Which means that the Flying Spaghetti Monster is just as valid as any other ID hypothesis.

Absolutely. The FSM has as much support as alien designers of life who had to intervene as necessary (due to biological innovation supposedly being impossible without the intervention of a designer) in the history of life on Earth.

Those aliens must be busy folks. They recently allowed an e.coli to “innovate” and be able to metabolize citric acid. Several decades ago they had to give some bacteria the ability to digest nylon!

I would also add that the church of the FSM also has a very “credible” theory on Global Warming.

…global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters are a direct effect of the shrinking numbers of Pirates since the 1800s…As you can see, there is a statistically significant inverse relationship between pirates and global temperature.



If ID can be taught as science along with Al Gore’s Inconvenient Truth, then the FSM certainly has an equal place in any science curriculum.
