I see a lot of people here asking "how can you own a church?" as if nobody can do so.... Yes you can and legally fleece the Sheeple without even paying taxes... Yes this is legal and people do it all the time...

I can't help but wonder how much the person who invented the church of the flying spaghetti monster has pocketed. Even though everybody knows that the whole thing was clearly meant to be a joke.
Actually I don't think he makes much as he runs it more as a way to organize and protest religion in politics. He is a PHD in physics if I remember and makes good money without resorting to conning money from the gullible...
