Amanda in Chicago hey Amanda thanks to listen CBT what's up
ojai term I'm great how are you
I'm I equal yep excellent well I just want to say I have been a pasta sorry in
for many years now
hmm and I'm rather offended that the your other callers dismissing our
religion
we r legitimate believers I'll are the Flying Spaghetti Monster if you look at
my car got a little
Chinese Flying Spaghetti Monster on the on the bumper and
I have also been known to wear my religious headgear
out in public a you might think it is a process trainer but it is our
official religious headgear up on safari in israel is very real
yeah a why I understand there are over ten million people who call themselves
past variance
well they're actually I was with president for our recognition as a
religion
I will either the case in Australia where I one of our members
wanted to wear his religious headgear in this photo ID
for a driver's license and they said he couldn't because it was a pasta strainer
and he said no this is said you're my people
and I he fought anyone yeah legal
ID recover that starr & near here that was just a few months ago wasn't your
last year
arm altered last year I'm but I I'm just I'm here and I'm feeling that people are
thinking that possible realism
was created just because I love this Hobby Lobby case but it's not we are now
illegitimate we have been here and I also am a small business owner
on and based on the Hobby Lobby ruling I have decided that John
my employees are no longer allowed to stand any portion of their paycheck
on gluten-free products all this is very offensive to
too far past various and and I have celiac disease
start I have celiac disease Amanda Weir
we are in conflict here well I'm terribly sorry but you cannot work my
company or if you choose to you can pay for your own gluten-free products yeah I
we all care
I'm not paying for it now so you may not use any portion of money that I K
well and I know you're not that makes that makes perfect sense and and so if I
E
for people who don't know celiac disease is it's a genetic condition
that typically flips on either at birth
we used to call these children failure to thrive babies I
or around the age of 50 oddly enough it seems to
and usually follows a about a food poisoning which is what happened with
the effect was the year I turned 50 was 9/11
and I was an Australian I got a really really bad case of food poisoning
from from being up in the locker River you know from river water
and well there aren't very many have you so we don't really worry about it yeah
yeah but I so when I eat when I gluten its
it's like other people getting you know love the
really bad food poisoning and gluten is the
essential protein in pasta in week so your religion
is my medical problem well yes but that's not my problem
CME we're not quite ready for you take care your problem I mean just because
you have
I'll you know this this problem in you weren't even born when it may have been
something you chose for all we know
so we're not gonna I know I was I was definitely born with my wife
my father is for border region and its it's so common in Norway that they test
children a berth for this
over well again I can accept bank science right problem so anybody coming
to my company in demanding
that they be able to use that portion of their paycheck for for
for that that and than something I think and you probably wouldn't pay for mine
for the medical testing when I've when I first discovered it took a a year for me
to discover this I lost 30 pounds
I was bleeding out from the second call ask be that the
I'm sure I my the and test and I mean it was a
I don't get in all a great details but it was really bad before I figured out
that
I just had to stop eating gluten and sorry but really there wouldn't be my
problem is how are your past you would not pay for any other
yeah no I would not my problem alright I mean if if your body chooses to reject
the holy body of
for his noodly appendage that is really not something I can control
so that is not something I want to pay for I understand understand well
its you know I don't think I have any silly employees but
if I did it would be a good thing that I'm not a Pastafarian right although I
respect much difference no
no no insult intended you should and you should and we do believe that
historian creating the earth in the trees and the major entire it should be
taught alongside creationism
I'll along with the story of the turtles and the
are the journals and your be on the back of the greater like to win and many
other creations
very valid creation story as long as they're tried alongside
the story I'll I'll up the Flying Spaghetti Monster yes
problem absolutely with little with that i i agree with you i think that we need
a
we need to be teaching comparative religion arm in comparative religion
class
and science and science class and comment okay
Rahman I Amanda spoken like a true bust a very special for the clock
