May you be touched by his noodley appendage
Ramen.
Crying on the toilet at this rn
Ah yes, Pascal’s wager. “Fool stupid God with this one simple trick!”
Came in here to mention Pascal’s wager as well. Though the argument isn’t so much to fool God as it is to basically slowly convert someone out of habit so it’s more like “fool weak minded people with this one simple trick” lol
How about Pasta’s wager?
Can you imagine some dudes taking this literally and walking around with religious gear of literally every cult because “why not” lol
Ah shit, that actually sounds like a neat concept for a D&D character.
“Why the hell do you have a talisman of Cyric?!”
“Just in case. 🤷🏻♂️”
Make it a Bard who wanted to be a Cleric but was indecisive about it and couldn’t decide which Deity to worship, so he “worships” all of them. Just in case. Whenever he successfully casts Bard spells or rolls for a performance check, he praises a random deity. Has a whole keyring of talismans and holy symbols to pick from as needed. Stack as many proficiency bonuses on deception and persuasion as possible and convince the whole world he really is a Cleric.
What have I got to lose? My mental freedom and my sanity. Those are kinda precious to me.
Also I decline to wear a metal colander on my head.
Heretic! may your pasta always boil either too soft and mushy or hard and chewy but never al dente again.
Oh no! Maybe I should renege my sacrilegious remarks and keep one foot in Pastafarianism “just in case.”
Thats okay friend, do not allow the colander wearing heathens into your mind and heart. All true faithful know that the only proper grab is that of the pirate.
What if I don’t like pasta? Will I still go to hell?
You don’t like pasta: you’re already living in Hell
You can repent by drinking 6 jars of marinara (Prego is not acceptable)
Don’t listen to this heathen, all who seek his noodles are welcome regardless of the sauce you choose… except those who misfits who eat the devil’s cream based sauces… May they give themselves neverending gastric distress.
Does carbonara count?
I watched the latest Pete Holmes special on Netflix and it was largely hilarious, but his section around atheism was misguided. I think he (and perhaps many others) have a misconception of what I (and perhaps many atheists) think.
It’s not that I believe there definitely isn’t any concept of a god or gods or supernatural blob creature outside of space and time that we cannot fathom, it’s that the ones we’ve so fathomed so far are clearly man-made fiction.
I saw the same thing and had a similar thought. A lot of it comes down to a misunderstanding of the vocabulary. Implicit Atheism =/= Explicit Atheism =/= Agnosticism =/= Apathesim. Admittedly there are a lot of folks who say they are Atheists that are really kinda not Atheists at all b.c. they don’t understand the words and never bothered to learn.
Do his spaghetti tendrils grow back? They look very tasty and I want to eat them.
I can always ask forgiveness on my deathbed and score points with the Christian version of God if he exists.
I dunno wtf I could do if any other gods turn out to be real; none of them have loopholes like Christianity… Maybe Dionysis would think I’m cool and allow me into Elysium. 🤷🏻♂️
Presumably my spaghetti?
