Albeit it doesn't include all religions but 345 people died because of your stupid pilgramage ritual.

you know how muslims pray towards mecca........well, if they're in mecca, where do they aim?

1/12/2006 3:43:40 PM

I bet that all those people who died in that nightclub stampede a few years back were devout, too.

1/12/2006 3:44:39 PM

here's a well presented documentary on why religion is stupid
http://onegoodmove.org/1gm/1gmarchive/002764.html
(listen to or download the audio portion that's 50 minutes long, not just the short video clip, which is one of the weaker segments I think).
heres a torrent http://www.mininova.org/tor/195488
and some other video clips - http://tauquil.com/archives/2006/01/12/is-religions-the-root-of-all-evil/

THEY WORSHIP AN XBOX

^ nice.

As a practical joke, we should replace that box with a similarly shaped giant Jack in the box and put a likeness of W in there and then let it rip next year during hajj. I guess that would be a W-In-The-Box.

it would be entertaining.

that large black box makes me think of the 2001 a space odyssey obelisk

i just don't understand how people can be so passionate about something they don't even know exists, and probably doesn't exist.

1/13/2006 9:03:51 PM
