Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
Ok mateys, so we at the Third Council of Olive Garden have begun thinking about putting together a second edition of the Canon. But we have restructured the way we're doing it to make compilation easier and more organized.
So this is the spot for prayers. And if you want, check out the First Edition of the Loose Canon here http://loose-canon.fsm-consortium.com/the-loose-canon/ for reference.

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
Possibly for the Book of Common or Garden Prayer-
The Apastale’s creed.
I believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster as the literal Creator of all things; or as a nice creation myth espoused by Pastafarians; or as a bit of a giggle; or not really at all. And sometimes one of these, and sometimes another.
And that He gave us the substance of His being, the pasta and noodles and meatballs and sauces, as Holy Sustenance; or as a nice way of achieving Pastafarian togetherness; or as part of a balanced diet; or today I’d rather have fish and chips. And sometimes one of these and sometimes another.
I believe that Pirates were Holy peaceful seafarers, who gave candy to children, and have been demonized by the unbelievers; or that having to wear full pirate regalia (or at least an eyepatch) before discussing my religion is a wise precaution to prevent boredom in infidels; or that dressing up is fun; or I couldn’t really give a toss. And sometimes one of these, and so on.
And that beer is a Holy drink; or that it is nice with a rum chaser; or that containing ethanol, it’s OK; or that I really couldn’t look at it now with my hangover. And sometimes etc.
I believe that the Letter to the Kansas School Board was divinely inspired by the Touch of His Noodly Appendage; or that Bobby Henderson is really clever; or that the letter is at least as likely to be real as the moon landings; or I’m sorry, I don’t read other people’s mail. And etc.
I believe that the Blessed shall have eternal life in a Stripper factory surrounded by Beer volcanoes; or that such a place is a nice idea; or that I just like strippers and beer; or that I’ve decided to become a gay teetotalitarian.. Etc.
R’amen.

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
Nice, except for the last part ("or that I’ve decided to become a gay teetotalitarian").
I dislike it because:
For instance, I am not a fan of nudity. I expect my stripper factory to turn out fully-clothed individuals who keep their clothes on; and then add more layers!
I dislike it because:
- (a) no-one decides to 'become' gay; people who promote that myth have been responsible for creating a whole lot of misery and I would hope that no-one here would wish to be associated with it in any way; and
(b) on a lighter note, the gender (or, indeed, species; they could even be robots) of the strippers is specified by the dearly departed, each to their own preference. Gay, straight, lesbian and bi-, trans- and a-sexual etc. all get what we wish for.

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
Good point. How about 'celibate teetotalitarian.' ?

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
How about some mention that not only is the gender/ species of the strippers entirely decided by the dearly departed but also the beverage from the beer volcano.
As a Brit, although I am a great fan of beer (and especially real ales), there are many times when I'd much prefer a nice cup of tea. I believe that for me the beer volcano will provide darjeeling as well sometimes.
Something along the lines of "I believe that the Blessed shall have eternal life in a Stripper factory surrounded by Beer volcanoes; or that such a place is a nice idea; or that I just like strippers and beer; or that the beer and stripppers shall be entirely what the Blessed decide they fancy at that point; or that I’ve decided to become a gay teetotalitarian.. Etc"

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
Yes, something along those lines would work well!
As the structure of the creed is based on the first choice in each section parodying a 'fundie' approach, the second a more 'mainstream' approach, the third an 'ordinary' persons approach, and the fourth my random guess at a Monty Pythonish (or indeed QI) response, I suggest replacing "or that such a place is a nice idea" with say "or that the form and function of the beer and strippers shall be adjustable according to the tastes of the departed;". So the last section could read-
I believe that the Blessed shall have eternal life in a Stripper factory surrounded by Beer volcanoes; or that the form and function of the beer and strippers shall be adjustable according to the tastes of the departed; or that I just like strippers and beer; or that I’ve decided to become a celibate teetotalitarian.. Etc.
Anyone got something better for the last choice in section one? Maybe "or you've got to be kidding?"?

