The fallout and reconstruction after the tsunami that devastated Indonesia is going at a snail's pace and many are trying to find someone or something to blame for the horror that has followed the disaster. Rather than giving the excuse that these events are natural causes an Islamic judge in the region is now found a scapegoat for the wave, women.
Yes women. According to the judge the Koran states that if the women are good the country is good. Nothing brings the wrath of the almighty more then sinning women. So now what are they doing to prevent another natural disaster? The police are rounding up women who don't wear their headscarfs or meet boys in private. They cut their hair and parade them up and down the streets humiliating them. Suspected drinkers, gamblers, and prostitutes get the same treatment. Some judges are calling for the age old customer of hand chopping thieves to be reinstated.
Nero blaming the Christians for the famous Roman fire apparently taught us nothing. If this judge's logic were correct why the hell has Las Vegas never experienced anything like this? You can pay a hottie to get naked and grind you for only $20 in the numerous strip clubs that clutter the city. Not that I would know mind you. This is just what I've heard.
"I write against the religion because if women want to live like human beings, they will have to live outside the religion and Islamic law." - Taslima Nasrin
Tsunami was God's revenge for your wicked ways, women told

I try to be tolerant of organized religion; to not outright hate it. I try not to be racist or biased. I try to be understanding about different cultures and viewpoints.
But they just keep making it so fucking hard to do.
