And on a Christian missionary website, no less. Forgive them, Pasta, for they know not what they do...

His noodley apendage be upon us.
Posted by: Brian Macker | August 13, 2006 9:44 AM
His Noodlness is everywhere...

Sure, they say it's caused by the plane, but we know that they were touched by His Noodly Appendage, probably because there was a True Pastfarian on board.

It's lucky there was always a plane handy to photograph the blessed event.

There's even more!

Right off the coast from my house.
I knew I felt something that day..

Actually, that C-17 really belongs to the Pastair Force.

Excellent! The Marine Corps is summoning the FSM! Surely this trumps Bush and his invisible hairy thunderer...

Nah, it's The Great Flying Spaghetti Monster.
What are philosophers going to make of this? There's now more evidence for the existence of The Great Flying Spaghetti Monster than there is for god (you know, Allah, Yahweh, Jehova, whatever).

Actually, it looks like two brides taking vows. God is demonstrating his support for same-sex marriage.

Y'all are all wrong. That is obviously Indalecio from Star Ocean: The Second Story.
If his limiter is off, we're on DEEP TROUBLE here in SC!

I don't know when I have felt more cheerful---it is proof--proof I tell you that WE are right. I'm heading for the pantry to prepare our eucharist for dinner tonight right now.

I thought this FSM stuff was a satire! I re-penta!

What do the bible-thumpers claim to see in those images?
Posted by: richard schumacher | August 13, 2006 6:05 PM
It looks like the FSM used that plane to make his image manifest! Praise to the Pasta!
RAmen!

The pasta of pasta is made manifest everytime a 10 month old infant flings spaghetti.

Awesome photo.
We had a country wide census here last week. There was a small movement to put down 'Pasterfarian' down in the religion box. 'Jedi' was the popular one six years ago.
After consideration I marked 'No Religion'. I don't think it will make any difference but I thought the government should know that not everyone is a god botherer.

Praise the Pasta!
