Flying Spaghetti Monster

From Boing Boing: Tonight’s episode of South Park features the Flying Spaghetti Monster and Richard Dawkins.

By the way, I’m all in favour of teaching “intelligent design” in schools. My lesson plan would go something like: this is “intelligent design”; it’s a hypothesis; why it can’t be tested; in science we need to be able to test our hypotheses; here are some examples of testable hypotheses; is “intelligent design” a scientific theory?; discuss.
