Not a bad idea...
Might traumatize some neighbors (I live right near three different church denominations, as well as two Jehovah's witnesses and one scientologist neighbors...

Eh, it used to be worse - our local Baptist sections are trying to buy the entirety of my street, but a few years ago all three churches were competing directly. The petitioners and solicitors were like locusts...

RAmen, Brother.

May his noodliness be with you, always. For surely you've been touched by his holy appendages.

The pertinent question here is.... How serious is your religion with respect to disparaging intolerance... If the answer is very serious, then of course it's serious (and perhaps I'm offended you would ask such a preposterous question).

On the other hand, if your religion is okay with you being intolerant, than I ask the same question: "Your religion can't be serious? Can it?"

conrad2468 in reply to trebuchet03Dec 20, 2009. 10:15 PM

no disrespect intended comrade. Since your religion has the words "flying", "spaghetti", and "monster" i would assume this was all one preposterously over-scaled joke. Assuming that you are quite serious, then I question your sanity. My religion is very tolerant of other religions we respect all religions (including yours) but respect ends where cruelty begins. Also, My religion is very serious, we have several un-explained miracles (we dont proclaim anything a miracle until it goes through several scientific analysis processes that proclaim it "unexplainable"). I may be ignorant but I havent heard of any miracles about the flying spaghetti monster.

There's no need for personal attacks on sanity ;) While some have gauged my personality against a normalized personality prototype, you are in no position to question neither personality nor sanity ;)

This being said, there have been several miracles this season - especially with the recent deluge of snow in the north east. However this is neither here nor there as religion (any religion) is not defined by it's miracles (if any). Perhaps the Princeton WordNet dictionary can explain better:

"a strong belief in a supernatural power or powers that control human destiny"

Emphasis my own ;)

conrad2468 in reply to trebuchet03Dec 21, 2009. 1:28 PM

I see. Good luck with that.

Look where you showed up!

AndyGadget says: Dec 15, 2009. 1:59 PM

You absolute rotter!
There I was, working on my entry for the Chrissy contest and now I have to make one of these. The angel on top of the tree is looking a bit tired and due for retirement and this will make a fine replacement.
I need to go to the craft shop anyway so add yellow foam to the list. Just one modification . . . The ball on the right is unlit, the one on the right has a red wide angle LED inside. I think His Holy Tentacleness would approve ;¬)
