This week in superstition

A teenaged Muslim girl was stoned to death about a week ago.  She had participated in a beauty contest. 

An Egyptian general recently admitted that female anti-Mubarak protesters "had to submit to virginity tests."

An Iranian cleric has examined the Koran and determined that killing Israeli children is ok. 

The Reverend Doctor Albert Mohler of Southern (Baptist) Seminary in Louisville KY  has condemned the Presbyterians for ordaining gays and lesbians.

I love when you post things I can agree with whole-heartedly.

I came across your blog on reddit, and apparently we have a couple of facebook friends in common... Just wanted to stop by and let you know that. I appreciate knowing where other folks come to my blog from. :)

My question here is, as this is only the second post of yours I've read, I'm curious if this is an indicator that perhaps you are atheist? Or agnostic? Or maybe you just think folks take religion way too seriously?

Just curious. Thanks so much!

Lady,

On which gods do you want my opinions? There have been so, so many.

Not to be a party pooper or anything but this story is a fake.