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
No offense intended CF, but I think that addition makes it too clunky compared to the original, and that sentiment is reflected many times throughout the Canon already. I do prefer "celibate" to "gay" at the end though. Those are just my personal opinions, feel free to accept it unquestioningly as a mandate from someone with the decision making position in these matters. Or to tell me you like it and then ignore me behind my back, as though I won't notice when the end comes and the Loose Canon is finished. Or disagree with me on a friendly basis. Or tell me to sod off.

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
The points about the output of the Beer Volcano and The Stripper Factory are address in
The Book of Penelope 3:21-27
But that is no reason to reinforce the idea in other Holy Text.
The nature of the output of the stripper factory I often use to trap those that accuse us of sexism, turning their claim round and pointing out they are the ones being sexist in assuming the strippers are scantily clad women.
The Book of Penelope 3:21-27
"Well that seems decent of FSM but tell me why are there only cute guys and the occasional redheaded woman? I'm trendy but not everyone else is".
"It is because you are here. As with the beer volcano, so it is with the stripper factory. YOU and your desires dictate the out-put.... Why last year we had on guy who stood where you are standing and SHEEP (shorn of course) emerged from the factory".
But that is no reason to reinforce the idea in other Holy Text.

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
I have uncovered the text of the Hail Pasta prayer (through seer stones and grog and such)! Or I may have simply written them. Or there weren't any seer stones and I just stumbled upon them. I don't know at this point.
In keeping with our loose and flimsy standards, there are actually two versions that I uncovered (who knows how many float in the seas of marinara). Here they are.
Version 1:
Hail Pasta, full of noodles,
His Tentacles are with thee.
Blessed art thou among meals,
And blessed is the dressing upon you, marinara.
Holy Pasta, bringer of food,
Pray for us Pastafarians,
And for those who have not been touched by His Appendage.
R'Amen.
Version 2:
Hail Pasta, holiest of food
His Noodliness is of thee.
Blessed art thou among carbohydrates
And blessed is your common side-dish, bread sticks.
Holy Pasta, food for us all
Sustain us midgets
Until we eventually whither away.
R'Amen.

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
Our Noodliness prayer:
Our Noodliness,
Who twirls His Appendages,
Hallowed be Thy pasta.
Thy Noodles come,
Thy Parmesan be shaken,
On the mountain as it is in the sky.
Give us this day, our daily garlic bread,
And forgive them, the faithless,
As we forgive those who still condemn us.
But lead us not into overindulgence,
And deliver us from pastalessness.
R'Amen.

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
Apparently I put this in the wrong thread. Here it is in the correct one:
All Purpose Prayer:
O, Great Flying Spaghetti Monster,
Father of Fettuccini,
Mother of Meatballs,
The Alphredo and the Omega...
[insert general desire for decent fortune for you and/or others here, dependent upon the whim of the FSM of course]
RAmen.

Re: Loose Canon Submissions - Prayer Book
A quick blessing I use often, typed by my own fair fingers:
I hope that you can accept other people for who they are. I pray that given time and warmth, you can become flexible like the spaghetti, yet, like the spaghetti, still retain the full essence of what you are. You will be able to happily mingle in peace with all others in the colander of society, be they conchiglie or fusilli - I believe that one day you will understand your fellow man and find compassion for the souls of others.
We are all in the same pan. We are all of the same stuff, yet varied in shape and colour. I hope for a better future and understanding. We do not have hell, where I am from. We simply have justice, and peace.
R'Amen.
Also
As a Pastafarian minister, if you would like, I will bless your beer so that, in moderation, it will help bring you good health and relaxation. I'm specifying "moderation" because, whilst the FSM is awesome, he has not yet given me sufficient power to absolve hangovers. May you remember the magic art of pacing yourself also, so that you will avoid imagining you have created the entire of creation and end up sitting in the sea. (The FSM did that once. Actually made the firmament twice by mistake.)
