Message passing has its place, some of the most impressive software projects ever built use it at their core.
That smalltalk does this at the object level is quite possibly not the most useful thing (though it is interesting), but at other levels in an architecture it can be an extremely powerful tool.
You can make spaghetti designs with any architecture, that's nothing to do with message passing per-se.
