Pastafarian Theocracy

Pastafarian Theocracy is a Progressive,  Satirist movement meant to satirize  Creationalists, which originated as an opposition to the teaching of intelligent design in public schools. It promotes a light-hearted view on religion, jokingly (or not?) believing in the existence of a "Flying Spaghetti Monster" as the supreme deity.

Rejection of Dogma
Pastafarian Theocracy believes that the only dogma allowed to exist within the Church is that everyone should reject dogma, though Pastafarian Theocracy did later add other Tenets.

Creation Myth
In the begining an invisible and undetectable Flying Spaghetti Monster created the universe after drinking heavily, but due to how intoxicated the Flying Spaghetti Monster was when the earth was created it was flawed. Furthermore, the Flying Spaghetti Monster also planted all evidence of evolution in order to test the Pastafarians. When scientific measurements such as radiocarbon dating are taken, the Flying Spaghetti Monster "is there changing the results with His Noodly Appendage.

The Afterlife
The Pastafarian conception of Heaven includes a beer volcano and a stripper (or sometimes prostitute or paint stripper) factory. The Pastafarian Hell is similar, except that the beer is stale and the strippers have sexually transmitted diseases.

Holidays
Pastafarian beliefs extend into lighthearted religious ceremony. Pastafarians celebrate every Friday as a holy day. Prayers are concluded with a final declaration of affirmation, "R'amen" (or "rAmen"); the term is a parodic portmanteau of the terms "Amen" and "Ramen", referring to instant noodles and to the "noodly appendages" of their deity. The celebration of "Pastover" requires consuming large amounts of pasta, and during "Ramendan," only Ramen noodles are consumed; International Talk Like a Pirate Day is observed as a holiday. Around the time of Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa, Pastafarians celebrate a vaguely defined holiday named "Holiday." Holiday does not take place on "a specific date so much as it is the Holiday season, itself", and has no requirements as Pastafarians reject dogma and formality. Pastafarians celebrate Holiday in any manner they please. They interpret the increasing usage of "Happy Holidays," rather than more traditional greetings (such as "Merry Christmas"), as support for Pastafarianism. Pastafarians are among those who celebrate International Talk Like a Pirate Day on September 19, as they believe pirates were "fun-loving buccaneers" and the original Pastafarians, that have been wronged by lying Christian theologians in the Middle Ages.

History
The Flying Spaghetti Monster was first mentioned in a satirical open letter written by physics graduate Bobby Henderson to protest the Kansas State Board of Education decision to permit teaching intelligent design as an alternative to evolution in public school science classes. In the letter, Henderson demanded equal time in science classrooms for "Flying Spaghetti Monsterism", alongside intelligent design and evolution. After Henderson published the letter on his website, the Flying Spaghetti Monster rapidly became an Internet phenomenon and a symbol of opposition to the teaching of intelligent design in public schools.
