DAYTON, Ohio, Feb. 20 (UPI) -- Authorities in New Jersey said they were called by motor vehicle workers who reported a man refusing to take a pasta strainer off his head for an ID photo.

South Brunswick police said they responded to the Motor Vehicle Commission office in Dayton about noon Feb. 2 on a report of a man refusing to remove the pasta strainer from his head to take his driver's license photo, NJ.com reported Wednesday.

The man, Aaron Williams, 25, said the pasta strainer was a religious head covering as he practices Pastafarianism, the religion of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

The satirical religion is a movement opposed to the teaching of intelligent design and creationism in schools.

Williams reluctantly agreed to have his picture taken without the strainer and deleted a video he had taken in violation of office rules.

Austrian Niko Alm, who described himself as a Pastafarian, won a three-year battle in his country to have his driver's license photo taken with a pasta strainer on his head.

If people can wear a jewish cap or any other religious head coverings for their photo IDs or DL pictures so should the guy be able to wear a pasta strainer. For those who think that the members of the church of the flying spagetthi monster are nuts, just look around. They are no nuttier than religiius people.

Satire is a very effective means of proving a point. It'd be foolish to discount it.

No, it is the fallacy of faulty analogy, it proves nothing; atheists like Michael Ruse who are worth their salt know this.

Seriously Statler, go get that baptism. Then you can stop being such a stick in the mud...

So caring about rationality is your definition of “being a stick in the mud”? It’s sad that’s not surprising in the slightest. The FSM is a faulty analogy, not only that but it’s also merely an appeal to ridicule, both are logically invalid, get some real arguments for once, I beg of you! :-P

No, taking a joke thread this seriously is you being a stick in the mud...
