Flying Spaghetti Monster

February 17th 2007 07:15
Some of you may be familiar with the Flying Spaghetti monster. The huge flying set of spaghetti and meatballs that created the Earth with it’s noodly appendages.
Perhaps nobody has had the will to explain it to you in person. This isn’t because they’re embarrassed of their faith. It’s just because it’s disrespectful to discuss what it means to be a Pastafarian unless you’re wearing full pirate regalia.

To take it down a notch, the Flying Spaghetti Monster is a piece of inspired silliness with a very serious message. The religion was formed as a reaction against the push for intelligent design to be taught in classrooms. The claim was made that if you give one religion time in a science lesson, you’d best give them all a chance. Even if they’re pasta.
Now the Flying Spaghetti Monster is something of a cultural phenomenon. A cult icon to millions of nerds, geeks and chefs.
Have faith.

I do see the irony of the 'flying spaghetti monster'. To me it reflects exactly what athiests think of religous types. It's a 'you're silly for believing what you do' kind of thing. Nothing wrong with expressing ones views that way.

I'm not so sure though, would there be anyone who seriously believes that? I mean there are people who believe the earth is flat (in all seriousness) so sorry for being overly cautious about this one
