s hot.

It’s important to have females. It attracts the attention of passers-by and pisses off the uptight people holding the signs across the street.

Another convert. Well-done Trotsky!

Kickin’ ass and takin’ names.
People continually told us that our corner of the intersection felt a great dealer cooler than the others…coincidence? Or prophesy?”

    Jesus did not die. In fact, according to
    .
    http://ww2.howmanyofme.com/search/
    .
    there are 6 of them living in the US right now!!! (I’ve heard you can also find a lot of those funny obscene names, too.)
    .
    PeopleSearch.com says there are over 100 Jesus Christs running around the US, but a search for a Jesus Christ born on Dec 25 (any year) did not turn up any matches. Anyway, I wonder what all these Jesus Christs do on Easter, and Christmas, or if any of them are carpenters, etc., etc., etc.
    .
    Also, there are over 100 Mary Christs, so someone must have gotten married to someone.

  6. 46 Cassie Aug 7th, 2007 at 8:15 pm

    I believe the way Jesus wants us to evangelize is to love people. With our emotions, with actions.

    We have sinned too, so I wouldn’t stand on a street corner condemning people

  7. 47 Neritoc Aug 30th, 2007 at 7:12 pm

    Nice to see a religion that if finally fun to be around I have truly been touched by his noodly apendage

    God who created man and gave us His Word (the Bible) will send His son Jesus with His mighty angels. In flaming fire Jesus will take “vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe(because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.” 2 Thessalonians 1:7
    This is why we preach Jesus’ teachings.

    Wilbur Wilbur Sep 3rd o7. I really need to share this gospel with you as commanded by FSM.I had a revelation of the second coming( or serving) of FSM, I was told to eat as much spagetti as I can so than he( or she or it, or whatever) is in me forever. Then I can ascend to heaven and enjoy the everlasting volcano of beer. FSM loves you so much and wants you to join me in heaven for the beer. Don’t forget to bring the peanuts

    Ah, so it is just bare naked mental terror that drives you and your fellow believers. I had thought so for a good while now.

    You guys are dumb and I really feel sorry for you that you have put all your faith into a bunch of noodles.

    i hate the stupid, “jesus died for your sins”remark, i mean, if you get reserructed anyway, there’s not much guts needed to die

  20. 60 Ayumi-chan Nov 18th, 2007 at 5:04 pm

    Ahhhh, this is the first time in my entire life I’ve felt almost sad that I live in an empty part of England where there are no evangelists (except the ones who come around to my fricking school and invade assemblies, RE lessons and Citezenship…GRRRR…maybe next time they come I can dress up as a pirate and explain Pastafarianism…but I’d probably get given detention for breaking the uniform rules, despite it being religious clothing…would they deny a Christian their crucifix? I think NOT!)
    .
    Off topic again…FSM, I’m bad at sticking to my point.
    .
    My point is…AWESOME! I wish I had an oppurtunity to do that!
    .
    That’s all I wanted to say.

Purchase the Gospel

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
