The Flying Spaghetti Monster

[Dr B]

A well known skeptical concept. Does anyone know who first proposed it and could anyone provide some references and nice discussions about it?

I think it is an excellent example of why woo-logic is flawed. O0

Great site

I thought it had been around longer than this (it says 2005) on the website.....is this website the base for those who generated the concept or just a website that is running with it????

The FSM originated in the letter from Bobby Henderson to the Kansas School Board here (http://"http://www.venganza.org/about/open-letter/"). I thought it had been around longer as well, but it is his website, so I suppose he knows better than me. ???

No, it all exploded onto the scene last year, I remember it well.

It's great that it is so big now that it seems like it's been around for ages though. Even Dawkins mentioned it :D
