Will this oppression of religious minorities never end.....

"The Dutch council of state has ruled that Pastafarianism is not a religion, denying a follower of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster the right to wear a colander on her head in her passport and driving licence photo."

I was going to say 'religion' but didn't want everyone to be after me.
