Hooray for Revelation!

Friends, I want to tell you about a new friend who has come into my life. For decades and around the globe I have searched for truth & meaning, seemingly in vain, until the Truth came upon me! I have been touched by His noodly appendage!

In response to the Kansas School Board requiring "Intelligent Design" be taught alongside Evolution as an "alternative explanation for Creation", the fine folks at the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster have been lobbying to have THEIR account of creation taught in Kansas schools, too. This seem perfectly reasonable, particulary in light of the fact that both George W. Bush and John McCain clearly support making a range of "facts" available to children as demonstrated by their opinions on "Intelligent Design":

"I think that part of education is to expose people to different schools of thought. You're asking me whether or not people ought to be exposed to different ideas, the answer is yes." --George W. Bush, President of the United States of America.

"All points of view should be available to students studying the origins of mankind."--Senator John McCain

So Hooray for Consistency! I urge you to visit The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster today, read what they have to say, and support their most noble of causes!

You could purchase a handsome t-shirt and help finance the FSM missionary pirate ship. Be a part of the solution to global warming, rather than a part of the cause!

May you feel His noodly appendage in your life, today! Aarrrr!

BORN ON THIS DATE: Actor Dick Wilson, 1916, who said: "As she lay there dozing next to me, one voice inside my head kept saying, 'Relax... you are not the first doctor to sleep with one of his patients,' but another kept reminding me, 'Howard, you are a veterinarian.' "

DIED ON THIS DATE: William Penn, 1718, Quaker leader, colonist, who is immortalized in a 37-foot-high statue atop City Hall in Philadelphia. As residents of Philadelphia know, and most visitors quickly notice if they look up at the statue from the right angle, Mr.Penn is apparently proud indeed to be up there!
