Ah, ambiguous gender. A genderless deity. Now that’s original and unique. Like the wonderous monster itself.

why the exclusively male language in describing the Flying Spaghetti Monster?

Well, the FSM does have (meat) balls…

Although they could be considered generic gonads (either testes or ovaries)…

And another thing . . . why the exclusively male language in describing the Flying Spaghetti Monster? Centuries of male-normative language have blinded us to the feminine aspect of the cosmic pasta glop, alienating us from an important aspect of our own starch-based spirituality.

I prefer to worship the Flying Spaghetti Monster as a feminine figure, using this prayer:

Flying Spaghetti Monster,
Life-giving Motherload of spaghetti,
Nurture us with your noodly embrace.
Sustain us as a mother sustains her child
At dinnertime with a plate of pasta.
You who formed life in your womb
As a cook who forms spicy meatballs in her hands,
Bless us and watch over us.
AAAAAAAARRRRRR MATEE!

Cool. Because whatever else I am (and that depends on who you ask; I have noted people do not seem to be lukewarm toward me, they either love me or hate me), I am definitely a round peg that does not fit in a square hole.

But you know, a pirate costume might be fun… Maybe next Halloween.

Do you have to be a pirate to follow him?

FSM ain’t that picky. Just back up some of your music collection. That’s enough for the RIAA, and enough for the FSM.

Well, Darwin’s Dagger, no, I guess not come to think of it.

And damn it for pointing that out Mikel. No wonder she’s holding her sword at the ready. She’s in big trouble! As nice as it is being in high demand, a gal could get mighty uncomfortable being that much in demand!

Only one woman? Come on, surely more than 1 in 10 Pastafarians is female?

Desktopped it, but I had to shrink it to the exact size needed as to not have a distorted image. Stupid Windows.
