Ye Religion Thread

A very brave kid....who dares to not wear a veil in Yemen because "she likes to breathe the fresh air".

Brave, indeed.

Someone posted an update on the girl's situation, from the liner notes of the film:

"Q: First and foremost—a year later—how and where is Nejmia? Do you keep in touch with her? What is she like now? What has been the effect of this documentary on Nejmia? On the town?

KHADIJA AL-SALAMI: Seven months after shooting the film, Nejmia’s father stopped her from going to school and ordered her to wear the veil. A year later, this film won first prize at the Beirut Film Festival. The president of Yemen was visiting France at that time and heard about the prize. He asked me to show him the film. I thought he would not like it because it shows society looking down on women, but I was wrong. He was drawn by Nejmia’s personality, and at the end of the film he asked me to tell Nejmia’s family that he would like to pay for her education. I was very happy to hear that and thought that was the best prize I could ever get for the film. Now, Nejmia is back at school. I think it is the most important element for a better and independent future. The more a woman is educated, the more she knows her rights and is able to defend them, the more useful she will be to her family and to society as a whole. The film was not screened on Yemeni TV because they are not accustomed to such controversial subject matter."

I got a question.
What do you think would be the implications, with regards to religion, if in the near future,  science would be able to discover that there are other civilizations out there in the universe?

[|iR|Focalor]

I believe that Christians would try to convert them, the Pope would visit them and they'd pretend to give a fuck, and the Muslims in the middle east would try to blow them up. They'd come to the conclusion that we're all so fucking crazy that we're too dangerous to mess with, they'd get in their time machines, and go back to before they let us find out about their existence and keep it that way.

Boobquake fails to destroy planet
Jubs versus Iranian cleric: Immodesty vindicated

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/04/26/boobquake/

Planet Earth has not (yet) been destroyed by today's terrifying Boobquake experiment - one Indiana student's response to Iranian cleric Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi's insistence that immodestly dressed women provoke earthquakes.

Sedighi recently declared: "Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupting their chastity and spread adultery in society, which increases earthquakes."

Well, Jennifer McCreight decided to put this to the test, and attempt a critical mass of immodesty primarily involving a load of women flashing a Richter-tempting amount of jub.

Jennifer McCreightShe declared: “On Monday, April 26th, I will wear the most cleavage-showing shirt I own. Yes, the one usually reserved for a night on the town. I encourage other female skeptics to join me and embrace the supposed supernatural power of their breasts. Or short shorts, if that's your preferred form of immodesty. With the power of our scandalous bodies combined, we should surely produce an earthquake.”

Have you actually tried this Gudelos stuff yet? I've had Samuel Smith imperial stout before, wasn't too impressed with it, although I do normally like stout. Stout is more of a "let's see how fast we can chug" kinda beer for me. If you can appreciate the taste of it, it goes down a lot smoother and quicker than anything else. Not my favorite type of brew though, I always prefer a hefeweissen or european style pilsner to anything else.

I like beck's and stella, I really like all beers very much.  heineken tastes very good to me even though that is supposedly the worst brewed beer.

 

[|iR|Focalor]

Heineken is the worst? Who the fuck said that? Heineken kicks the shit out of any major domestic. It's good stuff, although I like the Heineken Dark better. In my opinion, the title of "worst beer" would be held by Schlitz. Then again, I also think that most annheiser-busch and miller brews would run a close 2nd by a mere cunt hair.

I would say coors light is the worst beer because it tastes like water although I like that as well.
