Muslim cleric: If women touch bananas they might get ideas - Polidicks

[quote]Media reports are circulating that an unidentified Muslim cleric in Europe issued a ban on women touching fruits and vegetables such as bananas, cucumbers, carrots and zucchinis because they "resemble the male penis." According to the Egyptian news website Bikya Masr, the cleric, whose diktat was featured in an article on a religion website, el-Senousa, said that "if women wish to eat these food items, a third party, preferably a male related to them such as their father or husband should cut the items into small pieces and serve" it to them. GlobalPost has not independently verified this story, and there is now speculation circulating online that the story may be false. A Canadian news site, Straight.com, questions if the story is legit. According to the article in bikyamasr.com, the story originally appeared on something called “el-Senousa news”, but good luck finding it. In fact, a Google search for “el-Senousa news” only points back—many times over—to the article in bikyamasr.com. According to the Times of India, liberal Muslims are fairly enraged and embarrassed by the reports. As TOI points out, "repression of women in ultra-conservative Islamic societies has been an intense subject of debate throughout the world." The International Business Times reported that the sheikh's comment has become a target of online mockery. "Many of the commentators are Muslims themselves, who have expressed their anger against the cleric for making Islamic religious practices appear unreasonable," the IBT reported. The cleric's alleged words come after a "scholarly" report by the Majlis al-Ifta al-Aala, Saudi Arabia's highest Islamic council, warned that if women in Saudi Arabia were allowed to drive, there would be no more virgins in the country because driving may lead to a "surge in prostitution, pornography, homosexuality and divorce."[/quote] [url]http://www.globalpost.com/dispatches/globalpost-blogs/weird-wide-web/muslim-cleric-bans-women-touching-bananas[/url] :downs: it may be false but I won't be surprised if it isn't

im not sure how to describe my thoughts on this "what" would be one of them

lol

Words cannot describe the stupidity. I just...I sat here for five minutes with my hands on the keyboard trying to think of something, and I couldn't. Not even a shitty pun. That's not a good sign.

We should outlaw and ban the bananas! We must keep these blasphemous thoughts away from our women!

makes about as much sense as [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2z-OLG0KyR4[/media]

They can touch my banana.

I heard this was an honest to goodness fatwa.

The funniest part is that I wouldn't even be surprised if this is for real. It's fucking ridiculous how much women get oppressed by ignorant backwards fucks like this guy or the "Virtue and Vice Committee" in Saudi Arabia.

Better ban lines. All buildings cannot be more than four stories. All balls must be made square.

With this rate they ban women and everyone turns gay

i touched a banana once then i got an idea, maybe i should eat the banana it was delicious

Oh boy.

Yeahhh baby you like how I peel this banana don't you Mmm yeah peel it all slow like Just like your dick, mmm baby [editline]9th December 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=smeismastger;33641450]With this rate they ban women and everyone turns gay[/QUOTE] Correction: everyone fucks little boys And it's already happened.

One skin..

That's just retarded.

I smell satire What's depressing is that I could completely believe it after the 'eyes' article/declaration.

What about popsicles

This is bullshit.

[QUOTE=znk666;33641298]We should outlaw and ban the bananas! We must keep these blasphemous thoughts away from our women![/QUOTE] you got it all wrong we should ban all the females before they make the bananas too attractive for males to keep their hands off them

So, lemme see if I can boil this down into simple terms. We have the extremist Muslims, who wish to oppress everyone around them and enforce religious law. We have the extremist Christians and others who want to "liberate" (bomb the fuck out of) the extremist Muslims and anything else that happens to wander into the blast zone. And then we have every other sane individual stuck in-betwixt the cluster-fuck. Absolutely loverly, that.

From now on I'm only serving my bitch mashed bananas in a dog food bowl. Praise Allah.

So what happens when all of the women start buying melons instead?

Why does this remind me of AA so much?

[QUOTE=Cowabanga;33641786]This is bullshit.[/QUOTE] It literally is. There is no evidence this actually happened. Does nobody read the fucking articles anymore?

Their ideas aren't very a[I]peeling[/I]

I can see the LACK OF COMMON sense with some people over there.
