Many former religions are said to be dead and now no longer exist, and information about them is very scarce. But there are also emerging ones that have avant-garde and bizarre forms. The Russian Pastafarian Church preaches one of these religions. It originated in our time.

What is called Pastafarianism?

Pastafarianism is a young religion that was founded by Bobby Henderson (American physicist) in 2005. It is a parody created to emphasize the contrived and absurdity of some pseudo-scientific concepts. The name of the religion comes from the Italian word "pasta", which refers to different types of pasta.

Pastafarianism has another name - the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. He is the supreme deity of this religion. It was the Flying Spaghetti Monster (FMM), intoxicated, according to Hendersonon, who created our universe. Do not forget that the Pastafarian Church promotes a parody religion. And Hendersonon's statement is a protest against the Kansas Department of Education planninginclude the concept of Christian creationism in the school curriculum.

ROC: Pastafarian Church

The Pastafarian Church (ROC) appeared in Russia. Its head is Pure Pasta the third. In the world they call him Yuri Pekov. Pastafarianism is spread all over the world. And among people with a sense of humor, the new religion has become popular.

Dogmas

The Pastafarian Church of the Spaghetti Patriarchy has its own basic tenets. There are eight main commandments. The main one is "It would be better if you didn't do it." Friday is a sacred day. How to pronounce "Ramin!" It arose from the symbiosis of the name of the noodles ("Ramen") and the eponymous "Amen!" The main dogma is their complete denial. And heaven in pastafarianism is the presence of at least one striptease factory and a beer volcano.

Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster in Russia

In Russia, the church of the pasta monster is officially registered. The document was received on July 12, in the Moscow region, in the administration of Khoroshevo-Mnevniki. The church notified the city authorities in advance about the creation of a new religion of the Russian Orthodox Church. After that, "pasta services" began to be held and the activities of the Flying Monster were brought to the attention of those who wished. It is planned to submit documents for registration of the new church as a religious organization.

Head of the Russian Orthodox Church

The Russian Pastafarian Church of the Macaroni Pastriarchate has its own head. The main leader is Kama Pasta First. As reported inMoscow News, this is a Moscow businessman. But the real name of the head of the church is not called, the newly-made pastriarch prefers to remain incognito. Including he does not allow to capture himself in photographs. According to him, the new religion was created to "test" the authorities.

Principles of the new religion

Basically, all the principles that the Pastafarian Church promotes are parodies of the arguments made by anti-evolutionary creationists. According to the ROC, the Spaghetti Monster is invisible and imperceptible. He started the creation of the universe with trees, a beer mountain and a dwarf.

Evidence for evolution is specifically built into the LMM. Spaghetti Monster tests Pastafarian fortitude by making old things look much younger than they are. Changes measurements with his right hand and easily passes through any matter.

Global warming and pirates

The Pastafarian Church has a belief system according to which the sea robbers (or pirates) are "divine absolute creatures" and the first Pastafarians. And when they are portrayed as thieves and renegades, this is disinformation spread by Christian theologians. And pirates, according to Pastafarians, are peaceful and peaceful explorers who distribute candy to children.

Sea Raiders are included in the FSM and appear in Henderson's letter to the Kansas Department of Education. There were even illustrations showingthat causality does not equal relationship. Earthquakes, global warming, hurricanes and other natural disasters are a consequence of the decline in sea robbers that began in 1800

According to the schedule in the letter, as the number of pirates decreases, the global temperature in the planet's atmosphere rises. And these are related things. But nevertheless, they do not have causal dependencies.

How the world and commandments were created according to the Russian Orthodox Church

The Pastafarian Church was created as an alternative to the theory of evolution, which the Kansas Department of Education decided to include in the school curriculum. According to Henderson's concept, the world was created by a drunken Flying Monster, which consists of meatballs and spaghetti. And this version has the same right to exist as Christian traditional teachings.

Henderson demanded that the religion of the Flying Monster be included in the compulsory school curriculum. Moreover, with the allocation of as much time to Pastafarianism as to Christianity. Immediately after the emergence of a new religion, a parody Gospel of the FSM was written. In it, similarly to the Christian Old Testament, 8 dogmas are formulated.

According to them, it is proposed not to judge people by their appearance, manner of speaking or clothing. You have to behave well. And remember that a woman and a man are separate people, but both are individuals. A bore will remain just a bore. There are no people who are better or worse than others. There is only one exception - the ability to dress fashionably.

Howfunded by the church?

The Russian Pastafarian Church is a non-profit organization. The Pastafarian T-shirt shop has zero roy alty. All things are sold at the cost price for which they were bought by the company. On the website of the Russian Orthodox Church, you can get a certificate of ordination, which costs 200 rubles. Anyone can become a bishop for only 500 rubles

Patriarch Kama Pasta The first explained that this was done only in order to be able to cover the most necessary expenses: a telephone, printing a certificate, which costs a lot of money. Now the patriarch is in a big loss, but he is ready to take on all church expenses. Kama Pasta First does not want this project to turn into a serious organization with its own office and accounting department.

Why do we need a new religion?

He explained that the new religion is just a peculiar way of communicating. Active humanity must communicate on various platforms. Laughter and fun are powerful means of combating stubbornness and obscurantism. There are many people who just want a fun drive. And in the ROC there are many reasons for this. The new religion is intended mainly for atheists and skeptics who also want to believe in something, and with a smile.
