Pastafarianism is the world's fastest growing carbohydrate-based religion. Pastafarians worship the Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM),
His Noodliness, the Flying Spaghetti Monster is the ultimate truth in the universe. It is the central point of worship in the religion commonly known as Flying Spaghetti Monsterism or Pastafarianism, according to which it is The Creator and Overseer, watching our lives and our world, changing them as it sees fit, by use of his most holy noodly appendage.
The eight I'd Really Rather You Didn'ts are the Pastafarian equivalent to the 10 Commandments. There are only 8 of them because two were dropped and lost.
"While brooding atop Mount Salsa because he cannot find a Pirate ship, Mosey the Pirate captain receives some advice from the Flying Spaghetti Monster in the form of ten stone tablets. These were called the I'd Really Rather You Didn'ts by the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the "Commandments" by Mosey, and the "Condiments" by his pirate gang. While there were originally ten I'd Really Rather You Didn'ts, two were dropped on the way back down the mountain, with eight remaining. This event "partly accounts for Pastafarians' flimsy moral standards." The Flying Spaghetti Monster's commandements address worship of Him, the treatment of people of other faiths, sexual conduct, and nutrition." - Unknown (Well, unknown to Arviragus13)
The origins of the Eight 'I'd Really Rather You Didn'ts' are currently unknown. (To Arviragus13).
