Monday, April 26th. Boobquake day!

by A Person | Published on April 20th, 2010, 10:42 am | Religion
An Iranian cleric, Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi, issues a warning about seismically slutty dames

Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi wrote:"Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes,"

Bad Alisa!


I wish I'd known that before - it would have made studying geology so much more interesting.

As Jen McCreight, the BlagHag points out - that's a scientifically testable hypothesis - so she suggests it's time for a boobquake.

Jen McCreight wrote:Sedighi claims that not dressing modestly causes earthquakes. If so, we should be able to test this claim scientifically. You all remember the homeopathy overdose?

Time for a Boobquake.

On Monday, April 26th, I will wear the most cleavage-showing shirt I own. Yes, the one usually reserved for a night on the town. I encourage other female skeptics to join me and embrace the supposed supernatural power of their breasts. Or short shorts, if that's your preferred form of immodesty. With the power of our scandalous bodies combined, we should surely produce an earthquake. If not, I'm sure Sedighi can come up with a rational explanation for why the ground didn't rumble. And if we really get through to him, maybe it'll be one involving plate tectonics.

So, who's with me? I may be a D cup, but that will probably only produce a slight tremor on its own.


Of course this only works if men are led astray by the awesome boob power. May I volunteer for that part? (I hope I'm not too old)
 
 
In that case, I'd expect earthquakes all OVER the northern Mediterranean coast, where clothing optional beaches are common. And since Muslim morality is not observed there by the vast majority of men, they are by definition "astray." By this logic, there shouldn't be a single building standing from Gibraltar to Istanbul.

Wait a second... It says here that Iran has had a long list of significant earthquakes. 13 of them AFTER the Islamic Revolution.

Does this mean that the Iranian men have been living more immorally than they did under the Shah (only 9 quakes, it seems)? We better not tell the religious authorities. No telling what that fact would lead to with those nuts.

This is only slightly more ridiculous than Rush Limbaugh blaming the Iceland eruption as God's retribution for the US passing the health Care bill

I think the earth has opened up. God may have replied. This volcano in Iceland has grounded more airplanes – airspace has more affected – than even after 9/11 because of this plume, because of this ash cloud over Northern and Western Europe. … It’s got everybody just in a shutdown. Earth has opened up. I don’t know whether it’s a rebirth or Armageddon. Hopefully it’s a rebirth, God speaking…


It seems God has remarkably bad aim which makes the cause of His wrath too effing ineffable. Punishing Iceland for having better healthcare than the US in retaliation for the US trying to improve theirs?

Oh well, better go sacrifice a chicken to see what God wants me to do about this project.

Seems to me it's EXACTLY the same thing. How could one be more ridiculous than the other?

Because I'm fairly sure that if pushed Limbaugh would admit to giving a facetious response. He'd blame it on Obama because - well because he blames everything on Obama - but also because it was a response to Obama's claim that Armageddon hadn't happened.

I don't think either Limbaugh or Beck take themselves seriously and know they are being outrageous just to garner listeners. Sedighi is serious.

Funny thing is, you can't really know whether they're truly nuts or just working to drive their followers nuts. Which SHOULD qualify them for mega-nut status I should think.

Do you really mean "always?"

Well it is interesting because where boobs are constantly exposed they are not seen as anymore sexual or tempting then any other body part.. so it could be argued that it is the strict "morals" of islam that cause men to associate boobs and other aspects of women as purely sexual temptations, sinful delights...ect :doh:

Well we had a spring snowstorm last night so Boobquake dayis a bust here (so far)

Let's hope the Southern girls in the warmth can make up for it. It will be really funny if there IS a major earthquake today.

Photos of warm bouncy boobs are always welcome.

Of course, there are earthquakes today. There are earthquakes every day around the world. Even if there was a major one tonight at 11:50 PM Hawaii time, it wouldn't be anything to remark. But the jiggling of flesh is notable at all times anyway. No matter what way you view it.

Apparently, the cleric who started this whole thing is standing by his claim. It seems that he forgot to mention earlier that if boobs DON'T cause an earthquake, it's because God is holding them back in order to encourage sinners to more thoroughly consign themselves to Hell. Or you know... whatever it takes to make this idiot correct. Because as we all know, being a godly man, it makes you incapable of being wrong when it comes to talking theology.
