The Flying Spaghetti Monster is the one true creator of the universe, may you feel his noodly appendages and be blessed. RAmen.
You can learn more about it here:

One of our main beliefs is that Gravity is just a theory, so we demand the teaching of alternative viewpoints to the theory of gravity. To this end, we propose the science of "Intelligent Falling" which claims that everything falling back to earth is really the FSM pushing us back down with His noodly appendages which are invisible and everywhere.
Also pirates are very important to Pastafarianism. There has been a strong correlation between the declining pirate population and the rise of global temperatures. So the lack of pirates is causing global warming! Pirates are the key to saving the planet.
Then the FSM has the best heaven out of all of them... boasting beer volcanos as far as the eye can see and a stripper factory.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster is the god of a spoof religion called Pastafarianism. The religion was founded as a protest against the required teaching of Intelligent Design in Kansas.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster was revealed to the Prophet Bobby Henderson in 2005, when Kansas wanted to included Creationism in it's state science standards. The idea of "equal time" for science and religion in the classroom caused Henderson to ask that his belief that the world was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster (the Noodly Creator) should be given equal time as well. He wrote a book called "The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster" and it's pretty funny.

It's the primary deity of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, which in itself is a parody religion that was started to protest the teaching of intelligent design over evolution in schools. If the schools wanted to teach ID as science, why not teach about a Flying Spaghetti Monster, as well?

The Flying Spaghetti Monster is a parody religion used to fight the teachings of intelligent design instead of biological evolution.

It's god. The Flying Spaghetti Monster is the creator of everything. Everyone should be touched by his Noodly Appendage and saved. Doesn't everyone want to go to heaven? In heaven, the Flying Spaghetti Monster provides for us beer volcanoes and stripper factories.

Add to several good posts above:
In order to discourage parody religions Kansas Ed posted certain requirement for the intelligent design to ensure that it would be Christianity that was taught in the classroom. FSM meets all of those standards and more.
