Austrian Atheist Wins Right To Wear Spaghetti Strainer As Religious Headgear

An Austrian man has won a three-year battle with authorities and now has a drivers license in which he is wearing a spaghetti strainer as religious headgear, the BBC reports.

The only headgear allowed in Austrian ID Cards are ones worn for religious purposes.

Niko Alm claimed the strainer was a requirement of his religion, The Church of the Flying Spaghetti monster, or pastafarianism.

The only dogma of the parody-religion is "the rejection of all dogma," and pastafarianism came out as a protest when the Kansas School Board ruled in 2005 that intelligent design can be taught in schools.

Niko Alm applied to be able to wear a spaghetti strainer on his license like members of any other faith are allowed to wear their head-coverings.

I take issue with the way they call him an Atheist.
Sure it's a bit silly but Dude, at least it's an ethos.
He identifies as Pastafarian.

What if he is right and the noodle is what it is all about? Your Noodle my Noodle all the Noodles in one big giant colander where only light and noodles can escape .... maybe a little water .... don't you hate it one one of them slippery little noodles jumps out of the colander and runs down the drain making the perfect getaway...... myself I still think it is all about ....

I wonder if this means I can finally get my driver's license picture taken with me hoisting up a white russian?

  I myself prefer the following headgear (keep aliens from getting into your mojo)...........

That would be rather interesting when you get pulled over by a cop. Possibly use an oat soda instead to make it a little more clear.

I guess Colorado is pushing for full legalization of marijuana. you could have your license taken with a J if it passes.
