Stupidity central

“Many women who do not dress modestly … lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which increases earthquakes,” Ayatollah Kazem Sedighi was quoted as saying by Iranian media…. “What can we do to avoid being buried under the rubble?” Sedighi asked during a prayer sermon last week. “There is no other solution but to take refuge in religion and to adapt our lives to Islam’s moral codes.”

Is it my imagination or is this one of the single stupidest observations made this decade? I know, I know, there is a lot of competition for this coveted award. But seriously, what is this man smoking that makes him think this? Has he not heard of tectonic plates? Movement of the earth’s crust? No, logic is asking too much. It’s easier to blame women.

Now that I’m on this rant, why is it always the woman’s fault? What about men taking responsibility for their actions? Maybe men should be locked up because they are so incredibly weak they can be corrupted by nothing more than a wanton glance from a woman. Women must be incredibly powerful if they can lead men astray AND cause earthquakes with a flutter of their eyelashes. Oh look we can also bake cakes, beat off home invaders, wash the dishes, corrupt the morals of young men and leap buildings in a single bound.  Hmmm maybe if we put our minds to it we could make narrow minded bigoted misogynists spontaneously combust. Concentrating… concentrating… damn… didn’t work.
