Austrian man wins right to wear sieve on drivers license

[Doink]

The atheist says he belongs to the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, with followers labelling themselves ‘Pastafarians’.
After discovering headgear was allowed in official pictures for ‘confessional’ reasons, Alm decided a pasta strainer would be a suitable representation of his faith.
He promptly sent off his driving licence application form along with some photos of himself sporting a colander headpiece.

Initially authorities were unconvinced by the application, asking the eccentric entrepreneur to be assessed by a doctor to see if he was mentally fit to drive.
But, three years later, they have come round to his way of thinking, with Alm being sent his brand new driving licence in the post.
But after this victory, Niko has a new campaign in his sights - he now wants to get Pastafarianism to become an officially recognised faith in Austria.

I don't think this guy quite understands what he is doing, he is actually starting a religion which basically goes against what he says he believes in.

As for the sieve on his head, no headgear should be allowed to be worn in official documents like this, you shouldn't be able to hide any of your face since this is done for identification purposes.

Finally! A religion I can get behind!
