A Shiite Muslim woman holds a three-year old boy whose forehead was cut during a ceremony in Nabatiyeh on Sunday March 24, 2002. Hundreds of thousands of Shiite Muslims turned out across Lebanon on Sunday to mark Ashoura, the Shiite Muslim religious festival which marks the AD 680 battle in which Imam Hussein, the grandson of Islam's Prophet Mohammed, was killed.

These Muslims look an awful lot like Baal worshippers to me.

You, sir, are correct.

I think I would rather have my forehead lightly cut than my foreskin cut off.

Shiite muslim men whip themselves with knives attached to chains, in a self-flagellation ritual which left their backs dripping with blood, on a hill in Kabul, Afghanistan Sunday March 24, 2002. The men were marking the Shiite community's holiest day, Ashoura, the anniversary of the death of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the prophet Muhammad. The men cut themselves to atone for Imam Hussein's death. The ritual was being performed openly for the first time since the overthrow of the Taliban, which hadpreviously restricted celebrations of the holy day. (AP Photo/Greg Baker)

Anyone here care if the smirking, knife wielding freak in the above picture ends up as collateral damage?

Muslims do that too, of course, but not on babies, but on adolescents.

There are a few powerful lesbian advocates of diversity in this country, that one will react with a certain set of mixed emotions when the Muslims come in and subject them to clitor-id-ectomy.

This is what happens when nutcases claim to possess the true definition of God, while they hypocritically claim it is evil to draw his face on a picture. The result is that they can define good and evil as they wish. They are a reactionary religious cast of society that practices human sacrifices and that needs to be destroyed, utterly.
