Pastafarian Procession Attacked By Russian Police, Christian Fundamentalists by EvilBrain1(m): 1:31am On Aug 25, 2013 |
A peaceful procession by members of the Church of The Flying Spaghetti Monster in Moscow, Russia was attacked and disrupted by Russian police. The church members were said to have been knocked to the ground, beaten and arrested. Eight members have since been charged with holding an unsanctioned rally and face up to 3 years in prison. The police crackdown was incited by members of the radical Christian fundamentalist extremist group "God's Will" who pressured the police and later justified the attack claiming "Pastafarianism is a blasphemous smear against Christianity". The group has a history of multiple threats and attacks against Pastafarians, but their activities have all gone unpunished. There is an increasingly close relationship between the Russian government and the orthodox church with the recent jailing of anti-church protesters and the passage of strict blasphemy and anti-homosexuality laws. From nbcnews.com: MOSCOW, Russia -- The march of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster had all signs of being a satirical stunt – some of its 100 participants were armed with colanders on their heads and pasta in their mouths. 1 Like |

They were at least careful enough to cook up a 'legal' reason for this farce BIGOT AUTHORITARIANS: As, pointed out elsewhere on the internets, statements like this VANILLA BIGOTS: are blasphemous to Pastafarians... The orthodox church should be tried under the blasphemy laws it's pushing for statements such as this... But of course, this is completely beyond brainwashed eediots.... In today's world, I'm looking at you particularly, religion of 'peace' 1 Like |

I love this. Yes , this is the era of religious revival. What is the good for the sheeple is also good for the pastafarians. |

I advice all Nairaland Pastafarians to refrain from reprisal attacks against Christians. It may be hard to believe but not all of them are violent extremists. Remember that our creator the FSM (PBUH) demands that we be happy, cheerful and harmless. There must be no violence. We must be pirates, not ninjas. Whenever you feel anger at this type of injustice, stop and think WWJDD (what would Johnny Depp do?) |

Atheists, why blame the extremists? They are just elements of a universe which resulted from a chemical or physical reaction without meaning. How is it bad that some particles (christian extremists) collided with other particles (pastafarians)? 1 Like |

italo: Atheists, why blame the extremists? Hmmm. It seems you are getting the message. Should we reserve a seat for you? Spaghetti, perhaps? Reason beckons. |

italo: I just asked two harmless questions. Yes, but you were speaking in our holy language, a kind of speaking in tongues. |
