The '''Flying Spaghetti Monster''' is a parody of religion that began as a critique of the [[Kansas Board of Education]]'s decision to allow the teaching of [[Intelligent Design]] in public schools.  Arguing that [[Intelligent Design]] was a thinly-veiled attempt to bring religion into the classroom, Henderson constructed "Pastafarianism" as a new theological system and argued that it too should be taught alongside Evolution and  [[Intelligent Design]].<ref>[http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/08/27/AR2005082700019.html?nav=most_emailed Verbatim: Noodle This, Kansas - Washington Post]</ref> on the notion of "teaching the controversy."

The '''Flying Spaghetti Monster''' is our lord and savior, and creator of all things. In his infinate wisdom, he uses His Noodly Appendages to guide us through our lives.

 

[[Richard Dawkins]] uses the flying spaghetti monster in his book ''The God Delusion'' attacking belief in God, as he is firm believer in Pastafarianism himself.
