But skeptics, as well as members of other religions, are always welcome. That is to say, you do not have to Believe to be part of our Church, but we hope in time you will see the Truth. There are many levels of Belief and each is no more or less legitimate than the other. And while some members of religion are indoctrinated True Believers, many are not. Much of the transcendent experience of religion can be attributed to the community. We believe religion – say Christianity, Islam, Pastafarianiasm – does not require literal belief in order to provide spiritual enlightenment. Sounds great but where do I start?įor a taste of what we’re about, watch this video made by our friend Matt Tillman, an Introduction to Pastafarianism: Spaghetti, Wenches & Metaphysics. Anything that comes across as humor or satire is purely coincidental. These people are mistaken - The Church of FSM is legit, and backed by hard science. Some claim that the church is purely a thought experiment or satire, illustrating that Intelligent Design is not science, just a pseudoscience manufactured by Christians to push Creationism into public schools. 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. 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 *.
