Where do we worship and are Pirates our priests?
Forgive me oh Noodely Creator! For I am unlearned!

Pirates are more like Saints, and we worship at home, or strip clubs...

Yep, and the most holy places of the faith are pirate ships.

You know, I was thinking about trying to get a small congregation going in my town. We've got a wonderful public park downtown, and a fairly liberal atmosphere. I was kinda hoping I could refer to myself as an Ordained Pirate in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
Of course, I would want to make sure I was ordained first...
Think it's possible?

Aye aye!
As far as being ordained goes, considering that our lore is cannonical, one does not need to be ordained to preach, you simply need to have people to listen to you.

Yeah, but it would be so much more fun to be ble to say I was ordained.

Buy a pirate ship, that'll be a good enough ordination for most of us.

well, I own a several broadswords, a claymore, a hand and a half ummm... prob'ly shouldn't say the next word, multiple knives, saving up to have a katana custom made.
Never really liked cutlasses. The balance is all wonky for me.
I know that it could lead to problems if we had ordination, but still, can't you see yourself in front of a group saying "I am an ordained Pirate of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, come to tell you about His Semolinic Wisdom."

Knives and swords are fun, cutlasses do suck a bit on the balance side.
But it seems to me that "ordained pirate" is a bit repetetive. Straight out of the Department of Redundancy Department. Seeing as all pirates (the candy-passing-out kind, anyway) are His chosen people, to be a pirate is to be ordained.

Whoever does it, it is going to be expensive. Plus I have to finish designing the tsuba.
But back to the ordination. It is one thing to be ordained by a diety, another to be ordained by a church. If I explain that I am ordained by the FSM, it seems a bit presumptuous. If, however, I can say that I have been ordained by the Church of the FSM, it becomes a little more acceptable. (I just won't tell them that I'm also ordained by His Noodlyness).
