[Closed] Nothing like a reasoned scientific argument based on years of empirical research

Thought I was looking at the Daily Mash for a minute there

Scary scary stuff.

Someone with that little brain is surely defying nature by being able to perform all bodily functions...

what's as worrying is that he wasn't laughed out of the mosque by the worshippers...

I have a chinese woman in my house. Oh the trouble that she causes.

anyone who shares a house with hora is probably destined for sainthood.

Either that or certifying 😉

So rather than building safer houses, they're going to make everyone feel guilty?

have you actually read the article?

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said many of Tehran's 12 million inhabitants should relocate.

There are plans to build a purpose built new capital near Qom.

He needs to worry about how much his own country will rattle once America lets the Israel Air (arf) defence off it's leash.

Point for debate...?

Let's imagine we're in the mind of one of these clerics....

could they [i]actually[/i] believe this - as in, I have spent a lifetime in study of the holy scriptures, and the unavoidable conclusion that I draw - is that earthquakes are caused by promiscuity????

OK - No 10 PR boy, what shit shall we brief the media / proles with today to keep them in check

Worryingly, I suspect the former. Just look how mad this country's leaders were with regard to this sort of thing a few hundred years ago when religion had more influence...

Actually Iran was a far more secular contry as recently as 30 years ago(albeit a dictatorship).A lot of the radical stuff is being pushed to show how decadent we in the West are.

I honestly thought this thread was going to be about the great climate change scam.

Either that, or they sits around smoking hookah pipes all day, pissing themselves silly over stories they're going to plant in the press.

"I've got a great one, we'll tell them we think Earthquakes are caused by loose women..."

How the days fly by...

Don't be silly,it is less than one page long,there are no graphs,and most people can still understand it.

Well, if you believe that it's a scam, you're probably of a similar IQ level to the fools who dreamt up this article...

Zokes. We need to give more to the Polar Bear charity

So did the earth move for you?
Less sghagging, less earth moving = fewer earthquakes and less volcanoes.
Yup, I see his point completely. Furthermore, being swayed to the point where I'm now converted to islam, that "Act of God" p1sh doesn't wash with me either.

Maybe God is saying Islam is bad. I mean, we don't get many earthquakes and most people here are christian.

Why would god send lots of earthquakes to his chosen people?

Confused why Iran hasn't coped a mouthful of lead sooner.

Do people really believe that? And they wonder why most sane people think they are all nutters...

I like this story. It confirms the uniformity of humanity. You're just as likely to get a David Icke in Iran as you are in England.

I mean, we don't get many earthquakes

The UK is one of the most earthquake prone countries in the world, as you would expect given our moral decay.

The British Geological Society web page shows 5 earthquakes in or near our country in the last thirty days!

It's just that they're all tiny tiny earthquakes that no-one notices. Go figure.

Junkyard,does that graph mean that Pirates are what; Unable to sail the seven seas as they have risen too much? Unable to build boats as the acid rain has killed the trees? Or there are fewer icebergs to hide behind?

I find it hard to imagine that the promiscuity of women is really linked to earthquakes, but I hesitate to rule it out entirely. Something about the idea is intuitively right.

In my new messiah role, let me save the world. Send me all loose women immediately.

He's actually an arch-feminist.

He's basically saying: "if the earth moves, it's all down to [i]her[/i] technique."

Earthquakes are caused by the methane produced by all the cows being reared to make shoes,handbags,and white leather sofas for All Bar One's.I think that is a widely accepted fact,but would be willing to be proven wrong.

snowslave, the deal is still I get to process them whilst you are the figurehead of the operation yeah?

Hora, I forgive you for your sinful thoughts

That's interesting, ta. The source I looked at showed only 5 in the Uk in 2010 but about 200 in Iran. I'll take the British Geological society view though.

Confused

Not really a new thing with you, is it Hora?

Confused why Iran hasn't coped a mouthful of lead sooner.

I imagine there's a fair amount of "why do we even bloody bother?"-ing going on at the Iranian seismological service at the moment: http://irsc.ut.ac.ir/

Maybe it's because we're all really crap shags.

And to think that classical islam was once a cradle and supporter of advanced geometry, science, philosophy, poetry and engineering, it makes you weep

Sorry I'm late...

Scientists, theologians and one daily newspaper claimed the volcano-related paralysis must be linked in some way to Britain's ever-worsening trollop infestation. [/url]

Maybe the clerics should have control of nukes

Living in Barnsley, I feel a bit worried if this chap's theories have any truth to them.

I wonder how many will belive it though

Sorry I'm late...

Thanks woppit, that's just what we need - another shouty wee man in love with the sound of his own voice.

Oh,they will! 😕

have we really go two religous people objecting to a religous group having nukes 😐
ah the delicous irony of the schisms of the children of abraham ..you do know they follow the same 10 commandments as you dont you?

I thought the earthquakes and volcanos were because of the large hadron collider.

Depends on how you dress these things up 🙂

Err..Where in those ten commandments does it say that "you should develop nuclear weapons with which to try and dominate the region?" I fail to see why being a Christian would make me support the idea of nuclear proliferation,so if you could point out the

delicious irony
