>The central belief is that an invisible and undetectable Flying Spaghetti Monster created the universe.

What exactly is meant by 'undetectable'?
Do they mean inaccessible to the human senses, or are they claiming something stronger?

>> No.1317446

Meaning we can't comprehend because it's too magical. Yet we can still knowledge about it and how it made us.

>> No.1317449

>>1317446

Isn't that a rather overt contradiction?

>> No.1317452

>>1317449
Of course not!

>> No.1317457

Seriously though, do Pastafarians facetiously claim that the Flying Spaghetti Monster is beyond knowing?

Welcome to religion.

Undetectable by any of our means or sciences.

We only know about it because it talks to us willingly every now and then.

It is my understanding that most religions claim that their god(s) are knowable.

>> No.1317470

>>1317468
Yes, while saying it is impossible to comprehend their god. They sure love to ignore contradictions.

I'm not sure they claim that.

And the god told men that he was made of Spaghetti?

>> No.1317484

When we say prove their words as bullshit. They say God works in mysterious ways. It the same as saying, WE CAN'T COMPREHEND HIS ACTIONS.

>> No.1317491

>>1317478
Presumably.

>> No.1317492

Look science and pastafarianism can co-exist we just need to accept that science understands the material world... but some things are beyond science and the domain of religion.

I know Pastafarianism is the real religion because I have faith in it.

>> No.1317496

>>1317473
Sure they do...

"How come mommy died?"
"God works in mysterious ways, son."

When I said "It is my understanding that most religions claim that their god(s) are knowable." I meant that most religious people claim that certain aspects of god are knowable.

Religions people claiming not to understand why god does what he does doesn't really contradict their claim to know certain attributes about him.
