Pastafarian - it sounds like the punchline from a bad joke.
What do you get if you cross Bob Marley and the Dolmio Man?
A pastafarian
But to my great surprise pastafarian is actually a real religion, if not a light hearted one. It first came to my attention after reading this silly news article. Unsurprisingly enough the religion originated across the pond in the good ol' U S of A, and something I find curious is that Austria don't yet recognise it as an official religion, are they crazy?! The flying spaghetti monster is equally as credible as that Jesus bloke, and I'd say more credible than Vishnu. Obviously I'm just goofing about, I'm not being religionist, but it this religion does highlight how satire and such can make a statement. Whilst the link I'm about to post is from wikipedia, and every teacher I have had has warned me away from wikipedia's poisoned pool of knowledge it is actually a pretty interesting read. So here - lap that up like a kitten would lap up a warm dish of cream. Feel the humorous goodness trickle down you.
For today my blog is done, but I would like to draw it to your attention that Patrick is a liar. He said he would blog at 3 in the morning yesterday, and did he? NO! So hate on him whilst he's away for getting your hopes up and then violently cutting them down.
