"2/10/06 - World-famous scientist and writer Richard Dawkins speaks out about the Flying Spaghetti Monster, and our responsibility to provide evidence of His existance. "...
"It is just on the evidence. it certainly is not a matter of faith. I mean - if one is trying to make the case that it takes as much faith to be an atheist as to be a believer, then you would have to say that is true of anything one might postulate, not just the God of the Bible, but Thor and Wotan and Apollo and the Flying Spaghetti Monster. In all those things, you can not actually disprove, but I don't think anybody would want to say that it's a matter of faith that there is no such thing as the Flying Spaghetti Monster. The onus is on the people who want to believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster to find evidence that [He] is there."
