I believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster because of the things described in the Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. If you consider yourself a believer why do you believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster?

    I love the Flying Spaghetti Monster, although I'm not quite convinced he was real.

      t.p stands for toilet paper, and in the great pastafarian tradition, no toilet paper should be used, as it was in the great days of the pirate

      we have found substitues

      well I'm assuming that's why they wrote the Gospel, with those soft absorbant pages

    Sure, why not? It makes no less sense than any other belief systems being pushed on the forum these days.

    Only for dinner! lol Bobby Henderson, a Physics Graduate of Oregon State University sent an open letter to the Kansas State board of education to protest their decision to require Intelligent Design be taught in science classes.In this he proposes that the “Pastafarianism” theory of evolution (FSM) be taught in schools alongside Science and Intelligent Design.

    The flying spaghetti monster argument, while trying to capitalize on a logical fallacy, is itself a logical fallacy, a straw man argument. The point of the argument is that no one can prove or disprove the existence of the being, thus, since no one can prove or disprove the existence of God, it is as ridiculous to believe in God as it is to believe in the flying spaghetti monster.


    Of course God is nothing like the spaghetti flying monster. There are no logical reasons to believe in such a being, just as there are no reasons to believe in a giant teapot orbiting the sun. However, there are reasons to believe in God and those reasons surround us; our world, personal experiences, friends and neighbors, even ourselves. I can see God in all these things. No, they do not prove God, but they do provide reasons for belief.

      Any argument for one can apply for the other. Any argument against can apply against the other.

    A philosophical question:
    Can the Flying Spaghetti Monster create a meatball too heavy for him to lift?

      A quantum physician once told me that, if A meatball believes in a FSM big enough to carry him,

      Then the FSM probably exists.

      its all about consciousness, dude.

      Uri: the FSM is omnipotent, yes indeed, even more omnipotent than the christian god.

      anyway this is not the point. The point is the decline in pirate kind,

      soon they will be extinct.

    A gosh... ya'll will get a kick out of this: in the ridiculously close Senate race between Al Franken and Norm Coleman here in Minnesota, many ballots are being counted and judged by hand... and apparently the Flying Spaghetti Monster showed up on one of the debated ballots... as reported by MPR... pretty sure the vote went for franken.

    All I have to do is look around to see proof of the FSM. Tomato sauce on the table cloth, dirty dishes in the sink...

    And for those who don't believe... What if you're wrong?

    All hail the FSM.

    The idea of FSM has the same synergy to that of Bertrand Russell's - Teapot orbiting Jupiter theory.

    Basically, brainwash enough people, and they'll believe anything you have to say. Such as; there is a bearded chap sitting up in the clouds, or there is a teapot flying around Jupiter... Honest.

    No, because there is one true god. It is written in the scriptures, the god who has revealed himself to me in my dreams. The god of the one true prophet, H.P. Lovecraft. This god is Cthulhu, the destroyer of worlds, and he shall eat the FSM just like he shall devour our souls.

    Cthulhu does not discriminate. He shall eat everyone's souls whether you've been good or naughty naughty. Whether you believed in him or not, he will still find a moistened crevice in the dark depths of his stomach for your immortal soul.

      But Cthulhu is powerless... until someone divides by zero and allows him (it?) to enter this universe and consume our souls.

      Cthulhu can divide by zero. You can't limit an omniscient and omnipotent being like Cthulhu with human logic.
