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 love the Flying Spaghetti Monster. I love it even more when people are "offended" by the FSM. It is a wonderful piece of satire that shows ID for what it is- a farce. Pastafarians, atheists and intellectuals unite!
Your picture looks amazing. My only suggestion would be to use a less modern looking text for the writing. An older, handwritten font would probably look more authentic.

Thanks for the comments and feedback. I will be sure to consider that for future ikons!

i find it totaly unbeliavable as well! your work is great however i do not understand is it a joke or some weird sarcasm? and that icon before restoration looks very modern as to say if i compare it to all other 13th century iconography or slavic churches which i have seen with my own eyes! O_o dont get me wrong i am not trying to offend you but this is just ...just... i dont know what to say...

Thanks for the comments! Of course this is 100% fact. I mean, we're talking the Flying Spaghetti Monster here. That should be obvious.

- All hail the flying spaghetti monster!
- Anyways, I still don't get it. Is it real or not? I wouldn't be surprised. A lot of crazy gods have been made up in history.
- It's a good picture. His spaghettiness...ness is represented really well. Now, I better make sure the Invisible Pink Unicorn doesn't find out about this post.

First His noodliness changes this word from "hail" to "fail" and now He makes me post my reply twice. He has such a power...

Well, I do have a short attention span but I did read that entire excerpt and some of The Everlasting Man and to be honest......so what?
Please don't hesitate to be clear and concise with your point.

It is literelly impossible to be both concise and clear (at least by this website's standardes) at the same time with any one point of Chesterton's books and essay's, as he was the most complete thinker of modern times, and the most prolific writer. Further more, I am a lousy editor, and therfore stink at selecting passages and quotes quickly. All I can ultimatly do is point you in his direction and hope his enjoyable writing style keeps you engaged long enough to comprehend his overall meaning.
But I will try to explain my self further anyway:
The "Defendent" essay was relevent in that it stands for your rights as a satirist, (one of unique imagination, I might add), and is of such universiality, that I find it hard to belive that any sane satirist, even a unique one, would not heartly enjoy such a brilliant defense of their art, the art of the absurd.
Second, The Everlasting man was written in response to two events, the writing of H.G. Wells' "The Outline of History" [link]
and the Scope's Monkey Trial.
That is the best I can do to keep it relativly short.
You are an exelent artist, and a unique controversialist, and so was Chesterton. That has got to be interesting.

Thanks for the additional info. I guess the tone of your original response made me a bit apprehensive. I hadn't come across Chesterton before but I appreciate your recommendation and will look further into his work. Thanks for your comments!

Tone, what tone? The internet make autistics of us all, and I should know, as I am autistic. God bless you and don't slip on the sauce!
