Blog: Flying Spaghetti Monsterism

Dinsdag 20 september 2005, 22:00

I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster.

But what our scientist does not realize is that every time he makes a measurement, the Flying Spaghetti Monster is there changing the results with His Noodly Appendage.

Furthermore, it is disrespectful to teach our beliefs without wearing His chosen outfit, which of course is full pirate regalia. [...] You may be interested to know that global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters are a direct effect of the shrinking numbers of Pirates since the 1800s. For your interest, I have included a graph of the approximate number of pirates versus the average global temperature over the last 200 years. As you can see, there is a statistically significant inverse relationship between pirates and global temperature.

De snelstgroeiende religie ter wereld is zonder twijfel het Flying Spaghetti Monsterism, twee maanden geleden opgericht door profeet Bobby Henderson. Het is in feite een geniale satirische reactie op het Kansas Board of Education dat het creationisme in scholen op gelijke voet wil stellen met de evolutieleer. Het Flying Spaghetti Mosterism kent alvast een gigantisch succes. Ook ik was meteen overtuigd van de overweldigende bewijslast en noem mij nu met trost een Pastafarian. :-p
