Pastafarianism
That's right! The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is finally out.
For those of you who don't know about the Flying Spaghetti Monster, let me fill you in a bit. You see with all of this Intelligent Design crap, this guy came up with a counter to it. Following all the rules of Intelligent Design , you could say that "God" is really just the Flying Spaghetti Montster who sneezed the world into exhistance. The rules of this religion are pretty good too. Every Friday is a holy day which requires you to party. And in the Flying Spaghetti Monster's heaven, their is a beer volcano.
Oh and all the proceeds of the book go to buying a pirate ship. You see, this is how you can explain Global Warming. As the number of pirates in the world has decreased, the temperature of the world has increased so basically, the guy who came up with it is asking people to become pirates for the Flying Spaghetti Monster. And then you can go sailing around in a pirate ship, in pirate garb, spreading the good news of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
You should check out the site. Just type in Flying Spaghetti Monster in Google. It's the first one to pop up. It's pretty funny. They get lots of hate mail from born-again-Christians and the like. They also get a lot of emails from lawyers offering to sue schools who teach Intelligent Design if they don't also recognize Pastafarianism as a legitamate religion. Funny stuff.
Anyway, Have you heard the good news today?

Hi Psyche,
Pray to the beer volcano, then come check my Q&A blog called "The Big Question" at http://bigquestion2day.blogspot.com . If you get time, come answer a few questions (I post a new one each day). It's cool to see all the answers from the diverse group of readers that visit.
Anyone who writes about the Flying Spaghetti Monster has to have interesting answers!!
Take care,
Sublime
who's that ^? anyway, cool on the flying pasta thingy, but i think it's a little mean to be saying to people that they're beliefs are as valid as spaghetti. which is true, but your religion is different than your dinner. just a thought. but i'm hungry now.
but beliefs are only seen as significant as long as people believe in them. so they're saying, if someone really believed in this spaghetti thing, then it would be just as valid as any other religion.
so i'm pretty sure i could go for a religion like this...
it makes just as much sense as anything else...
i thought you would like this religion, carolyn. and i'm not sure who sublime is, but they have an interesting blog.
hey carolyn, i think we should try and put your shrubs to work here too. i think they would add quite nicely.
indeed they would...
I would say this webpage is a perfect example of the behavoir I was talking about in my post. I do not believe in Intelligent Design but I accept that other people do and let it be at that.
I agree with Missy.
and I don't get the shrub comment, but me and Bono and Allyson and Jeremy are making a really awesome clay mation about a penguin getting eaten by a bush. We also just made a sweet stop action film.
hovis, the problem with any belief system is that it inherently comes with arrogance. christianity is no different from atheism in that regard. the flying spaghetti monster is simply another group of people thinking of a retaliation to a philosophy. if their belief system satisfies them and makes them happy, who are we to question it? neither group is without fault. i also will apologize for calling the intelligent design crap. i should have been a little more politically correct.
