10 signs you might be a Taliban
10. You refine heroin for a living, but have a moral objection to beer.
9. You own a £1,500 machine gun and a £5,000 rocket launcher, but you can't afford shoes.
8. You have more wives than teeth.
7. You think vests come in two styles: bullet-proof and suicide.
6. You can't think of anyone you HAVEN'T declared Jihad against.
5. You consider television dangerous, but routinely carry ammunition in your clothes.
4. You've never been asked, 'Does this burka make my arse look big?'
3. You're amazed to discover that mobile phones have uses other than setting off roadside bombs.
2. A common compliment is, 'I love what you've done with your cave.'
And, the NUMBER ONE SIGN you might be a member of the Taliban:
1. You wipe your arse with your bare hand, but consider bacon unclean!

Brian ... I'm sensing that you might be a little bit biased against our Islamic brethren!
I don't really approve of their religious & more specifically cultural differences either when they conflict with long standing rights/laws/behaviours etc. in this country but then I believe that when in their country I should respect their customs (and if I don't, I don't fucking go there).
I may be wrong about you (and if so I apologise) but I think you may be on a bit of a crusade against Islam.

Awww c'mon guys. It was a humorous post.
How about a 10 signs you might be a fundie? That be funny?
I'll start, you add!
10. You tend to see the world in terms of dualities. Everything is black and white with little in the way of shades of gray. If someone is not right about the essence of your faith, he is wrong. Period!
9. Other's "wrongness" doesn't only extend to matters of faith. You begin to think that the other person is at her core a "wrong person." They are flawed in some way.
8. You see humanity divided into "them and us." There exists two basic groups of people, the subgroup with which you identify and the rest of the world.
Well ok, those werent funny at all but that's ok for this exercise.
Post a sign identifying a fundie today! Only 7 slots left!

I'll try one.
7. You believe that circular arguments are logical when it comes to God, because he's "special", and you 'just know it'; because how he is portrayed in the bible proves that: Because it was inspired by his awesome "specialness".

6. When confronted by an atheist in an atheist forum you cut and paste large chunks of what they have already read and consider that a fair way to refute their point.

5. You are highly likely to be clinically insane or mentally backward, but not considered as such because religion is "special" to many.

I can say that I'd go Berzerker if someone put a Mosque in my neighborhood. I have a severe disliking for the Muslim faith. Being a woman I can't stand any religion/government that censors women or has special rules for females. They scare me!!
