Islamic city council bans loud farts by women in Indonesia.

"Muslim women are not allowed to fart with sound," So you're a woman and need to pass some gas? Convert to atheism for a minute, pass gas, feel free to convert back (but I wouldn't really recommend that, converting every time is a waste of mental effort)

Kudos to the person who can accurately predict the dB level of impending flatulence, lord knows I can't!
from the article:
the offender could receive 20 lashes for small farts and up to 3 months prison time for larger ones.
I can't imagine the debate that's going to determine what constitutes larger and smaller farts, I wonder if the Comedy Channel could get the rights to broadcast it.
It was a different company, but essentially a Comedy Channel-like organization wrote (made-up) the article in the first place. Think of Onion News. So, if you can imagine a thousand forum threads smouldering like this one, you've already imagined said debate.

Female farts should be smelled and not heard[^] says Sayyid Yahia, mayor of the city.

Okay, I get that it's a joke site. But the question we need to ask ourselves is why do so many people find it believable? Is it because they are suckers or because this sort of law is what we've come to expect from an extremely ridiculous part of the world?

That is legislation I could get behind.

I don't want to live in a world where you cannot murder atheists. They kinda have it coming, IMHO.
I am an atheist. I choose not to believe in sky pixies, and do not require the scribblings of bronze age peasants to explain the workings of the world. Also, people who are so mentally retarded that they need to talk to imaginary friends are the kind that going around killing people.

It's well known that women do not fart: they just expel the ghosts of past meals.

It's a parody but given that some Islamic hell holes call for people to be murdered who have been raped or changed their mind about sky pixies it is hardly surprising.

It might be rants like this that make some people think atheists have it coming. There's no need to bully the people who believe in bronze age sky pixies, Dionysus the god of wine, or Xenu. Also, there are lots of children with imaginary friends and/or intellectual disabilities who never go around killing people. Though you might not know that from drinking Mountain Dew in your parents' basement.

You didn't use the joke icon but for some strange reason this made me laugh anyway.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Dave mate, people don't want to do you in because of your belief system. ;P
I was brought up to respect my elders. I don't respect many people nowadays.

I got that but I thought my response was pretty amusing. A really smelly fart can take your breath away and it would be an incredibly ignorant thing to try to legislate. I guess if it went over your head... :-)
