Editor,
I believe that creationism, evolution and the factual evidence of the Flying Spaghetti Monster should be taught in schools nationwide. My belief is that the Flying Spaghetti Monster is often an overlooked faith in American culture. We have fought hard to secure our place in this great land. It would be a shame to have the Flying Spaghetti Monster left out if evolution and creationism are taught side by side in American schools.
Some of you may not know who the Flying Spaghetti Monster, or Spaghedeity, as we like to call him, is. So, I will take a few moments to tell you about his utter awesomeness. The Flying Spaghetti Monster created God and the universe after drinking heavily. All evidence of evolution is a ploy by Spaghedeity to test mankind's faith. Heaven is a place of amazing beer volcanoes, and hell is much the same, but the beer is all flat.
The rules that we follow are called "The Eight I'd Really Rather You Didnt's."
Global warming is caused by the decline in pirates since the 1800s. These pirates aren't like the ones we have today. These are the fun-loving buccaneers from history whom many have labeled evil.
These are but a few of our beliefs. If you would like to know more, you can purchase The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, written by Spaghedeity through our founder, Prophet Bobby Henderson.

You may say my beliefs are just another religion, but you're wrong. Spaghedeism does not fit in with the common guidelines of creationism. It is absolutism. I believe the factual evidence of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, evolution and creationism should be taught in schools both fairly and evenly alike. Thank you, and hail the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
