November 18, 201510 yr A woman who belongs to the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is allowed to wear a pasta strainer on her head in her driver's license photo due to religious beliefs, the AP reports. Lowell, Mass., resident Lindsay Miller says wearing the colander allows her to express her beliefs, like other religions are allowed to do, according to AP. The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is a satirical movement promoting a lighthearted view of religion. Members of the church often are referred to as "Pastafarians." The Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles says usually head coverings are not permitted for license photos, but exceptions are made for religious beliefs, AP reports. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2015/11/16/church-flying-spaghetti- monster-massachusetts-religion/75862946/
