Those who ignore the Flying Spaghetti Monster do so at their own peril; for his noodly tentacles reach into every portion of the plate of life.

Flying Spaghetti Monster demands that we teach FSMism in class, in order to give kids a 'wide range of ideas.'

Well it didn't take long after Bush's announcement about ID before the opportunists attempt to cash in.

Landover Baptist has just come out with a new creationist textbook.

The Talking Snake Theory: Creation Science & History For Christian Children
(Recommended for Children ages 3-12) -by Pastor Deacon Fredhttp://www.landoverbaptist.org/thelittlejew_files/snake.gif

List Price: $14.95
Our Price: $17.99
You Save: Nothing. (Only Jesus Saves!)

Availability: Usually ships within 24 hours (if Jesus wants it to) from Landover Baptist Church in Freehold, Iowa:

Summary: The Talking Snake Theory is a fact-based historical Creation Science book for Christian youngsters. Readers journey back 6,000 years ago in time to the actual date when God created the first two humans from a pile of dirt and a spare rib. It is a time and place that, despite the first hand accounts from eyewitnesses in the Bible, most ignorant secular scholars and scientists refuse to believe existed. For True Christians®, Jews, and Muslims, our entire belief systems hinge on a few words from a talking snake who appeared around this same time. By using fun characters and cartoons based on factual accounts from the Holy Bible book of Genesis (one of the few history books that all three major religions in the world agree on), youngsters are taken on an educational journey they will remember for the rest of their lives. Children will learn the truth about how snakes used to have legs until one of them opened up his mouth and gave Eve (the first woman) some bad dieting advice. After God kicks Adam and Eve (the first humans) out of his Garden for listening to a talking snake, readers will follow the first family as they begin to populate the Earth. The author uses an imaginary character named "Becky," who is Cain's daughter by his mother, Eve, to explain how it was possible for Adam and Cain to find another woman to help them make more babies. After Becky agrees to be her dad's wife, they have more children together so that Adam can make babies with his grandchildren instead of his daughters, and so on. Young readers will want to use a brown pen to color the face of Ham who appears right near the end of the book after God turns him into the first Negro for staring at his dad's (Noah's) hootchie.

id isn't a scientific theory, it's a philosophical theory.

but some scientists have thorized that the big bang is the most recent event in the continuous cycle of a expanding and contracting universe.
