Summary: Many people around the world believe that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. This book explains all. You are encouraged to read the gospel and compare it to other theories, like Intelligent Design or the theory of Evolution and decide for yourself what makes the most sense.

Review
Ever since I found the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster I've been intrigued by the enthousiasm of the congregation, so of course I had to study its origins. The gospel was written as a very elaborate spoof on Intelligent Design, but from where I'm sitting this 'theory' is a clever analogy to any belief system. If you are willing to accept a less serious point of view, you will enjoy this. I recommend this book to everyone who wants to think outside the box.
