Flying Spaghetti Monster
The Flying Spaghetti Monster made it into the Wikipedia, nice!
The Flying Spaghetti Monster is the deity of a religion, known as Flying Spaghetti Monsterism, started on the Internet by Bobby Henderson as a parody of the decision by the Kansas State Board of Education to allow intelligent design to be taught in science classes alongside evolution. Henderson submitted an open letter to the Kansas Board of Education demanding that the Flying Spaghetti Monster be given equal time in classrooms along with Christian and all other creation myths. The “religion” has since become an Internet phenomenon garnering many followers preaching the word of their “noodly master” as the One True Religion.
The doctrine of this emergent religious movement centers on the belief that the Universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster and mandates that His followers shall wear full pirate regalia to ward off natural disasters caused by the decline in numbers of pirates.
Shiver me timbers and ahoy! Ra-men.
