Gentlemen! Behold! The flying spaghetti monster!
 I saw this article in this week's Nature but I didn't pay much attention to it. What I didn't realize is that the authors apparently have a sense of humor and don't like ID either. Check out one of the first images they made with their new Bacteria film (image and article in the New Scientist)  It's the Flying Spaghetti Monster! I'm really impressed. We should encourage more scientists to figure out ways to mock ID with their data. I can't think for the life of me how I could manage it, it may have to remain a goal for materials scientists for now. |

I don't have a subscription to Nature so I can't see the pictures as they are in the article, but I assume the pic of the FSM came right out of it. Consequently, I think the picture used to support an article on the same topic at Al Jazeera.com might be going out on something of a limb.

It's funny, sometimes AL Jazeera gets something right waaaay in advance of it getting picked up by the US wires. Sometimes, like in this case, they act like country bumpkins.
