The Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM) is the deity of the parody religion the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster or Pastafarianism. Created in 2005 by Oregon State physics graduate Bobby Henderson, it was originally intended as a satirical protest against the decision by the Kansas State Board of Education to permit the teaching of intelligent design as an alternative to evolution in public schools.
After Henderson published the letter on his website, it rapidly became an Internet phenomenon and a symbol for the case against teaching intelligent design in public schools as well as religion in general. Pastafarian beliefs—generally satires of creationism—are presented both on Henderson's website (where he is described as "prophet"), and in The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster (written by Henderson and published by Villiard Press in 2006). The central belief is that an invisible and undetectable Flying Spaghetti Monster created the universe. The Gospel includes a creation myth, set of commandments, and guide to evangelizing, and discusses history and lifestyle from a Pastafarian perspective.
Eccles 7:29 Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.
The prohibition for making graven images as gods is the second commandment next to having none other gods before Him.
Deut 5:7 Thou shalt have none other gods before me.
Deut 5:8 Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth:
Ex 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things, and introducing, created in 2005, the styrofoam made for thermal insulation and craft applications that resists moisture - the Flying Spaghetti Monster called Pasta Mama Mia.
Rom 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
Allegedly, It was created by an intelligent man as a protest against the teachings of intelligent design as an alternative to the intelligent theory of evolution including religion taught in public schools.
1 Cor 3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
1 Cor 3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them up to an evil mind, to do those things which are not right;
Rom 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Jer 3:25 We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us: for we have sinned against the LORD our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even unto this day, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God.
O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to thee, for our iniquities are increased over our head, and our trespass is grown up unto the heavens.
I am gladdened by His touch upon you with His Noodley Appendage.

Spaghetti, noodles and meat balls - a great menu indeed....
ReplyDeleteStart with the presumption that you have never seen or heard of the bible or christianity or any other religious dogma. Then work your way logically forward through your own observations of the world and the verifiable observations and deductions of others. See if you end up as a christian. I'm guessing you won't. The bible is a collection of stories. Some are original, others have been stolen from older mythologies and adapted to fit the christian mythology. The stories clearly include episodes that are not physically possible. If someone you know told you they saw their wife turned into salt, or that their uncle was 700 years old, or they just had a conversation with a burning bit of shrubbery, you'd have them committed. Why then would you accept the same stories as true, when they were written down hundreds of years after the people involved had all died, they have been edited for political expediency hundreds of times, and there is absolutely no corroborating evidence?
ReplyDeleteWhen you were young, you believed in the tooth fairy, the Easter bunny, and Santa Claus. You stopped believing in them when you noticed they were incompatible with the real world. How is it that you failed to notice this same incompatibility in regards to the myths of religion?
2 Cor 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
ReplyDeleteHeb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
Isa 34:16 Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.
2 Pet 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
Prov 8:8 All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
Prov 8:9 They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
the story of the flying Spaghetti Monster isn't true!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteit is rubbish!!! this can't be!! I'll pray that God will open the eyes from all this poor people who believe that the flying Spaghetti Monster is true!!! I think they shoult call a doctor!!!
How disrespectful ! Would you like me to say the same thing about your God ?
DeleteMay He touch you one day with his noodly appendage !
A true pastafarian
Acts 13:10 And said, O full of all subtilty, and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
DeleteMay the Lord rebuke thee.
Yeah, may the Lord, who loves you more than any thing in existance, beat the snot out of you for asking sincere questions with the brain HE supposedly gave you. And prove that he means it by quoting excerpts from a book on iron-age middle-eastern mythology
DeleteThis is God.
DeleteIs 46:10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
This is man.
Deut 18:22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic jewish zombie who was his own dad can save you from eternal damnation by the god who loves you, but can only save you if you drink his blood, eat his body, and telepathically accept him as your master so that he can remove an unseen evil force from your soul becuase a talking snake convinced a rib-woman to eat from a magical tree.
ReplyDelete^ that is why the only true* god is the FSM
2 Pet 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
DeleteJn 6:63 It is the spirit that reviveth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak to you, they are spirit, and they are life.
Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Mk 4:11 And he said to them, To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but to them that are without, all these things are done in parables:
Mk 4:12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.
Gods have been created by civilizations as long as man has been around. If you didn't understand something there was a God for it.
ReplyDeleteToday's religious groups have to stick their heads in the sand and ignore all the evidence that eliminates the need for the current major God still used today.
in reality the major faith holders out there today are only hurting themselves because they go through life walking on pins and needles so they don't offend their God and maintain their golden ticket to some mystical fairytail land after death
Not to mention all the wars and death that the many religious factions have caused. People are taught to be good and loving toward their fellow man but then turn around and kill him because he reads a different version of the same text.
A god that would let unborn children die, innocent helpless people get slaughtered like pigs, and thousands of people buried and burned alive by volcanic eruptions and other natural disasters is not the kind of god i want to spend an eternity with.

Delete1 Cor 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

Jn 8:47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
DeleteJn 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Repeating scripture only proves your ignorance.

ReplyDeleteMt 12:36 But I say to you, That for every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account in the day of judgment.
Why would you believe in a religion that looks to me like it was created by a woman who made a story up about immaculate conception because she didn't want her husband to leave her after she cheated on him? And please answer in your own words instead of quoting from stories of the past.
ReplyDeleteAnd why would you believe in a religion that looks like an invisible and undetectable Flying Spaghetti Monster that created allegedly the universe? It's indeed a Chef favorite dish. Spaghetti with meat balls dip in sticky sauce.....
DeleteActs 17:29 Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like to gold, or silver, or stone graven by art and man's device.
Eccles 7:29 Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.
No one actually believes in the Flying Spaghetti Monster. It is a parody god making fun of organized religion. Just shows how truly unintelligent you are.
ReplyDeleteKudos to the intelligent anonymous, making fun out of religion and God.

Prov 1:25 But ye have set at naught all my counsel, and rejected my reproof:

At least I have seen with my own eyes a dish of spaghetti and meatballs...
ReplyDeleteMore proof than your own God can claim...
And Let he with scripture use quotes...
But as along as she isnt a woman in church
1 Corinthians 14 34:35
34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

ReplyDeleteJn 7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God, or whether I speak from myself.
DeleteJn 7:18 He that speaketh from himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
Why so serious?
ReplyDeleteQuoting from the Torah are we?
ReplyDeleteWow! It's so exciting I wish to participate.
--------------------
Deuteronomy 22
King James Version (KJV)
20 But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel:
21 Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you.
28 If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
29 Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.
--------------------
TLDR: Stoning a bride who isn't a virgin; marrying a rapist. Seems logical to me.
You are not Israelites so don't bother justifying yourself with commandments given only to Israel not us Christians. Why?
DeleteActs 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Heb 8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
Heb 8:13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
I don't understand why the belief that this world and everything in it were created by God would make people so angry. Look at the order in which we are surrounded by. Look at nature and how creation works within itself. The only corruption is man and the sin that we bring. If you don't believe in it then don't. If you're right than we all go back into the ground that we came from. This includes your parents and kids (not a lot of hope in this life).
