This would be funny if it weren’t so stupid

Those wacky clerics!

A SENIOR Iranian cleric says women who wear revealing clothing and behave promiscuously are to blame for earthquakes.

Iran is one of the world’s most earthquake-prone countries, and the cleric’s unusual explanation for why the earth shakes follows a prediction by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad that a quake is certain to hit Tehran and that many of its 12 million inhabitants should relocate.

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

Yes indeed. Consequently.

    I hope Al Gore never hears of this. He has caused enough trouble already with all that warming and changing crap.

    I’ve heard of women as breathtaking but not earth moving.

    Do they have the same kinds of women in Iran that we have here? Do they have special kinds of women or special clothes over there?

    Just trying to figure this out.
