Darwin, Evolution & The Flying Spaghetti Monster #7

Hey Folks,
You may have not noticed by know, but a new religion was born! (again, for those of you who don't know, please do your homework first: religion according to dictionary.com).

The particular religion is called Pastafarianism and it's sole purpose is to hail The Flying Spaghetti Monster, also known as The Divine Creator, The Chef of the Universe or: That Ugly Thing In The Sky, Yeah, The One That Looks Somewhat Like A Gargantuan Spaghetti.

As many other religions in the past, Pastafarianism is a reactive movement that has recently been established by His Grace, The Truely Blessed In His Pursuit of Common Sense, Bobby Henderson. The direct cause for the formation of Pastafarianism was the decision of the Kansas State Board of Education to allow teaching of intelligent design back-to-back with the theory of evolution!

What Bobby Henderson basically did and the will be remebered for throughout eternity: he invented this funny belief in The Flying Spaghetti Monster and in an open letter to the aforementiond Kansas State Board of Education, he requested his theory of creation to be taught alongside darwinism and intelligent design. Thus, effectively rendering the KSBE a bunch of idiots, ignorants and zealots in eyes of the greater part of the civilized world.

By doing that, he started a big fuzz, that soon changed in to an internet phenomenon (10 mln hits to his website, a majority of blogosphere reviews at least mentioned the subject, a wikipedia entry on the Flying Spaghetti Monster and the Blessed Bobby Henderson ans well, and so on and so forth...) that – courtesy of me – you can become part of.

No more talking this time, follow the links and enjoy!
