The Church of the Flying Sphagetti Monster

There really is one, and I am very pleased to say that my son is now an ordained Minister therein.

I'm not an extremely religious person myself, but I have always felt a certain calling toward spaghetti. And usually a second calling, too.

Reading some of the lit on the web (| Official Site of The Loose Canon) I find myself wondering just where all the pirate stuff ties in, but I'm okay with (Arrrgh!) pirates.

Pastafarians of the World, Unite! You have nothing to lose except your waistlines.

I understand a lovely young couple was recently married in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

I'm good with that.

I hope they have a beautiful baby girl together and name her Vermicelli. Or Parmesan.

Or...never mind.

And all of as sudden I really really want some sphagetti!

 

How to Become a Pastafarian

 

I'm never e ating pasta again!

 

This seems like a natural for me, since I play disc (Frisbee) golf every Sunday morning...

 

As long as one can laugh at God, one can be one with God.

 

I'd name my son "Al Dente."

 

I haven't been a member of a god eating religion for quite some time.

 

High Fives!!

 

I think these are retro Pastafarians. Pastafarians before Pastifarianism became cool.

 

Pirates are not sticky noodle cheese heads....

Kopimism made simple:[9]

• All knowledge to all;
• The pursuit of knowledge is sacred;
• The circulation of knowledge is sacred;
• The act of copying is sacred.
• up for discussion:

In the beginning there was the Bit. It was zero. The Bit activated and IT begot one. Between zero and one there was nothing.

Then the Bit got copied.

And then those bits got copied.

And those again, and again, ad infinitum.

Lo, and behold: The one bit begot a universe, by copying itself, with minor changes with each copy.

Therefore, it is our sacred duty to copy bits into similar but different bits, so the Great Work of the One Bit is done.

According to the Kopimist constitution:[10]

• Copying of information is ethically right;
• Dissemination of information is ethically right;
• Copymixing is a sacred kind of copying, more so than the perfect, digital copying, because it expands and enhances the existing wealth of information;
• Copying or remixing information communicated by another person is seen as an act of respect and a strong expression of acceptance and Kopimistic faith;
• The Internet is holy (Not generally accepted by churches run by the Maesters);
• Code is law.

 

Verily!
