Now I'm not all that clear on the tenets of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster but this caught my eye.

You may be interested to know that global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters are a direct effect of the shrinking numbers of Pirates since the 1800s.
Since scientists have shown that global warming is causing increased foul weather, and since this increasing foul weather lead to the Styrofoam Jesus being struck by lightening, we can say without fear of contradiction that it was not the Hand of God that burned Styrofoam Jesus to the ground but rather that it was caused by a severe shortage of Pirates!

Have you considered the possibility that a strip club really was the target and that the aim was a little bit off? (Any reason that god shouldn't suffer from astigmatism?)
