I think you have misunderstood the Pastafarians, their goal is to get publicity for the utterly ridiculous accommodations given to religious wingnuts. They started out after Kansas passed an "equal time" law for teaching evolution and creationism, and the founder of Pastafarianism popped up to demand that time be given to teaching the Pastafarian creation myth.

In short the Pastafarians are fighting on the front lines to expose stupidity in the name of religion, when the government has thrown in the towel and some politicians actually support this lunacy.

It's the same as the Satanic Temple guys who go around trying to use religious exemption laws to annoy the evangelicals.

Thank you. Yes, quite frankly I had misunderstood the Pastafarians and the tenets of their "secular religion." I wonder, who is the Keeper of the First Pasta recipe? Was the First Noodle a product of creation, did it evolve, or was it the gift of aliens, presented to mankind whole, of the finest and purest durum wheat? Only in America.

My Colonel, you really seem to know your Pastafarian. Are you a recent convert, by any chance.
