Outrage.

Anti Flying Spaghetti Monster cartoon sparks global outrage.

FSM SNM

A cartoonist known only as LB, has created outrage over a crewdly drawn image depicting a drugged Flying Spaghetti Monster urinating over a crucified Jesus.

"I'm outraged" claims one Pastafarian. "It's outrageous that this could be published - where is censorship when you need it?" Blatantly anti-spaghetti is the term that has sprung up over the image. Moderate Pastafarians have noted the images accuracy, had a little chuckle, and returned to their daily lives.

However, with the image found on the worldwide web, fundamentalists of the FSM faith have begun attacking random computer servers, and other telephony devices in retribution- including one case of an enraged man throwing rocks at an over-head coaxial cable. "If this doesn't teach that Internet a lesson against blaspheming the one true faith, I'm not sure what will" he responded when queried by authorities.

Christian fundamentalist groups have met to decide on whether to be outraged or no. At the time of print, it is believed they had decided to flip a coin on the matter.

As a nation, we were grossly offended when some thugs decided to pull down and defile the Australian flag in retaliation for the Cronulla riots. We value our flag and are offended when it is insulted. It isn't just a piece of cloth. Similarly, Muslims get offended when one of their Prophets is lampooned. Some of them are reacting in a stupid and counterproductive fashion. But that doesn't make publication of the cartoons right. – Media McMullah.

It doesn't seem long since Christmas, but February is here and the school year (in most states) has started.
