matsherwood looking for the non-linear domain of infinite possibility
How I did it: I think a person's understanding of the universe is personal, no matter what that understanding is. It bothers me that some push their beliefs, and condemn those with different ones. I learned about FSM, a satirical "religion" invented as a response to the kansas school board considering teaching creationism. Since learning about the spaghetti monster, i have been increasingly more amused with the thought, and now it plays a rol… Read how I did it…

tangerine_now Still. Not. Editing.
if you replace all reference to ‘god’ in everyday conversation and web-posting into “FSM”, “the Monster”, “His Holiness the FSM” or similar.

The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, or Pastafarianism, is a satirical religious group which has grown out of a 2005 letter written to the Kansas state school board by a physics graduate named Bobby Henderson in protest of a decision by the board to mandate the teaching of intelligent design creationism alongside evolutionary theory in biology classes. The FSM is said to have created the universe, and he uses His Noodly Appendage to interfere with scientific data in order to confuse human understanding and test our faith. In addition, Pastafarians believe that correlation equals causation: because statistics show that the rise in global temperature and the number of pirates in existence are inversely proportional, then dwindling numbers of pirates must be causing the earth to warm, therefore pirates are considered to be holy beings. Group members frequently speak like pirates (or type in pirate dialect), and dress in pirate garb for gatherings.

This one has been touched by His his noodly appendage!
Hear the revelations!
“It has been privately revealed to professor Huxdane that an asteroid killed the dinosaurs”!

I’d like to put more people’s noodles to work and introduce them wonders of pastafarianism. It is such a delicious thing!
We need to up our evangelizing and fund raising so that we may build the world’s first voyaging pirate ship church of the FSM!
Ramen!
I’ve done it, i’m doing it, i’will do it, and it won’t stop.
after telling a few poeple about the truth of the Monster, after drawing icons of him on my wall cupboard (one door of my wall cupboard is painted with a special matter like black board in school so i can write with chalks on it), i found that my own mom, after i told her, is also spreading the gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. it’s like a second generation of gospel spreading.
so i can honestly judge that my goal can be put in the “i’ve done this” section even if it would never be done and if it is an everyday work…
so keep on spreading it fellows.
I highly recommend that you use this poster (I didn’t make it) as a quick cheat sheet to anyone who asks you questions about your True Religion. http://weefolk.awardspace.com/pastafarianposter.html
I joined A Pastafarian Soc in College! Totally forgot about it after a while though, thanks for reminding me.
