What freaking morons. It would have been a great Darwin award if they had beat it with metal rods.

Paul baptized a talking lion btw…
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

So, Iran’s authorities have decided not to release any new images of Mojtaba Khamenei because they fear that enemies (specifically foreign intelligence services like Mossad) could use new photographs or personal materials in esoteric rituals or supernatural attacks—such as casting curses or using sympathetic magic—to harm Mojtaba Khamenei from a distance.
Quote:Iran MP cites ‘occult sciences’ risk in withholding images of Khamenei Jr.
A member of Iran’s parliament said authorities have decided not to release any new images or materials related to Mojtaba Khamenei, citing concerns over “occult sciences” and unconventional methods that could be used against him.
“Based on the opinion of scholars in Najaf, Qom and Mashhad and the decision of security officials, no new images or materials of him will be released for now so that enemies cannot harm him through particular methods and occult sciences,” said Salar Velayatmadar, a member of the National Security Commission, claiming that such sciences and methods are studied in institutions including those in Tel Aviv.

Christians have the luxury of promising complete human annihilation while accusing other religions of extremism.

Yeah, that sounds like someone we want in charge of the nuclear arsenal.
