It's not very frequent, but it happens. And there are groups that have the potential to be very violent in the name of Christianity (Hutaree, anyone?) Just google "Christian Patriots" and "Christian Identity".

Somebody tried to take my bacon, and I was ready to stab them through the heart with my cereal spoon. People will always find reasons to kill.

yes - but it was over bacon so it's okay. MFers should know better than to mess with bacon-ny goodness. Wait - what thread is this?

They also cut the female staffer in the back out.

As if we needed further proof that the Taliban do not share our values.

The paper has responded, saying they just shouldn't have printed the photo at all. And that, as a rule, never print any photos of women...which does not indicate any lower status for women.

Of course, as absurd as that sounds, in their minds it's true, because the whole mindset behind the separation of men and women in orthodox judaism is that men are incapable of not being distracted by women, so, to be sure that men can continue to operate at peek efficiency, they need to be protected from exposure to women at all costs.

Yes, I'm serious.

Of course, while they are busy thinking that they're not denigrating women because, really, it's a commentary on how fallible men are, they are missing the fact that it rather does denigrate women since it says that everything must be structured around making sure that MEN are able to work without distraction, lest society fall apart. Because clearly without clear-headed men, society couldn't possibly operate.

And the Taliban are to the same effect: they're actually protecting women from committing the crime of being raped.

The only man with a big beard and a funny outfit that I trust is Brian Wilson, and that can change at a moment's notice.

Weird. I'm so glad I live here.

Now translate that to when a government says it's protecting its people by taking away their freedoms...
