Bless his noodly appendage

I believe that the big bang was an overcooked ravioli that burst us all into existence, in the name of the fusilli, the sacchettoni, and the holy gnocchi, al dente.

I sacrifice C:\Windows\System32 to you, old noodly one! 🗑️ Bless me with the computing power to pwn my enemies in CS2, see them driven before me on Twitch, and hear the Lamentations of their simps.

I'm an ordained minister in The Church of the FSM and I approve this liturgy. I should seriously ask Bobby if this can make it into official church doctrine.

[–] GreenMario@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I just realized the meme said "believe" and not "delete" cuz I'm half blind and shit but whatever I was inspired anyways thanks to the FSM. No regrets

Bring back the pirates to reduce global warming! Correlation is causation! Ramen!

There will never be anything more illustrative of the limits of human intellect than the fact that a master logician famously argued that:

I ought to do XYZ because there may be an omnipotent being that rewards doing XYZ

…and did not immediately think:

I ought not to do XYZ because there may be an omnipotent being that punishes doing XYZ

As a theist, I agree. Pascal's Wager is a terrible argument for God. It doesn't even address the variety of religions that contradict Christianity with contradicting moral imperatives. It only works if the outcomes are "My Variant of Christian God Exists" or "No God Exists".

That's why I'm working tirelessly to bring Roko's Basilisk into being! 👍

The popemobile has bulletproof glass. If the Goddamn POPE doesn't believe, why should anyone else?

Not any more, actually. Francis rides in the open.

I don’t need to. I KNOW the emperor of mankind will launch a glorious crusade to purge the Xenos and claim humanity’s birthright among the stars. Which means we need to triple our science funding yesterday if we’re going to have black hole cannons.

[–] InputZero@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Your faith is lacking slag. The God Emperor of All Mankind is already here leading Mankind to glory over the xenos and has been for millennia. He has chosen to not reveal himself to us yet. Accelerating our approach to the age of strife is blasphemy. What if we build the black hole cannons too early and they've degraded too much when the Adeptus Mechanicus excavate them. Have faith in the God Emperor's plan slag and rejoice in your duty.

(Warhammer 40k for anyone who's going wtf)

I'm ordained in the Church of the FSM and got my fiancé's buddy ordained so he could marry us week after next. Florida say's it's all good!

I'm personally a devotee of the Invisible Pink Unicorn. May her holy hooves never be shod.

[–] MajesticSloth@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

We know she is pink because we have faith.

"Cause! I'm not going to potentially spend my entire life following the specific rituals and sacrifices required of a religion. What if it doesn't exist? Then I've wasted. My... Oh... Shit."

Gotta Uno reverse card Pascals wager on 'em.

[–] MooseBoys@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Pascal’s little-known friend Luigi’s wager.

[–] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 year ago

Pastas wager?

I'm usually worshipping Rigatoni instead, spaghetti are just too basic for me. Sometimes also Fusilli.

I believe the pasta heaven is very much like the old Greek and Roman gods: more of a large family than just a single lonely individual.

[–] MargotRobbie@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago

I want to believe that this is probably the actual Flying Spaghetti Monstert that made this post on Lemmy.

Because it would be really funny.

[–] MasterNerd@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago

Because what if the lasagna monster is the real one and really hates people worshipping the spaghetti monster and subjects anyone who worships it to eternal damnation?

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 12 points 1 year ago (5 children)
[–] Minarble@aussie.zone 40 points 1 year ago

No it’s an actual photo.

Big pasta is trying to suppress it.

[–] lemmy@linkopath.com 35 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It might be but the image is similar to other pastafarians depictions of the flying spaghetti monster.

Midjourney mostly creates scary looking ones with a simple input.

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 22 points 1 year ago (9 children)

Bottom left looks like the 'aliens' from Devon Townsend's March of the Poozers video

My Dalle results are pretty good too

Damn, the Lovecraftian monsters in this thread are going to haunt my nightmares.

[–] Zink@programming.dev 13 points 1 year ago

I like to think of them as cookbook-accurate angels.

No idea, I found it on Mastodon and TinEye can't trace it so probably.

[–] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Pretty sure that this is the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

May have to ask a practicing Pastafarian to weigh in on whether this is a legitimate depiction of the noodlely goodness, or whether it’s like a white Jesus situation.

[–] Masimatutu@mander.xyz 23 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I know, I just meant that I cannot find any source for this specific image, which means it's probably AI-generated.

edit: And no, by the way, the depiction isn't completely accurate because the balls are missing. Here is an accurate depiction:

[–] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah, so you’re spreading blasphemy?
