Pastafarian's Delight
Connie Morris tells Roy Wenzl of the Wichita Eagle that Pastafarians have sent her at least a thousand e-mails since last fall.
"They are very serious about claiming to be a religion," she said. "We know it's a satire. I don't mind the ridicule; it comes with the job. But I do personally object to my own religious beliefs being ridiculed, and that's what the Pastafarians delight in doing."
Beyond Connie's problems with assertive Pastaferians, this article provides a serious profile of science teacher Randy Mousley, the teacher who drew Morris' ire by having his Noodly Eminence stuck to his classroom door.
