It all began in June 2005 when Bobby Henderson wrote an open letter to the Kansas School Board proposing a third alternative to the teaching of evolution & intelligent design in schools. Bobby is a prophet of sorts the spiritual leader of a growing world-wide group of followers who worship the teachings of The Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM). The FSM appeared to Bobby as a giant ball of spaghetti with meatballs for eyes & touched Bobby with His noodly appendage"
- resulting in the revelation that the FSM is the real creator of the universe. The FSM faithful look to Bobby as their prophet & spiritual leader. Shortly after Bobbys revelation a website (www.flyingspaghettimonster.org) came into existence to promote the word. Then came the articles which were worldwide: The New York Times The Washington Post The Guardian (UK) Die Welt (Germany) Surprise (Austria) & many others chimed in to report the existence of the FSM. Bobby received letters of support from academics & Kansas School Board members alike
- not to mention a couple million hits per day on the website
- & it was all-too-clear that there needed to be a book to lay out FSM scripture rites & observances proofs & answers to the Big Questions. This is that book."

The gospel writers were masters of ' Midrash' a popular literary technique in the ancient Jewish world. Midrash enables authors to promote their ideas by weaving them into well known biblical themes. The gospels contain coded midrashic messages that would have resonated with their contemporary Jewish audience.

The failure of Jesus' revolution came about not with his crucifixion but long before with the imprisonment & subsequent execution of John the Baptist the only qualifying candidate for high office in the revolutionary scheme. From this time forward Jesus & his disciples faced an uphill struggle. Their ultimate demise was inevitable & Jesus knew this as the narrative bears out." ...
