telegraph.co.uk— Women who dress "inappropriately" incite extramarital sex that in turn cause more earthquakes, a senior Iranian hard-line cleric has claimed.

Right. And therefore it's OK to beat the living f**k out of women, rape them, keep them pregnant, and at least as stupid as the men in the society. What a hideous religion as well as perverted religious leaders. No one should be defending this, or any other religion. Defend the right to to delusional beliefs, but you are not entitled to an exemption of mockery for them. This cleric is a contemptible and disrespectful person, and should be treated with contempt and disrespect.
So now when my wife has that post-coitus look of disappointment on her face I can tell her about how I just saved the world from an earth ending temblor.
Man, I want to go to Iran. Those women must #$@# like their lives depend on it....or it may possibly be the last time of doing it before getting stoned to death.
BEDEMIR: What makes you think she is a witch? VILLAGER #3: Well, she turned me into a newt. BEDEMIR: A newt? VILLAGER #3: I got better. VILLAGER #2: Burn her anyway! CROWD: Burn! Burn her! BEDEMIR: Quiet, quiet. Quiet! There are ways of telling whether she is a witch. CROWD: Are there? What are they? BEDEMIR: Tell me, what do you do with witches? VILLAGER #2: Burn! CROWD: Burn, burn them up! BEDEMIR: And what do you burn apart from witches? VILLAGER #1: More witches! VILLAGER #2: Wood! BEDEMIR: So, why do witches burn? [pause] VILLAGER #3: B--... 'cause they're made of wood...? BEDEMIR: Good! CROWD: Oh yeah, yeah... BEDEMIR: So, how do we tell whether she is made of wood? VILLAGER #1: Build a bridge out of her. BEDEMIR: Aah, but can you not also build bridges out of stone? VILLAGER #2: Oh, yeah. BEDEMIR: Does wood sink in water? VILLAGER #1: No, no. VILLAGER #2: It floats! It floats! VILLAGER #1: Throw her into the pond! CROWD: The pond! BEDEMIR: What also floats in water? VILLAGER #1: Bread! VILLAGER #2: Apples! VILLAGER #3: Very small rocks! VILLAGER #1: Cider! VILLAGER #2: Great gravy! VILLAGER #1: Cherries! VILLAGER #2: Mud! VILLAGER #3: Churches -- churches! VILLAGER #2: Lead -- lead! ARTHUR: A duck. CROWD: Oooh. BEDEMIR: Exactly! So, logically..., VILLAGER #1: If... she.. weighs the same as a duck, she's made of wood. BEDEMIR: And therefore--? VILLAGER #1: A witch!
Oh well, he could have blamed it on Israel. I guess in Ayatollah land that passes for progressive thinking. Hmm, not much different than here. Actually, I think he is a Zoroastrian 'cause he drives a Mazda. Maybe he is the Iranian equivalent of Fred Phelps, running around with "God hates earthquake" signs. Really, who cares what this dip stick thinks.
A lot of religious leaders in the Republican party claimed that the HIV virus that causes AIDS was invented by God to punish mankind for "sin" - the same sin the Catholic church is accused of throughout each year. In reality, the virus too came from monkeys, just like seven billion other things you see strolling about.Blaming random human actions for acts of nature is nothing new. It is the same principle taken in reverse as astrology is. There is an ancient roman or greek saying that goes roughly like "first this, then that". So even a few thousand years ago, people recognized that you would use this pseudo logic to make a slipshod argument and some people would actually fall for it.Some of our great ancestors would be proud we have continued their proud tradition. Other great ancestors would be proud we are carrying out their proud tradition. Lucky for us, some of them were smart. Not only that but they were honest not deceitful & manipulative.

Up next, the classroom pets we launched into space will engineer some nuclear weapons.

Anything below a 6.0 is consider as the neighbor just having rough sex.
