And this is what it has come to, folks....

 

BOSTON (AP) - A Massachusetts agency is letting a woman who belongs to the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster wear a colander on her head in her driver's license photo after she cited her religious beliefs.

 

Lowell resident Lindsay Miller said Friday that she "absolutely loves the history and the story" of Pastafarians, whose website says has existed in secrecy for hundreds of years and entered the mainstream in 2005.

 

Miller says wearing the spaghetti strainer allows her to express her beliefs, like other religions are allowed to do.

 

A spokesman for the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles says policy does not permit head coverings or hats on license photos, but exceptions are made for religious reasons.

 

Lawyer Patty DeJuneas calls Pastafarianism a "secular religion that uses parody to make its point."

 

 

That is awesome.

I can't stop laughing at the absurdity of it.

This.

 

I can't wrap my head around the fact that this is serious. :lol2:

Love it!

Funny stuff. However, I would not want to be her if she's ever pulled over for suspected DWI.

In case anyone wants to be ordained a Pastafarian minister, the cost is $25!

One day the Church won't be able to push the Government around any longer. When that day comes there won't be anymore of these absurd photos. Or in God We Trust on our money, license plates, etc.

 

I love it!

My colander would need to look a bit more like a tiara!

I'm going to demand when they take my next driver's license pic that they take the back of my head, no face. I'm sure somewhere in the family lineage there were some Amish.

 

This is so stupid, you just can't make this stuff up!

Hope it never leaves my Federal Reserve Notes. IN GOD I TRUST. We'll agree to disagree on that one.

I am afraid it is going to have to be all or nothing.
