A fairly new religion, Pastafarianism was created by prophet Robert Henderson after a battle with the evil creationists in the Education Board of Kansas in 2005.

Pastafarians believe in the one, true god. The Flying Spaghetti Monster [pictured below]

...And his holy book, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Which includes eight "I'd Really Rather You Didn'ts".

Pastafarians believe that the FSM created the Universe after a night of heavy drinking. Top scientists have concluded that Earth's flaws were due to the FSM being drunk. The FSM actually planted the 'evidence' for evolution to test Pastafarian's faith.

Heaven and hell have, good beer and stale bear, respectively.
Instead of saying 'Amen' like ordinary, ridiculous religions, Pastafarians say 'RAmen'.

Pirates are absolute divine beings and the original Pastafarians. Their image as thieves and outcasts is misinformation spread by Christian theologians in the Middle Ages and by Hare Krishna's. Pirates were in fact peace-loving explorers and spreaders of good will who distributed candy to small children, and modern pirates are in no way similar to the fun-loving buccaneers from history.

Pastafarians celebrate International Talk Like a Pirate Day on September 19. Ghost pirates are also believed to be responsible for all the mysterious lost ships and planes of the Bermuda Triangle.

In addition, top scientists from around the world have concluded, through years of extensive testing, that Globaling Warming, is in fact caused by the lack of Pirates. Notice the chart.

Besides, look at Somalia. They have the most pirates in the world, and also the smallest amount of carbon emissions.

Over the years, Pastafarianism has grown mainstream. Many churches and people throughout all corners of the globe have converted to Pastafarianism. Members include famous people such as Richard Dawkins, Barack Obama, Yakooza99k, and even Vince Schlomi.

One of our historical members, Leonardo da Vinci, painted a portrait which gained support from around Europe for the FSM. Pictured below is a copy of his famous portrat of the Flying Spaghetti Monster touching his finger.

This thread was made for a discussion of the Pastafarian religion.

there's already a topic about this


True but it was last posted in in March and I can't remember what is worse duplicate threads or zombie threads.

I think the FSM is a great way to show some of the more ridiculous parts of religion.

Though don;t forget Spagnosticism

Well, people need to believe something... It might be outrageous, but that's part of being human. This is just an example.

It might be outrageous


Excuse me, but what's more outrageous?

A monster made of pasta that can fly or the belief that a cosmic jew zombie who was his own father could take you to the clouds when you die if you telepathically eat his flesh and drink his blood and that people die and suffer because a woman made from the rib of a man made from dust was ate an apple from a tree of knowledge because a talking snake in a forbidden garden told her to.

Again, remind me which religion is ridiculous.

I agree that this is quite outrageous, but thats were faith comes in. Believing is one thing, but having faith in something is a whole new can of worms...

Everyone does know this is a parody religion. As far as I know no one actually seriously believes this. It was made to show how ridiculous the Kansas education board was in making inteligent design mandatory to teach. It is outrageous becuase it is a joke.

I have a question. Is this really real or is it just a joke like Pixie said.

Wow... I didn't think this was a real religion... I still don't think it is. The man was just trying to make a point, not start a whole new religion.

Wait. What's this thread's purpose? To debate the FSM, or to mock Christians?

FSM is not the one true god...the invisible pink unicorn is.
Death to the pastafarians!

Actually Flippin3500, that's cosmology and abiogenesis.

But.. y'know. 'A' for effort.

The difference between Flippin's picture and Firefly's is simple.

Both may be oversimplifications, but the description of Christianity is actually the truth, albeit with different words.

The description of atheism has nothing to do with atheism itself, as HD mentioned.

You can be atheist and think anything about the origins of life on the earth - even aliens.

Anyway, I proudly display my FSM sticker on my car. Satire is often more succinct than well-reasoned arguments.
