The '''Flying Spaghetti Monster''' is the deity of '''Pastafarianism''', a [[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, Bobby Henderson constructed Pastafarianism as a new theological system and argued that, if schools wished to "teach the controversy," they should teach Pastafarianism alongside evolution and intelligent design.<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/08/27/AR2005082700019.html?nav=most_emailed Verbatim: Noodle This, Kansas - Washington Post]</ref>

Since then, many [[Atheism|atheist]]s and [[secularist]]s have claimed to be "Pastafarians", implicitly using its obvious shortcomings to criticize actual religions, especially [[Christianity]]. More prominent [[Atheism|atheists]] and [[agnosticism|agnostics]] have also mentioned it, such as [[New Atheism|new atheist]] [[Richard Dawkins]] in his book ''[[The God Delusion]]''.
