Flying Spaghetti Monster or Invisible Pink Unicorn?

[Whyatica]

This poll came from a debate in the chat room (http://www.skepticsrock.com/chatnow/) about who is better: The FSM or the IPU?

Vote here and decide this once and for all!

The IPU was first! It is the greatest!

[The Sopwith Turtle]

Double post. Am embarrased and will go back to lurking now.

[Lisa Simpson]

Don't be embarrassed. Happens all the time.

FSM RULZ!!!!

[geni]

IPU. The followers of the FSM can't read fecking instructions.

[rustypouch]

FSM, because his Heaven has a stripper factory and a beer volcano.

[Dragonrock]

GTITS cuz it tastes better.

[Kiless]

IPU - my husband said he was the inventor of that saying. I should do a search to see if indeed he is the first to use it...

[Mojo]

FSM.

What has the IPU ever done for us?

[H3LL]

I don't know about you, but the IPU gave me super-powers.

It's got to be IPU...All others are pale imitations.

The Great Invisible Flying Pink Spaghetti Taco Unicorn Monster In The Sky defeats everything.

[KingMerv00]

Ok this is a silly discussion.

Everyone knows that DR. Hovind has shown (with math) that complex structures like a unicorn cannot simply spring into existance. A collection of noodles, on the other hand, is not irreducibily complex.

He who cannot be slurped watches over you.

These are both pale distortions of the Invisible Pink Hamster Orbiting Neptune. Begone, poseurs!

FSM and IPU are members of the same duanity.

This poll came from a debate in the chat room (http://www.skepticsrock.com/chatnow/) about who is better: The FSM or the IPU?Better in terms of what?

The IPU is a wonderful comparison to the Unseen Sky Daddy, but the FSM created a mountain, a tree, and a midget. On the other hand, FSM is an alternative to both Evolution and Intelligent Design Th... Theo... T... (I just can't string those three words together).

Never mind. I've decided the FSM is better because not only did it create the universe, a mountain, a tree, and a midget, but it also works against fundy nonsense and pirates. FSM gets my vote.

[Ladewig]

When I am in Heaven and you are in Hell being trampled by the IPU's cloven hooves, I'll laugh at you for rejecting the IPU's love. Haw Haw.

[Doubt]

Cthulhu!

FSM is just a meal with an attitude.

IPU does not even claim god status and has no worshipers other than pre-pubescent girls with lots of stuffed animals.

Homer is god!!!! mmmmmmmmm...sacralicious.

I'm going to postulate that somewhere down the line, someone is going to find out that they're one and the same.. :D

I'm going to postulate that somewhere down the line, someone is going to find out that they're one and the same.. :DBoth the Invisible Pink Unicorn and Flying Spaghetti Monster prescribe dominant nouns that assert non-existence. In both cases, the representative entity is a hypothetical creature corresponding to an imagined, but empirically improvable, living being.

A Monster is defined as “an animal…of abnormal form or structure” or “an animal of strange…shape”. 1 (http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=monster&x=11&y=13) A Unicorn is defined as “a…animal…with the body and head of a horse, the hind legs of a stag, the tail of a lion, and a single horn in the middle of the forehead”. 2 (http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=unicorn&x=0&y=0) The abnormal form and structure and strange shape of the unicorn is consequently eiusdem generis as the prescribed definition of that of a monster.

Such as the comparative equality of the fundamental structures has been established, consideration of the primary adjective properties of these equivalents can be derived by investigation of the elementary purpose of such properties within the context of the intended employment of the questioned terminology. We find that just as the Monster possesses the improbable property of presenting a uniform exterior resemblance to spaghetti, the Unicorn exhibits a parallel peripheral quality of the color pink. As such, the underlying purposes are in totidem verbis identical properties ascribed mutually with similar connotations which therefore imply sine prole explicit correlation.

Despite the establishment of overwhelming evidence of similarities, exploration of the primary subjunctive prefaces is required to institute incontrovertible consistency. Both creatures in question exhibit descriptions of abilities fundamentally contrary to their established definitions. A unicorn described as invisible cannot, within defined philosophical terms, be said to posses a property of pink. A thing that is invisible, cannot be pink. Similarly, a monster described as spaghetti cannot fly sui iuris. Whether portrayed as invisible or flying, the indistinguishable descriptive element connotates indentical meaning.

In conclusion, a unicorn is identical to a monster, the exhibited property of pink or spaghetti as an exterior perception within the perspective of relating to such identical creatures is identical, and the premise of contrary abilities of invisibility or flying in such circumstances are identical. Therefore, the Invisible Pink Unicorn is idem quod the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Tell me, where does the Great Taco In The Sky fit into this?

Since I can't seem to find that horrible old taco play I wrote on the forums, I'll host it here:

This proves the Taco is superior!

[Dragonrock]

I once posted an exerpt from the Ancient Taco Recipe and recieved a language award nomination for it. If that isn't proof of the Taco's superiority then A-tacoists are just too stupid to live.

[c4ts]

Yes. Language Award nominations make things true!
