I remember one of my friends they had a Chatbot in a Discord server and it said its religion is Pastafarianism.
(Not anymore though)

"Pastafarians believe in a heaven after death, with a volcano that spews forth delicious beer instead of dangerous lava and a factory that produces enough strippers for everyone."

I remember when, years-ago, I looked-into what they were holding to be true, & they had ZERO respect for the validity of women: it was frat-house shit they were embodying.

They seem to have cleaned-up a bit, through the years, but..

The Western religions all presume that there's no POSSIBILITY of any truth being uncovered in doing the meditations-experiment, oneself, so .. axiom/prejudice based, as usual.

Downvote away, since what I just said matches evidence, but contradicts belief..

Feel free not to partake in the ironic, pun infected parody of organized religion.

I prefer the parody over things that really harm women, but the joke is somewhat stale by now.

Agreed, still the least problematic thing to come out of youtube atheism of the 00s

I don’t understand, are you basing your critiques of the openly fake religion solely on this 20 year old article or is that supposed to mean something else?

Is your critique of their views on women based on the quote about strippers? If so I do find that odd since women aren’t mentioned at all. Is there an assumption at work on your part that stripper = woman?

I’m keen to know more about your critique, and I’d love to hear your critiques of all the other similarly fake religions.

One more question if you’ll entertain it: What do you think is the most harmful doctrine of Rastafarianism and what do you think is the most harmful doctrine of your religion?
