But why do you want to preach your belief to everybody here? You have started a thread telling us all about your rather, errr, interesting religion, but you don't want the rest of us talking about our religion! I think that's a first for this forum. I don't think there has been anyone else who has started a thread promoting their religion, but you have! And you want to stop others from making a religious comment occassionally?

A bit of a pot and kettle, perhaps?

Ahh, good point brother Willem,

While I would normally not preach to others about my beliefs regarding the great and powerful FSM, I was offended by those importuning their narrow belief system onto us at every opportunity (and when usually irrelevant to the topic).

I therefore was compelled to post this thread, so supporters of the FSM, as well as Buddhists, Muslims, Jainists, Hare Krisnas, Atheists, Agnostics, Polytheists (didn't forget you Diana?) - and all maner of others who were being left out could express their views as well.

Given the rather mocking tone this debate is taking, I think I shall quietly bow out.

My thoughts harmonize with yours Pommy,
I’ll never experience comprehension why various inhabitants of the populace utilize such considerable terminology when a diminutive utterance will suffice.

Without a doubt the most intelligent thing I have read from you Willem.

Mocking tone? Every word I said was sincere. Do you begrudge those with differing theologies equal time to espouse their views?

Bollocks!

There are no voices in the sky and none in my head. Don't try to make out I'm religious just because you are.

Having said that, the FSM does have some appeal - from the pictures I've seen it looks yummy.
