Flying Spaghetti Monster Vatican Recognition Shocks Theologians

In a surprise ecumenical gesture, Pope Leo XIV formally recognized the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster as a �whimsically devout sibling in the faith buffet.� The Flying Spaghetti Monster Vatican announcement caused mass confusion, followed by pasta-themed liturgical memes. The Pope stated, �If God can appear in bread and wine, why not meatballs and marinara?� Cardinals are divided�some delighting in the sauce of salvation, others praying for gluten clarity. Vatican gift shops now carry edible rosaries.
