Recently two churches in Bend, Oregon, the Westside Church and Christian Life Center, were vandalized by a few morons with "Praise the FSM." FSM stands for the Flying Spaghetti Monster. The flying spaghetti monster is the deity of the church of the same name, a parody written in a letter to the Kansas State Board of Education to protest the teaching of intelligent design (biblical creation) in schools.
So Hemant Mehta, who produces the "Friendly Atheist" blog, decided to collect money thru his website and offer to pay the churches for the cost of the cleanup.
So Hement contacted the two churches and offered to pay for the cost of the cleanup. He was told that the cleanup had been done by volunteers and the pastors of each church thanked him for his offer of assistance. Nice job!!
