FSM got me off work

So I was having a terrible day at work, more for personal reasons than the job itself, but I was, when the boss walks in and ask: “Would you mind finnishing early, I could do with getting off and would like to lock up”. I’m sure you’ll agree this does not even qualify as a question. Anyway, feeling alot happier I headed home and when I got back turned to open my car door and get out; when I spotted a smudge on my window that nothing could have possibly prepared me for. I believe it obvious that not only is this undeniable proof of the Flying spaghetti monsters existance, but also that he came to me this afternoon and through divine intervention, aided me in my time of need.

My apologies for the low quality of the photograph I took, however I had only a camera phone to hand, and did not believe his noodelyness would wish to linger too long as I’m sure he is a very busy deity. Anyway, It is my hope that through this sighting, at least a few more of his children who are still ignorant of his being are able to see the truth, and they themselves come to believe.

Yours in all good faith and meatballs

FSM on Futurama

Thanks to Pastafarian Ricardo for spotting this FSM sighting in the opening credits of the Futurama movie Beyond the Wild Green Yonder. Here’s a video:

Retarded. Suck it, Fox.

Anyway…

Some of us suspected there were Pastafarians at the Futurama camp after the release of Beast with a Billion Backs. Pastafarian Piscu makes the argument better than I can:

fsmbeast3.jpgBender, the Pirate

Warning – Spoilers:

First, consider this: the most popular character in Futurama is surely Bender. So, it is reasonable to state that, if the writers and creators of Futurama want to express some of their beliefs, they will clearly do it via the robot itself.

About Bender, we already know that he is a great beer drinker and uses to indulge himself with “hookerbots”, which are the robotic version of strippers. These are obviosly references to our Paradise, its beer volcano and strippers factory.

But in The Beast with a Billion Backs, Bender’s faith is made much more clear. In fact, near the end of the movie, we see him dressed like a pirate and leading a ship of pirate robots (screen cap attached)! This is undoubtedly the ultimate evidence of the fatc that even the Futurama people are part of our Church!

But there’s even more! The reason of Bender’s pirating is an attack to a planet-sized being from another universe, named Yivo, who has taken with him all of the people from our universe, making them fall in love with him. And the shape of Yivo is what is more surprising (screen cap attached). In fact, Yivo looks a lot like the FSM, but there are some differences: he is tentacled too, but has only ONE central meatball and ONE eye. So, he is probably a represantation of a fake god, who pretends to be His Noodleness but actually isn’t! Furthermore, when we see the “heaven” that stands on Yivo’s surface (screen cap attached), we can notice that it is very similar to the “classical” heaven, the one which people usually believe in.

So, what we are able to conclude is that Bender, who is a pirate (hence, a FSM follower) engages in a battle against a fake FSM (Yivo) to rescue humanity (he actually states, while fighting the monster, “I’m rescuing you!”) from that false paradise, and he finally succedes in his mission. This is an obvious metaphor of the struggle the FSM Church has to carry on to bring people to the true faith. Of course, we don’t intend to move war on any other religion, but the whole story is just representive of the great effort we have to put in our mission.

What do you guys think?

Biology book sighting

Scanning my biology book last week, my fellow Pastafarian Evan and i were struck with amazement as to what we saw. What the words described as a “repressor protein” we clearly recognized as His Noodliness. Once again, His noodly appendage is thrust into science to show the non-believers that He created everything that there is. I thought it strange that He touched us because Evan and i are from Green Bay, where last year that whole City Hall Christmas display debacle occurred and when someone tried to put up a likeness of Him next to the manger, our mayor publicly criticized our religion in the city newspaper.
