Flying Spaghetti Monster: in the UK

Telegraph News in the UK

"In recent weeks, a satirical attack on the teaching of Creationism in American schools has become the world's fastest growing 'religion'. The Noodly Saviour looked at the furore He had created and pronounced it good, writes James Langton

For a growing band of devoted followers, He is the Supreme Being; creator of the universe and all living things. To the rest of us, the Flying Spaghetti Monster looks like a giant heap of pasta and meatballs topped with eyeballs on stalks. As it turns out, both interpretations are correct.

In the past few weeks, the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster has become perhaps the world's fastest-growing 'religion' and maybe its most improbable. While no one can be sure of the exact numbers of 'Pastafarians', as acolytes are called, they may number in the millions.

Flying Spaghetti Monster emblems are in production (expected near the end of October) by Ring of Fire where pre-orders are being taken.
