Ah, good old Islam. It makes sense, actually - the best way to circumvent a ridiculous rule is with an even more ridiculous solution!

At least: Egypt's minister of religious affairs, Mahmoud Zaqzouq, has called for future fatwas to "be compatible with logic and human nature".

I have a feeling that if they are, they'll be based significantly less heavily on Qur'an verses.

Elaine, glad you are keeping abreast of matters with a 3 year old news story. What was it you were looking for when you stumbled across that?

Wow... That has to got be the most ridiculous loophole to a ridiculous law that I've seen in a LONG time. I usually don't like to speak out against religion, but if their own disciples are trying this hard to circumvent the rules, MAYBE it's time to get with the 21st century and stop forcing women to wear blankets on their head... It's nof "cool" anymore... It never was.
Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

The equivalent of doddering judges who shouldn't be allowed out the house let alone in court?

Nah, not even judges... Just really corrupt lawyers.

It is hard to say which is more ridiculous, the original law, the work around, or the reactions to it. If the 5 breast feedings law is correct, why if the fatwa not correct? Is there another law that says breast feeding a man is non-natural and against logic, or whatever the Egyptian said? :rolleyes:
Opacity, the new Transparency.

So, hang on, let me get this... In order to stop women being molested by strangers they have to wear a veil unless they let the stranger suck their tits 5 times? Any wonder these people never got out of the middle ages.
Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription
