Too true.

Point of fact, the superman flavor of God is probably more bothersome to me than you, but it is not useful and does not win any converts when atheists adopt a policy of ridicule--especially one that is so easily dismissed as the FSM.
Sure, the FSM is fairly useless as it fails to convince most people, but that does not make it invalid. That just makes it worthless.

The beauty in seeing that which is worthless is that it makes seeing that which is valuable so much more important. Thus as you said it does not make it invalid, just stupid but that can be said for many things.

Not stupid, its still perfectly valid and makes sense. Its just worthless because it accomplishes nothing

Yes it is.
However I suspect that Rolling_Stone is the exception, not the rule.
