So when do we elect a Pastafarian pope?

[EvolveOrConvolve]

Or does s/he appoint him/herself pope by running his/her skivvies up the mizzenmast?

1. I like the mizzenmast idea (nt)

[AlbertCat]

6. The skivvies bother me!

Frilly knickers for everyone!!!!!

[mr blur]

7. Actually, those are rather cool,

in a my-wife-doesn't-know-I-picked-them-up-by-mistake retro sort of way.

[BainsBane]

8. Very nice

Fitting attire for the Sisters of the Blessed Lady of the Invisible Pink Unicorn, or brothers for that matter.

Is there a matching brassiere or camisole?

10. Is there a matching brassiere or camisole?

[BainsBane]

11. That doesn't match at all.

2. i know I'm new to the faith

and perhaps I'm speaking out of turn, but I wonder if a Pope is the way to go? Not only is it hierarchical, but before long we're bound to end up with clergy diddling little boys. It's soooo 2014.

[LostOne4Ever]

12. I think those are some good points

[font style="font-family:'Georgia','Baskerville Old Face','Helvetica',fantasy;" size=4 color=teal]We need something more 2000 and now and as far away from corrupt clergy as possible

Do you have any suggestions sister BainsBane? [/font]

14. I've given this careful consideration

and I think we should choose a leader who will serve only one month at a time, the position rotating among the membership. As for all holy leaders, they must be chosen through divine intervention, in this case through the Ceremony of the Noodles, in which the Pastafarian with the longest noodle at supper on the last day of each month shall be the leader for the next.

3. Pastafarians don't abuse children,

so that would be a wrong direction to go in.

Besides, pirates like sex and don't have to hide it in dark rooms and pretend it never happened.

4. I propose that "pope" is a title bestowed upon the person who drains the keg.

Until that person obtains and taps a new keg, that person remains the "pope." So you see it's a thing you definitely DON'T want to be.

[NeoGreen]

5. I have a candidate...

...Grokk thinks he would be a good pope, plus he has plenty of kegs and taps...

[A HERETIC I AM]

9. For this group? "Pope" is a bit ham fisted, in my opinion

How about "Potentate". (Pastaentate?)

Viscount of the cheese fermenters

Chancellor of the noodle producers

[Heddi]

13. I vote for potentate

It sounds mysterious. My granddad was a shriner and they had potentates.
