(KGTV) - Did a colander-wearing "Pastafarian" really give the opening prayer at a government meeting in Alaska?
Yes.
Pastafarian pastor Barrett Fletcher delivered the invocation before the Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly last Tuesday.
Pastafarians promote a light-hearted view of religion and oppose the teaching of creationism.
Last October, the Alaska Supreme Court ruled that invocations before government meetings couldn't be limited to official organizations.
Since then, a satanist and now a pastafarian have been given the honor.
