Another Secret Religion "Pastafarian" I Just Heard Of by CeeFire(m): 6:24am On Dec 19, 2017 |
Good morning NairaLand. So a friend of mine told me about this religion, PASTAFARIANISM, which according to what I read, they serve the FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER. They wear spaghetti strainers to show their allegiance to the spaghetti monster. Below is a short note about them, their way of life and their belief. "The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, after having existed in secrecy for hundreds of years, came into the mainstream just a few years ago. 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. They believe that humans originated from pirates and Christianity is the reason pirates have and outcast and criminal image today due to misinformation. Their 8 commandments or as they say "I'D REALLY RATHER YOU DIDN'T" includes #1 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t act like a sanctimonious Holier-Than-Thou ass when describing my Noodly Goodness. If some people don’t believe in Me, that’s okay. Really, I’m not that vain. Besides, this isn’t about them so don’t change the subject. #2 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t use my existence as a means to oppress, subjugate, punish, eviscerate, and/or, you know...be mean to others. I don’t require sacrifices, and purity is for drinking water, not people. #3 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t judge people for the way they look, or how they dress, or the way they talk, or, well, just play nice, okay? Oh, and get this through your thick heads: Woman = person. Man = person. Samey-samey. One is not better than the other unless we’re talking about fashion and I’m sorry, but I gave that to women and some guys who know the difference between teal and fuchsia. #4 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t indulge in conduct that offends yourself, or your willing, consenting partner of legal age AND mental maturity. As for anyone who might object, I think the expression is "Go f*** yourself, unless they find that offensive in which case they can turn off the TV for once and go for a walk for a change." #5 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t challenge the bigoted, misogynist, hateful ideas of others on an empty stomach. Eat, then go after the bastards. #6 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t build multimillion-dollar churches/temples/mosques/shrines to my Noodly Goodness when the money could be better spent (Take your pick): 1. Ending poverty 2. Curing diseases 3. Living in peace, loving with passion, and lowering the cost of cable. I might be a Complex-Carbohydrate Omniscient Being, but I enjoy the simple things in life. I ought to know. I AM the Creator. #7 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t go around telling people I talk to you. You’re not that Interesting. Get over yourself. And I told you to love your fellow man, can’t you take a hint? #8 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" if you are into, um, stuff that uses a lot of leather/lubricant/Las Vegas. If the other person is Into it, however (Pursuant to #4 ), then have at it, take pictures, and for the love of Mike, wear a CONDOM! Honestly, it’s a piece of rubber. If I didn’t want it to feel good when you did it I would have added spikes or something. Their holidays include: Gasparilla Pirate Festival (Last Saturday of January, Tampa, Florida) Darwin Day (12th of February) Birthday of Momofuku Ando, the inventor of instant ramen noodles (5th of March) Scurvy Awareness Day (2nd of May) Prophet Bobby Henderson's birthday (18th of July) You can read more about them at www.venganza.org/about

Settingz321:Yes, they eat everything that is edible and not poisonous to humans. You should go back and read 'all that's. |
