Touched by His Noodly Appendage
Saturday August 13th 2005, 2:27 am

Bible whackers in the US state of Kansas are trying to re-brand creationism as ‘Intelligent Design.’  The fundie crosstians want to force public schools to teach ‘ID’ alongside evolutionary theory.

A brilliant wag has established that there is as much evidence for the world being created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster as by a god in 7 days- and he reasonably wants equal time for his theory in the classrooms.

FSM Prophet and all-around guru Bobby Henderson is looking for work, too:

So it turns out that ANOTHER casino industry company is interested in hiring me maybe. I received this email:
Are you still looking for a job? I am trying to fill a programming position at [xxxx-removed-xxxx] Gaming. Please let me know if you are interested and when would be a good time to contact you.

My reply:
Is it in Vegas? By the way, I’ve applied to [xxxx-removed-xxxx] a number of times, without any response. I hope the irony is not lost on you that it took a letter about a FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER to get your attention. Trust me, I’m not the type of employee you want. You need a hopeless grunt who will be happy little peon in his cube and help you guys exploit the retarded. I’d rather be shot in the face. No offense.

No response as of yet.

Flying Spaghetti Monsterism has come to Australia via Rob Corr’s Red Rag blog entry.

It’s really Adam doing a Freemason handshake with the Dalek Emperor! Fact!

cileo, you could be right… the FSM does look a bit like the Dalek Emperor. However, Dr Who isn’t widely known in the USA.

Noting the presence of roughly meatball-shaped organelles in the deity’s noodly body, I suspect early FSM theology was developed over a plate of the Wednesday night special at Bobby Henderson’s local Tuscan restaurant.

Only the scholars of Spagbolology know for sure. 😉
