NO, young Duct-tape Pirate, they cannot. You be knowin the FSM (peace be unto His noodley appendages) from afore these sheeple ever looked up. Let them try! When the FSM (all glory to the Pasta High) comes again in glory, these atheist scum will be awalkin the plank. Lo, there shall come agnashion of teeth and agrownin at the Pasta Bar.
Give thanks unto His Flying Self.

The Ontological Argument for the existence of the Flying Spaghetti Monster:

P2: Existence is a perfection
C: Therefore, the Flying Spaghetti Monster exists.
May the Pasta be with you.

I can, but it literally disproves all possible deities:
For knowledge to exist, three facts must be accepted as true:
- Math & Logic are valid
- Direct observations or aided observations supported by Math & Logic are valid
- Supernatural existence, if real, does not involve itself in the natural realm (otherwise, any 'fact' could be changed by the interference -- say by the God of Gravity changing his mind on how strong it will be tomorrow).
Free will can thus be shown to be false:
- The mind is a consequence of the physical nature of the brain (Nonsupernatural causation axiom).
- Quantum physics contains a truly random component (Mathematical axiom)
- All observations can be expressed mathematically (Mathematical axiom).
- All principles causal to observations can be expressed mathematically (Mathematical Axiom).
- All mathematical expressions can be evaluated (Mathematical Axiom).
- An evaluation need not be deterministic, it can be stochaistic, that is, describing 'probabilities'. (Statistical mathematics).
- Since quantum physics can affect the human brain, and thus mind, the human state is mathematically stochaistic (consequential)
- If the quantum randomness is rescoped to be viewed as an input, the human brain ceases to be stoichasitic and is deterministic. (statement of rescope)
- A deterministically computable system is incapable of escaping its previous states, and produces outputs based on a computable result of the previous state and current inputs.(Turing-Church Thesis)
- Determinism counters free will. (By definition)
- Free will is not possible. (consequential)
- If a deity exists, free will is a natural consequence. (axiomic, potentially debatable. However, a deity that creates intelligence without free will cannot hold its creation responsible)
- Free will does not exist, therefore, deity does not exist. (modus tollens).
The idea of a god existing is disproven logically.

What flying spaghetti monster? A university philosophy lecturer once place a chair on the table and told his class "Make me believe this chair does not exist" One of the students stood up and said "what chair?" The lecturer passed him!

Jake M,
"Black Smokers" have shown that life can survive boiling.
Science itself thus supports belief in the FSM.
(though it may suggest that the earliest form of the FSM was in fact Carbonara. This is not an orthodox FSM doctrine)

Disprove him? Why would anyone want to risk his noodly wrath by attempting such a thing? Just think of the Beer Volcanoes of his holiness the FSM (pbuh) that will await you, my brother. RAmen.

Nope. No one can. Theists rave about this all day long - you can't prove a negative. I've noticed that a lot swallow their own words when it comes to other gods... because OBVIOUSLY other gods don't exist and there's no question about it.
They aren't FSM agnostics, they're FSM atheists.
Curious, isn't it?

the rule of the ' GREAT ALMIGHTY TEAPOT' can prove anything. THE TEAPOT circles the universe an knows all and controls everything, neither pray to, nor bow down before, any other.So says 'THE ALMIGHTY'

Not at all, unless you're the starter of Pastafarianism.
The religion itself is less than a year old!
