Mostly the latter.

I'm just so chuffed that I jumped on this meme wagon right back when it was born rather than when it had been Metafiltered and Boing Boinged to death.

Firstly, here's the original Open Letter.

Since then a cult has been spawned and I've decided that I'm a pastafarian!

FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER - THE GAME - play the game...
FSM Video - see the movie...
Flying Spaghetti Monster Shop - and BUY THE T-SHIRT!

If you're wondering what this is all about, this provides a fairly comprehensive explanation: Touched by His Noodly Appendage

There's even FSM porn (and the costume was up for sale the next day on Ebay. As an added attraction for geeks the sellers pointed out that it had actually been worn by a girl. And she was NAKED too! I don't know how the sale went but since by that time most of their potential buyers had either fainted or were bidding one-handed, I suspect their sales pitch had backfired)

And it's a world wide phenomenon as witnessed by Las penas del Agente Smith » MĂșltiples apariciones del Flying Spaghetti Monster - this reminds me of the joke where Jesus wraps up a session talking to some hapless random with the comment "Must dash, I have to appear on a peice of toast in a Red State this afternoon"


WHY YOU SHOULD CONVERT TO FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTERISM

* Flimsy moral standards.
* Every friday is a relgious holiday. If your work/school objects to that, demand your religious beliefs are respected and threaten to call the ACLU.
* Our heaven is WAY better. We've got a Stripper Factory AND a Beer Volcano.

So having considered all this, I've decided that this is the only kind of Intelligent Design I can get behind.

Now ask yourself, WWFSMD?
