Score one for the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

When Niko Alm, an Austrian member of the U.S. based atheist group, presents his driver's license from now on, it will show him wearing a pasta strainer on his head.

Alm told Austrian officials the headgear was a requirement of the "pastafarian' faith.

The BBC reports he was allowed to wear the strainer for the photo because his "face was fully visible in the photo." Alm was, however, required to submit a doctor's certificate affirming he was "psychologically fit" to drive a car.

Alm first applied for the license three years ago in response to the Austrian government allowing confessional headgear in ID photographs.

The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, a tongue-in-cheek organization that satirizes organized religion, touted Alm's win on its website this week.

Alm told Austrian news agencies his next step will be to petition for pastafarianism to be recognized as an official religion.

Do you ever think some stories just don't need to be reported, or is it just a real slow news day?

I'm confused: Is he an Atheist or a Pastafarian?

Following the naming convention of Rastfarians, I would assume that a Pastfarian eats pasta in order to commune with God?

To avoid confusion, I think they should be recognized as "Pasteists".

In other words all they want to do is tell jokes?
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.
