Spaghetti religion!

Follow the link to a rather "special" website, home of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster!

Evidently someone in the States has got a little fed up with the prevalence of Christianity and "Christian" reasoning over there, such as the debate about whether creation has a role in science teaching.

Does it? Well, insomuch as science tries to explain "why" we're here, then creation has some role, because science cannot ever explain "why" we're here. It might get some grasp on "how" we got here, but even then it's grasping at straws the further back we go. So why does science get to preach its faith about how we arrived?

It may be worth pointing out that as a graduate in the semi-science that is economics, I have a lot of time for science, and scientific investigation. I love trying to work out more about this world God's given us. But try as I might, I won't find out why this world is here by science alone.
