Uh Oh! Spagetti Oklahoma Monster!

His noodly appendage touched the Oklahoma State Legislature.

New legislation that just passed the Oklahoma House of Representatives requires that students are allowed to express their religious beliefs without penalty, even if they conflict with testable scientific facts. For example:

Standard Test Question: How old is the Earth?

Student from New Jersey: 4.3 Billion Years - CORRECT
Student from California: 6000 Years - INCORRECT
Student from Oklahoma: 6000 Years because the Bible Says So - INCORRECT CORRECT due to beliefs
Student from Oklahoma: 1 hour ago with our memories artificially added by the Flying Spagetti Monster - INCORRECT CORRECT due to beliefs

As long as a student can justify his incorrect answer with religion, he will receive credit for a correct response. I believe they also approved Dueling Banjos as the new state song.
