- Chapter 1:1 - The Need for Alternative Theories , page 3
- Take gravity, for example: the force of attraction between massive
- particles. We know a great deal about the properties of gravity, yet we
- know nothing about the cause of the force itself. Why are particles attracted to one other? If we review the literature, we find a lot of material dealing with the properties of gravity, but very little dealing with the
- underlying cause of this attraction. Until we have a proven answer to
- this question, it seems irresponsible to instruct students in what is, ultimately, just a theory. However, if we must discuss the theory of gravity at all, then it's reasonable that all suggested theories should be given
- equal time, since none have been proven or disproven. Therefore, I formally submit that the Flying Spaghetti Monster is behind this strange and often misunderstood force.
- What if it is He, pushing us down with His Noodly Appendages, that
- causes this force? He is invisible, remember, and is undetectable by
- current instruments, so in theory it is possible. And the fact that the
- gravitational powers of the Spaghetti Monster haven't been disproven
- makes it all the more likely to be true. We can only guess as to His motives, but it's logical to assume that if He is going to such trouble, there
- is a good reason. It could be that He doesn't want us floating off earth
- into space, or maybe just that He enjoys touching us—we may never
- know.
