Pastafarian Theocracy

Part of a thread on Lawyers Guns & Money

BigHank53: The world has provided us with numerous examples of what happens when religious dogma is interpreted as secular law. The term of art is “hellhole”, and most residents of modern polities would rather not live in one.

N_B: I am anxiously waiting for the failed utopian community of pastafarians. I have a picture of the overlords stuffed to the gills with gnocchi seated in front of a scaffold containing the bloody remains of the heretics who have put through the dough cutter.

Warren Terra: Not to mention the bloody conflict over whether gnocchi even are pasta, as versus dumplings.

N_B: They are pasta if the overlords say they are pasta.

rm: Right — just ignore the vast body of scientific evidence that pasta and other noodles share a common dumpling ancestor, with all that that implies for the categorization of gnocchi. I suppose you think it’s impossible to believe in the FSM and culinary science at the same time.

Malaclypse: The Sacred Writings of the Supermarket Aisle clearly state that gnocchi are pasta and not mere dumplings.
