Description
ANCIENT ICON DISCOVERED BENEATH CHURCHMarch. 2007
An ancient icon dating from the 13th century, depicting an image of the Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM) has been discovered after being hidden for nearly 800 years. Experts say that a find such as this is sure to astonish the religious world and also help to solidify the place of Pastafarianism amongst other major religions.
The FSM icon was recently discovered by Chris LaMonica, a devout follower of the Pastafarian faith, who claims that he was "lead to the holy location by His Noodly Appendage." Mr. LaMonica has decided not to reveal the exact location of the sacred relic in order to ensure it's protection. However, he has disclosed that it is in an underground room beneath an ancient Christian Church and that "it's really dark and kind of scary without proper lighting." Judging by the actions of Christians in the past, Chris LaMonica feels that if he did reveal the location of the icon, they would surely destroy it, claiming the location and even the existence of such artwork as sacrilege.
The ancient FSM icon was restored by Testing Point Design after months of arduous work. Other sacred discoveries of this nature can be seen at www.TestingPointDesign.com . For more information on FSM visit www.venganza.org

I don't deserve to see Him in his full glory! xD
Nah, I'm pastafari from the heart: when there's pasta for dinner, it's sacred for me.

The sign he's making is the Christogram (ICXC), pseudo-intellectual idiots.

Haha! That is what is commonly thought. However, any real-intellectual idiot would know that the FSM is especially fond of rabbits and makes their sign to remind us that He created them (and everything else). This would explain the Christians later coming up with the Christogram to excuse this Truth. They still can't seem to get the sacred FSM bunny out of their Easter holiday though.

Icons are sacred.
(Depicting a so-called "flying spaghetti monster" in an "icon" is hugely disrespectful.)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ahh but it's all relative isn't it? I could easily say, "Depicting a so-called 'Jesus' in an icon is hugely disrespectful." If I see the FSM as truly sacred, all other icons of gods are mocking the "true god" I happen to believe in. If I were to make an icon of Zeus or Mohammed would you consider them hugely disrespectful?

I think you're missing the point.
Depicting anyone other than a saint, angel, biblical character, etc. etc. is in some degree disrespectful or just altogether nonsensical. Icons are for praying and reminding us of God and his saints. So unless you're going to be intercessing to Zeus or Mohammed... which Orthodox Christians DONT obviously, then you are missing the point of an icon entirely.

No, I do understand your point. However, I don't think there's anything wrong with playing with the icon-style. You hold certain things to be sacred according to your understanding and I hold certain things to be sacred according to my understanding. The difference is that I will not condemn yours but rather accept it as another point of view.

Ok, I get that.
Thank you for being understanding.
I hope I can be more so myself.

Clearly. The more and more evidence like this that appears, the more and more evidence there will be that Pastafarianism is the truth. May the FSM touch you with his Noodly Appendage.

While I do not agree with Pastafarian beliefs, I find His Noodlieness a great figure.
Great Work.

According to the Gospel of the FSM every Friday is a sacred holiday. So, demand that three day weekend from your employer or you can sue them for religious discrimination.

I have featured this image in my new journal [link] which has the theme of iconoclasm. I will remove it if you find it's use there offensive. Thank you in either case for sharing your thought provoking image.

Thank you sir! Nothing is sacred in my eyes sooo...iconoclast away. haha

This is so made of win I cannot express it.
Even if you are Goddessless heathen who will have your kneecaps munched on by sacred dwarfs for eternity in Hell Number 721 (the Hell of Pastafarians) where you will have stale beer poured down your throat by strippers (as well as kneecap munching) in mockery of your perverse religion.
Could you, one day, 'discover and restore' a similar icon of the Invisible Pink Unicorn (mhhhnbs)? You might be given a Get Out Of Hell Free Card if you do...
IPU bless, and I'll pray for you, you unicornless heathen.
