Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti or linguine according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes to the skillet, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour in the white wine and stir, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let the wine reduce by half, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the crushed tomatoes, salt, black pepper, and oregano. Stir well and bring the sauce to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Increase the heat to medium and add the cleaned mussels and clams to the sauce. Cover the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the shells open. Discard any shells that do not open.
Add the shrimp and scallops to the skillet. Stir gently and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque, and the scallops are cooked through.
Stir in the chopped parsley and adjust seasoning as needed.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the seafood and sauce. Toss to combine, adding a splash of reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
