First of all I have not come to bury the FSM but to praise him initially. His good attributes are that he seems to be a supreme being monotheistic in tone. Secondly, if his attributes are metaphorical,then what could be more loving than comfort from a noodly appendage?

Of course that was never the motivation.
If Pastafarians therefore think that people with religion are intellectually challenged or psychologically impaired then pastafarianism is just a case of mocking the afflicted.
