I was guided by His Noodly Appendages...
I was overwhelmed and enlightened upon reading the "The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster" by the great prophet Bobby Henderson. This religious tome has shown me the way of Pastafarianism. It provided me with the best that has to come. Their heaven is something you'll be dreaming of: a Beer Volcano and a Stripper Factory. How can you match your Heaven with that?
This religion is not just hocus-pocus stuff, this is backed up by hard science - empirical evidence! They have graphs, data analyses, equations and even peer reviews. Truly, this is the Best. Religion. Ever.
They are a peaceful, open-minded, religion and they do not believe in dogma. They accept you with open arms - not forcing you to be part of them. Plus, there's a 30-day God-back guarantee: if you don't seem to like it, your religion can take you back.
To conclude, this is on par with other religions. And it's true that if you want equal time to teach ID (Intelligent Design) in classes, it's also fair to teach other forms of theory like FSM which is so far, a tastier choice.
Hail the Spaghedeity! Aaargh!

This is the funniest book I've read in a long time. Bobby Henderson is a young graduate in physics, and he did not like the trend he saw in science education. He wrote a letter to the Kansas State Board of Education, suggesting that if they require Intelligent Design be taught along with Evolution (which is "just" a theory), then equal time must be spent teaching his newly invented religion, "Pastafarianism". Let the students hear all sides of a controversy, and then let them decide.
Henderson gives scientific "proofs" that the Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM) created the world. After all, spaghetti is nutritious, tastes good, and is affordable by college students. Pastafarianism is non-dogmatic, and is based on just as much "solid" evidence as Intelligent Design. You can try this religion for 30 days, and if you are not satisfied, your "old god" will surely take you back.
The human genome is 95% in common with apes, but 99% in common with pirates. Therefore we must be descended from pirates, who are the "chosen people". Moreover, the inverse correlation between pirates and ocean temperatures is a clear indication of a causal relationship between pirates and global warming. Pirates have a bum rap--they are not the evil creatures that media have made them out to be. Proselytizers are urged to dress in full pirate regalia, and to focus on college students. Henderson gives advice to those who find themselves in the missionary position.
This book is strictly for the politically incorrect. If you are easily offended, you might want to waste your time reading something else. But if you enjoy parodies, you will love this book, and also the web site: Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster

4 stars? 5? How does one rate or review a sacred text? It’s not something I would usually do, but I believe the word of His Noodly Goodness should be spread. We need to increase the number of pirates in the world, so that we can fight climate change.
Anyway, this was brilliant and very funny. You should all convert.

The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is the first holy religious tome I found that really speaks to me. After trying the Bible (a terrible book where dashing babies upon the rocks is encouraged by God) and the Book of Mormon (which is basically just Bible fan-fiction), I was looking for something more.
That something more is our noodly LORD, the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Bobby Henderson is a true prophet in our day. FSMism is the ONLY religion that is scientifically proven, has a beer volcano and stripper factor in heaven, requires absolutely no belief, thinks pirates are awesome, and has the added bonus of being extremely delicious!
If you're looking for a religion that has more than 52 holidays a year (every Friday is a holiday), then LOOK NO FURTHER! If you just want a religion with a couple holy days then FSMism is clearly not for you (and you obviously have no brains because who the fuck doesn't want extra holidays you pretentious jerk)!
I know with every noodly fiber of my being that FSMism is the One True Religion, here to save us from ourselves. Due to my miraculous conversion out of the depths of agnostic atheism, I have promised my LORD, the ever-tasty marinated noodle in the sky, the great, grand, incredible FSM, that I will eat pasta every Friday in honor of his glory.
May all read and be converted,

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was "Arrgh!" Piraticus 13:7......
All of this, just because some religious fundies wanted creationism taught in the classroom. You started a new religion....way to go! It's a pretty funny read, highly recommended. May his noodly appendage touch you, RAmen.

PRAISED BE HIS NOODLINESS!
I have seen the light, having been touched by the FSM's noodle appendage*! Does your heaven have a beer volcano?
RAmen!
*Not like that. Get your mind out of the gutter!
