Illinois Pastafarian Wants to Wear a Colander on his Head for His Driver’s License Picture

[Heddi]

3. I'm really surprised that a supposed open and faith-related group on DU is openly & proudly bigoted

against Pastafarians.

Their SOP even states that Pastafarians are EXCLUDED from participating in their group. Their religion is seen as, get this, being "not real." Their beliefs are, per the host of the group, "a parody intended to mock believers."

Just a few paragraphs before, everyone is welcomed, believers and non-believers. Well, not EVERYBODY. Just some everybodies.

Just a few paragraphs before, everyone is warned "This room is not to mock believers or non-believers," yet a prolific poster of that and other religious-themed groups is allowed, repeatedly, to denigrate and insult an admitted Pastafarian by calling his beliefs "bullshit," and accusing him of being closed minded.

Yeah.

I know.

Seriously.

Open bigotry against another religion simply for being DIFFERENT.

No ban on Scientologists. No ban on Evangelicals. No ban on Creationists. No ban on obvious cults. No ban for anyone practicing those religious. Nope. Ban some of the most open-minded and tolerant believers I've ever met.

Fucking sickening. Bigotry is bigotry, and many of our very own Loving Christian DU'ers are quite happy and proud in their exclusionary group.

I pray their God opens their heart and shows them that they're being nasty shits.
