Felt fitting to post since it's alledged to be the religion of pirates.

Quote:

A student has been suspended from school in America for coming to class dressed as a pirate.

But the disciplinary action has provoked controversy – because the student says that the ban violates his rights, as the pirate costume is part of his religion.

Bryan Killian says that he follows the Pastafarian religion, and that as a crucial part of his faith, he must wear 'full pirate regalia' as prescribed in the holy texts of Pastafarianism.

The school, however, say that his pirate garb was disruptive.

Pastafarians follow the Flying Spaghetti Monster (pictured), and believe that the world was created by the touch of his noodly appendage. Furthermore, they acknowledge pirates as being 'absolute divine beings', and stress that the worldwide decline in the number of pirates has directly led to global warming.

Pastafarianism gained wide attention when its key prophet, Bobby Henderson, wrote to the Kansas School Board during the height of the controversy over 'Intelligent Design' being taught in science classes. His letter, also published on his website, demanded equal time be given to the teachings of the Flying Spaghetti Monster as was given to ID and evolutionary theory.

Since then, the Flying Spaghetti Monster has gained countless followers worldwide, although there are those who remain spagnostic.

The school, in North Buncombe, North Carolina, remains adamant that their decision to suspend Killian for a day has nothing to do with his religion, and quite a lot to do with his repeated refusal to heed warnings against wearing pirate outfits.

This was the first thing I thought of when I read this, and yeah I think I'll only be taken seriously if I goosestep down the street in full nazi regalia and a big crocodile helmet on my head. I'm sure that'd go over well with the neighbors actually (trailer park) so I ought to give it a try.

Heil Crocodile, and fuck these goddamn spaghetti monster delinquents. They didn't even come up with their own shit.

I'll help your cause if you need to disrupt something or other, if you want.

Wasn't the flying spaghetti monster used to disprove God on south park?

No, I don't see how that makes him mad at me when I didn't do anything.

Schools/offices/public places have dress codes. If you don't follow them, someone does something about it.

because one of you thought it was honestly to goodness bitching about a school administrator being concerned with someone wearing a "boom headshot" shirt and couldn't figure out why.

LoL, nice find Supa

This all came about a few years ago when the Kansas State Board of Education pushed to have Creationism taught in Biology along w/ Evolution. A teacher here in Kansas was pissed, made up a religion and demanded it be taught in the class room because it was a theory on how life was developed just like Evolution and Creationism. THe Pirate thing...I don't know, not sure if that happened here or not.....Wouldn't surprise me though, Kansas is the most back ward state in the union and if things go how they are leaning, Moderates will take over the school board again and said they would revert the Biology cirriculum back to how it was before and take creationsim out of hte classroom.

Love how they have a Pirates of the Carribean pic of Jack Sparrow as their picture of a man in "full pirate regalia"

I'd almost swear this was an April Fool's joke too, lol, just a couple days early
