I thought on this site anything goes. Maybe in your eyes theists are the same, but there are major differences on the belief viewpoints.

I don't understand this response. I was pointing out that FSM is satire. It was created as satire. The folks that claim to be "Pastafarians" are playing it as satire, and understand the history and purpose of it.
Then you jump to "maybe in your eyes theists are the same". Are you kidding me? How many thousands of Xtian denominations are there alone? All are the same? Not even remotely. Yes, there are major differences - no consensus about what they believe. And how did we get from "the Flying Spaghetti Monster is satire" (and understood to be satire!) to "all theists are the same in your eyes"? What is "the same" about all theists is that they believe there is a god. We're atheists. We don't believe there is a god. Or Satan, or demons, or angels, or ghosts, or Zeus or Santa Claus or Apollo, the Tooth Fairy, Yahweh or Allah, or a Flying Spaghetti Monster.
