Conception
The Flying Spaghetti Monster was developed by Bobby Henderson in response to a decision by the Kansas state board of education to mandate the teaching of intelligent design. Henderson wrote the board and made a request that schools teach that the Flying Spaghetti Monster created the universe.The Washington Post: Text (August 28, 2005)Quotes
"Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. It was He who created all that we see and all that we feel. We feel strongly that the overwhelming scientific evidence pointing towards evolutionary processes is nothing but a coincidence, put in place by Him."—Bobby HendersonOfficial Site: Open Letter to the Kansas School Board"We are willing to pay any individual $250,000 if they can produce empirical evidence which proves that Jesus is not the son of the Flying Spaghetti Monster."Boing Boing, The New York TimesThe Washington Post: Text (August 28, 2005)
"...over 10 million people have been touched by His Noodly Appendage."— Bobby Henderson, The New York TimesThe Washington Post: Text (August 28, 2005)
