Question about the noodly appendage of the one true faith

I'm interested in knowing more about your faith, in worship of the great Ramen.
I have a concern. I see several references online to the noodly appendage. This strikes me as a phallic sort of reference.
Is the Church of the Flying Spaghetti monster patriarchal like other monotheistic religions? Or am I misunderstanding the noodly appendage?

As a ball busting feminist, I wonder if this can be the light and the path for me, or do I first need to bust some meatballs?

[font style="font-family:'Georgia','Baskerville Old Face','Helvetica',fantasy;" size=4 color=teal]The noodlily goodness that is the flying speghetti monster, but also his companion the invisible pink unicorn, blessed be her hooves, who represents his more feminine side.

She is an invisible unicorn who is also pink. How one can be both pink and invisible is a matter of faith.

She has been known to put a hoof upside his meatball whenever he gets out of line~! And woe to those who find themselves trampled underneath her hooves![/font]

I love the sound of this pink unicorn. I am so relieved that it is not a faith controlled by MRAmen.

...arrghhh...says I....

It is my somewhat un-heretical(?) belief that the FSM embodies all forms, including those known and those, as of yet, unknown.

The perfect chaos of the FSM, includes the capacity to express any and all forms, and is thus, simultaneously, Null,Uni,Poly-Gendered.

5. I would like to form a sisterhood

of Our Blessed lady of the Invisible Pink Unicorn.



Would it be correct to understand that FSM and IPU constitute a binity, much like the Holy Trinity of the Catholic faith?

(On reflection, girlfriend needs a facial waxing).

...you a happier person (and possibly increases the consumption of pasta), then absolutely you may form a sisterhood, as long as you do not construe my (weak, insufficient and wholly unsanctioned) authorization as being any form of law or cannon and you do not take it upon yourself to make it into any form of law or cannon.

Sisterhoodism can be a good thing (if included with a healthy dose of pasta, sauce, parmesan and meatballs, as you prefer).


Plus...at the risk of sounding like a 10-year old...."she said 'binity'" pppfffftttt

to find out what word to use. Maybe the source was wrong.

No worries about me not getting my quota of pasta intake. Even if I face excommunication, pasta and I will always be one.

as a writhing mass of noodles surrounding a gaping orifice, "phallic" is not the proper attribute.
