the flaw in the spaghetti

Sue, my wife, often goes to Panda's Thumb, a site that talks about Evolution and other 'theories' about the existence of Humanity that have been proposed as alternatives to Darwin's. There is, for example, the Creation by the Flying Spaghetti Monster. But there is a fatal flaw in that theory, one that both Official Science and the Bible literalists could use to demolish it, consigning it to the oblivion it richly deserves.

On March 22, Panda's Thumb posted an item taken from the online edition of South Carolina's Greenville News. In it, a Bible literalist pointed out the following:

The theory of evolution does not and cannot explain so much about the universe that we know.

After that incisive comment, the writer went on to ask:

For instance, when and how did water evolve?

That led me to the realization that the Universe couldn't possibly have been created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. To make spaghetti, one needs water. And, as physicist Stephen Hawking might ask, which came first? The spaghetti or the water?
