Facebook evil, or maybe not. New Iranian Fatwa.
October 15, 2011 at 8:28 pm
The supreme religious leader of Iran has issued a confusing and ambiguous fatwa on the subject of whether Facebook is evil or not in the eyes of the Koran.

Personally I think Facebook is evil, but not for religious reasons. Mostly because it is like the Borg Collective, and they seek to assimilate you.

The fatwa, and an attempt at an explanation of what it means and why it came about, can be found on Radio Free Europe (US official shortwave organ to east Europe and SW Asia). http://www.rferl.org/content/iran_suprem...60256.html
