I especially enjoy the official statement of FSM:

"With millions, if not thousands, of devout worshipers, the Church of the FSM is widely considered a legitimate religion, even by its opponents – mostly fundamentalist Christians, who have accepted that our God has larger balls than theirs."

That's some funny stuff right there. All silliness aside, they do a great job at using satire to point out common logical fallacies in many organized religions.

Some churches get money for selling indulgences. I think I'll set up a stand in the narthex of your church and sell sheets of genuine tin foil, so the true believers can make their own head covering as their conscience dictates. The rolls will be blessed by a member of the local clergy of metallurgy, approved by no less than a Bishop of Bauxite... and shall be of the size approved for such holy headwear in Machinery's Handbook.

(Note - the Reynolds Wrapturian sect providing genuine holy sheets of foil are in no way connected with the Orthodox Pastafarians or members of the Old Dutch Oven (iron caste) Reformed Church.)

Sorry, Alfredo upsets my stomach. Too rich for peasants like me.

I'm just wondering how much wearing a colander on your head does for making your point. It might be 'non condescending and non threatening' in manner, but it comes off as a ridiculous person instead of logical one. I applaud her guts for doing it, it is humorous, and it is an in-your-face gesture against religious lunacy, but making yourself appear as a lunatic to fight lunacy seems a bit looney... lol

Agree 90%. By posing as a member of a blatantly silly "religion", she is in effect mocking all religion as silly. I'm all for it, but it wouldn't surprise me if certain folks in the Middle East with no sense of humor put a price on her head.
