Have you shown your support for freedom? Have you stood up for your rights lately? Have you added it to your blog, Facebook page or website yet? The New York Slimes Times is too respectful to fearful of Islam to do so. Are you afraid to post it? I am but I posted it anyway. Then again, the difference between me and those killed recently is that I intend to fight back if I have the chance.
Hat tip to Aaron for his post as being my inspiration.

This one is for Wirecutter, in light of one of his recent posts. He'll understand.

...is apparent in the latest ruling by Sheikh Mohammed Saleh al-Munajjid, a prominent Saudi cleric, that building snowmen is sinful and against Muslim teachings because man cannot make that which has a soul. In his ruling he stated that: "God has given people space to make whatever they want which does not have a soul, including trees, ships, fruits, buildings and so on," he wrote in his ruling."

I find myself asking, since when does a snowman have a soul! In answer to myself, I guess since we live in Bizarro World with thinking like that, especially when others of his faith showed support for his ruling:
"It (building snowmen) is imitating the infidels, it promotes lustiness and eroticism,"
"May God preserve the scholars, for they enjoy sharp vision and recognize matters that even Satan does not think about." (Source)
Can you imagine a snowman or snowwoman promoting lustiness and eroticism. I think a snowwoman would be a bit too cold me to get me all fired up in the lust department. The absolutely perverted view of the rest of the world that this type of Muslim cleric has is truly bizarre and never ceases to amaze and disgust me.
