Reply With QuoteThis is truly a case of stupidity on the court's part and mockery on the applicant's part. I have very little respect for an atheist who acts like an asshole and this guy is definitely one.

I think this is funny but I think it's also kind of ridiculous that the courts are so lacking of any common sense that money was wasted on bringing it to court.
BBC News - Austrian driver allowed 'pastafarian' headgear photo
An Austrian atheist has won the right to be shown on his driving-licence photo wearing a pasta strainer as "religious headgear".
Niko Alm first applied for the licence three years ago after reading that headgear was allowed in official pictures only for confessional reasons.
Mr Alm said the sieve was a requirement of his religion, pastafarianism.
Later a police spokesman explained that the licence was issued because Mr Alm's face was fully visible in the photo.

I strain to see the problem here.

Eh, it's part of what insecure atheists do. They aren't comfortable with their beliefs so they attack other's beliefs. That aside, I think this is funny and those with religion need to grow a thicker skin.

He was probably just feeling cannelloni.

It is funny in a way but at the same time, atheists like him are aggravating because of their disrespect. We have a few on here that are like this guy and we have/had a few who I enjoyed conversing with because they can present their case without mocking with things like "imaginary friend", "psychological problem if you believe", etc. People who do that are simply jerks and not worth dealing with.

Considering how hard it can be to discern the idiots among us, do we really want to discourage this sort of thing.
The fireworks really begin when he presents his ID for employment, and the HR person changes their mind.

I'm with you. It sure seems holy enough to me.

It's been a long time since we had a good thread derail, according to my colandar.

He's mocking half-assed government policy reactions to religion.

Very funny. This guy is an atheist with a great sense of humor.I think this is funny but I think it's also kind of ridiculous that the courts are so lacking of any common sense that money was wasted on bringing it to court.
