    That's just their culture Dave, and it's different, but who are you to judge what's wrong? (sarcasm)

    Their culture is to mutilate the genitals and then fill the body with chemicals which renders it infertile. And you are defending this? Yes, I say it is wrong. Who am I? you ask. I am someone who is against the maltreatment of children, who are you?

      I hope you realized I was being sarcastic and imitating a similar response you got yesterday when speaking up about some traditions... I did put (sarcasm) in there.

        I just wish the people that lived in the west that admire these countries and want the west to be more like them would go and live in those countries - see how they like living in third world squalor.

        Theocratic shitholes should be banned from receiving aid or trade. It seems harsh, but every advanced country got there by having a revolution and throwing out the wankers. Britain had several, and as a bonus, sent all our criminals to Australia and all our religious nutters to America.

                  Clearly, they spend too much time being nice to the invisible man in the sky, and not enough time being nice to each other. I have a theory as to why people in our countries aren't that nuts... It's not that we have less religious folk, but that we have enough different KINDS of religious folk, all disagreeing on which deities to worship and rules to follow, that no single religion can assert total control. So it's our division that makes us sane(r), and their unity that makes them crazy.

                              Tobacco and alcohol both affect sperm and egg production. There's some argument about how much alcohol is needed to start impacting egg production but in men alcohol intake results in a rise in estrogen levels which reduces sperm count and it acts as a toxin, killing sperm in the testicles.

                                      They lack the hypocrisy to call themselves religious and behave as though they aren't.

                                          Religion is a concept used to ward off insanity, and frankly, it doesn't bloody work.

                                          Nope, it's a way to control people, and it works just fine. If the people in control are sane or not is a completely different question...
