The West came to the aid of Allah? I've never heard that before.

"allah and the emir" is a dig at a glowing headline about Osama Bin-Ladens heroism during the cold war. That was actually printed.

Why cause it´s a little sexual? Or is it because it states the fact that secular governments are much better than religious ones?

Don't worry, the moment the west stops needing oil from the middle east, nobody will care about the it anymore.


Unless, of course, they decide to try to fix the human right violations.

Maybe you should be ashamed at not having a sense of humor.

I must firmly disagree.
I’m a fervent opponent to religiously-guided governments and the Middle East is - Pardon the bluntness - a cesspit of religious extremism, superstition and tyranny. I believe it is in the interests of humanity as a whole to see the secularisation of the Middle East, North Africa and other backwards regions.

The proper and full installation of secular democratic states is in the interest of future Middle Eastern generations, as well. The people can vote for candidates they choose, and that helps nation-states adjust to changing times and circumstances. It makes countries more able to adapt and react in a hopefully positive manner. Secular governments also are largely free from religious dogma and fanaticism seen in the Middle East and other Islamic-dominated regions. It is only when fanatics gain control in a democracy does it become a problem.
Democracy ~ Rationalism ~ Integrity
Sometimes I wonder whether I should actually go through the trouble to get a degree when nigh-complete automation will most likely make me redundant anyway.

I’m an autistic, college-aged, white Anglo atheist who’s politically confused and enjoys traveling but is too poor to go overseas. Grr.

Because sexual posts are inappropriate and against Allah.

It is not 'harmless'. It clouds the mind with dirty thoughts.

I don't want any of that crap. Understand?

Well guess what buddy. None of us give a shit about your sky friend who probably does not even exist. If Allah does not like it he can get off his fat lazy ass and come down here and say so himself. So if you don´t like a little harmless sexual humor close your eyes and look away.

Too bad. This is the Internet, buddy. Half of it is porn, the other half is just a distraction in between masturbatory sessions.
