| Promiscuous women cause earthquakes, claims Iranian cleric |
| 2015-05-08 |
| h/t Gates of Vienna In about the most extreme example of slut shaming yet, a prayer leader in Tehran has blamed earthquakes on women who dress provocatively and tempt people into promiscuity. "When promiscuity spreads, earthquakes increase," Hojatoleslam Kazim Sadeghi said during prayers on Friday, a video of which was later posted on YouTube. No sillier than AGW, or gender |

| #8 Another strategic deployment of sluts to Iran nuke sites! I suddenly see a solution to our current Women in Combat controversy. I even have ideas for the patch. Sorry, too NSFW. |

| #5 A friend sent me an article about CO2 emissions at the Hawaii Observatory reaching 400ppm as proof of global warming. Given that CO2 levels have risen during the entire period of the temperature pause, one must wonder about claims of causation outside the lab. |

| #4 A friend sent me an article about CO2 emissions at the Hawaii Observatory reaching 400ppm as proof of global warming. He retracted part of his assertion when I pointed out the observatory is on an active volcano and volcanos emit CO2. The level of CO2 is much higher on an active volcano than on a normal mountain. Even volcanos considered dormant emit CO2. |
