Get Your B!@%# A$$ Back in the Kitchen, and Make Me Some Pie!

Gotta love those fundamentalists.

A private school in Kansas has barred female officials from refereeing boys sporting events on the premise that females cannot have authority over males.

Unless the school has an all-male faculty, how long will it be until one of the students goes straight Cartman on his English teacher?

Has Kansas finally supplanted Florida as the national leader is off-beat news?

Flying Spaghetti Monster

A couple years ago I'd heard about the Flying Spaghetti Monster when the debate was raging in Kansas about evolution vs. intelligent design but I had no idea that it was still going.

This whole thing started back in the day when a physics student from Oregon sent a letter to the Kansas School Board demanding equal time to advocate his view that the Flying Spaghetti Monster, or FSM, had created the universe. I won't go into the whole timeline, go to Wikipedia if you want to read the details. Anyway, the idea that followers of FSM, called Pastafarians, dress like pirates really pumps me up. Perusing my best online friend I also found out that there is an international "talk like a pirate day," and it is pretty much FSM's Christmas. Also the fact that you can argue that dressing like a pirate is an expression of religious freedom is a very liberating idea.

If you already have your own religion or you're not won over by FSM or their pious pillaging pirates, then you should check out similar fake religions including:
Frisbeetarianism (Which obviously sucks)
Sentient Puddle
Scientology (Tom Cruise will now haunt me for years)
and my second favorite, Invisible Pink Unicorn
