GOD SPEAKS! The Flying Spaghetti Monster in his Own Words [Paperback]

Jon Smith (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 10, 2010

Wisdom direct from the FSM's noodly lips. Insight on sex, service, and cleanliness; the 7 deadly sins and other world religions. Prophecies on the end of the world & 10,000 uncensored verses. With humor, GOD SPEAKS! challenges us to go beyond superficial religiosity and look for deeper meaning. GOD SPEAKS! is Prof. Jon Smith's first effort of anagram scholarship into the meaning of the "FSM." Although this book is of historical interest, its updated version, GOD SPEAKS: THE PASTAFARIAN QUATRAINS, offers a deeper and clearer insight into the true anagram message of the FSM. It is much more strange and sexually explicit.

This review is from: GOD SPEAKS! The Flying Spaghetti Monster in his Own Words (Paperback)

After reading The Gospel Of The Flying Spaghetti Monster last year, I expected this book to be more irreverent fun based around the whole FSM concept.

How wrong can one person be?

I managed to get through roughly half of the book and that was only because I couldn't find a newspaper at work to read instead. The author has taken the fun out of the FSM and my impression is that he is just trying to cash in on Bobby Henderson's creation without making much of an effort other than putting the words Flying Spaghetti Monster through a program that creates anagrams.

It's garbage and not worth the effort of shelling out your hard earned bucks. If you have already bought it, use it to prop open a door or stick it in the bathroom for when you run out of toilet paper.

The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster was a hoot--I recommend THAT book easily--but this book is a waste of money. Seriously. I'm sorry, but even The FSM wanted to smack this author with his noodly appendage.

This review is from: GOD SPEAKS! The Flying Spaghetti Monster in his Own Words (Paperback)

The author didn't have any purpose. This book was short and boring. He used a computer to create a list of anagrams of FSM related words. The list of anagrams alone takes up about half of the book. In the other half, he talks about the anagrams. There isn't anything clever or revealing about them. It's mostly a series of, "Oh, isn't it a coincidence that this is an FSM anagram?" moments. He also writes about how great his FSM logo is and how it's better than the more common ones. Please don't waste your time or money.
