Of course they pick out a “Christian” who holds these idiotic views in an attempt to paint people of faith as fools.

They could have sought out a Hillary or Bernie supporter, but that would have gone against the narrative.

I think that I saw somewhere that if ya drained all the H2O off the planet, the ERF is shaped more like a peanut or egg.

I say it’s more like an almond joy bar but Hey that’s just me, I got a sweet tooth.

I’ve never heard of “Pastafarians”-or are you referring to the dreadlocked, ganga-smoking “Rastafarians” of Jamaica and couple of other islands? They are completamente loca...

It's an elaborate joke....

Statement regarding Traditional Pastafarian Headgear:

Allow me to confirm that the wearing of a Colander is a tradition in the Pastafarian faith. Not all followers dress so formally, but it is a common practice for us to do so while making official identification documents. As you know, religion plays a serious part in many people’s lives, including the wearing of specific clothing. Believers over the years have sometimes unfortunately experienced resistance, mockery, or even discrimination for simply following the guidelines of their religion.

Thankfully case law has repeatedly affirmed that believers have a constitutionally-protected right to wear such clothing in nearly all public situations including: work, school, while taking identification photos, even in the courtroom — provided that the clothing does not cause undo harm. That is to say, that religious clothing is with very few exceptions a protected right.

We, the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, are not a litigious group but of course we, along with the ACLU and others, have an interest in defending the individual rights and liberties guaranteed by the Constitution and the laws of the United States.

Thank you for your cooperation and May You Be Touched by His Noodly Appendage.

Sincerely,

Bobby Henderson,

Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster

No wonder young Dims think the north pole will melt in 5 years! They think the sun never stops shining on it! :)

“Scientifically when you go and try to prove the curvature, or the movement, of the Earth - you can’t do it,” said Robbie Davidson, the founder and organizer of the conference. “There’s not one experiment, from Earth, to prove Earth as what we’ve been taught.”

Get in a boat.
Start sailing West.
Return to where you started.

Will they explore “The TUNNELS”??

Yes, but if you want to meet actual aliens, there's an extra charge.

This is the biggest hype in the world.

Meant to make sophisticated people think any and all conservatives have similar views.

Meant to be able to contrast with “knowing” such truths as climate change is the most important thing on Earth.

If you don’t accept the doctrine of “climate change” you’re a Flat Earther equivalent.

I’ve heard of this. It’s a put on, right? They don’t seriously, literally, believe this do they?

Go to YouTube and do a search for Flat Earth. There are quite literally thousands...maybe tens of thousands of video about it. Crazy stuff but they are absolutely serious. I watched a few one day trying to catch the joke. There is NO JOKE.

I wonder how many people have figured out the flat earth effort. It’s an effort to build propaganda in a generic way. Convincing people that the earth is flat is only an exercise towards a larger, much more dangerous goal: global government by oligarchs, I suspect.

In other words, the really, really big lie.

Pastafarian. People who try to get their driver’s licence photo while wearing a colander on their head. Claiming religious regalia.

They do. A Radio Show I listen to, discusses these guys at length.

You should look up the one who tried to launch himself high enough to see the curvature of the earth. Used his Winnebago as a launch pad. It didn't end well.
