Does the U.S. Census ask about religion?

Honestly, I don't know. I thought it did, but perhaps my memory is mistaken.

In any case, it's a good idea. Maybe we could write in "Pastafarian" as our race.

Not a bad idea. I prefer putting "Human" as my race, since any other "race" is just a social construct, IMO. But, since that's the case, I might consider putting "pirate". LOL!

Ooh, good call! Now I'm torn between putting "Atheist" or "Pastafarian."

I fear however that writing it in, we'd have to be very specific. Otherwise we'd get mistaken for "Rastafarians."

Ohhh I hate that one. Stupid Rastafarians playing off our name...
