The infidels are swarming in the middle east. Measures must be taken to combat this outbreak of critical thought and rationality. Fortunately brothers (any sisters present get out now, double shame if you’re not barefoot and burqa’d) action is being taken.
“CAIRO – Egypt’s most prominent democracy advocate accused President Hosni Mubarak’s government Saturday of posting Facebook photos of his daughter in swimsuits and at events where alcohol was served in an attempt to discredit him.
Keep your eyes on this 'atheist'!
Mohammed ElBaradei, the Nobel Peace Prize winner and former U.N. nuclear chief, was quoted in the independent Al-Dustour newspaper as saying the government is “waging a campaign of sheer lies” by using the photos to portray him and his family as nonbelievers — a politically damaging accusation in an increasingly conservative Muslim country.
We have the infidels, women in public with bathing suits and even a greater sin, dare I say it? Alcohol. Warm up your stoning arms people.
“The more than 30 photos were posted under the title: “Secrets of 
the ElBaradei family.” Some show his daughter in swimsuits at the beach and sitting at events in front of what appeared to be bottles of alcohol. Drinking is forbidden in Islam and conservative Muslims would generally consider a woman appearing publicly in a bathing suit to be immodest.”
The scandal. It is shocking. Truly shocking.
“ElBaradei has drawn the government’s anger with a campaign he started early this year boldly calling for electoral reform and constitutional amendments that would allow a credible candidate to challenge the ruling party in next year’s presidential election.
Respected internationally and untouched by the corruption tainting much of Egypt’s regime, ElBaradei brought together a coalition of young activists and opposition groups to push for change.”
Yes! We shall smear this activist for opposing our regime. There may be a few rotten apples in the barrel of the Egyptian government, overall we are a transparent, open democracy.
“The Facebook site also says his daughter is married to a Christian and shows an image of what it purports is her real profile from the social networking site listing her religious status as agnostic.
The Facebook site also accuses ElBaradei himself of being an atheist and of seeking to deceive Egyptians by touring mosques and being photographed praying.”
The forces of freedom in action.
We saved the best for last a double hit! ElBaradei’s daughter is married to a Christian and ElBaradei himself is an atheist!
Checkmate brothers! We have ferreted out this unbeliever in our midst, he claims he wants responsible government by the people, but we have exposed him. He wants to take our gods away and we all know the sinful immorality that will follow once that happens.
Never fear though brothers we shall keep reason safely at arms length! Allah Ackbar!

The only thing this satirical post widens, for me, is my belief that the majority of Homo sapiens should be sterilized at once! Praise be!
Stupidity evidently breeds doltish whackjobs that, eventually, just procreates more imbecilic freaks for us to deal with later, sort out, and/or see. Ha-ha! ;)

I was just discussing Liberals in the Islamic World with a Liberal and she gave Egypt as an example of progress and tolerance . Now I read that accusing someone of being a non believer in an increasingly Conservative Muslim country is harmful.

Magical thinking often leads to bad outcomes. We should probably start there. :)

Alan Scott – To be fair, being labeled a non-believer is damaging in North America as well. Probably not as damaging as in Egypt, but it can still lead to people losing their job, becoming unelectable, parents disowning children, abandonment by friends. They usually stop short of killing you here though.

Dude, are you serious?? Being labeled a non-believer is damaging in North America?? How is that? Employers in this country have STRICT rules about bringing Religion into the workplace. They are not allowed to pray or get into Religious conversations. I never heard of anyone losing their job because had NO RELIGION but I have seen a multitude of people lose their jobs because of their Religion. Just like friends, they abandon you when you DO have religion and stick to your morals instead of partying & having fun. And also there is a difference between Religion and Spirituality. Nowadays people are religious and not spiritual. Religion doesn’t get you in trouble, spirituality does. Because it takes more of a commitment and less of routine.

Bleatmop,
It’s not fair of me to post that without giving you the context. I was arguing that Liberals who hate Conservative Christians, really do not understand that if the US becomes heavily influenced by Islam, their liberal ideals will be much more in danger than they ever were by Christianity. We argued about whether there were any Liberals in Islamic Countries. I was wrong about the number of women politicians, but that doesn’t make them Liberals.
Anyway Egypt was one of the countries we discussed, which is why this topic caught my eye.

Alan – Fair enough. I find it as no surprise that being labeled a non-believer is damaging in an Islamic country though. Especially for a Muslim. The Sharia is quite clear when it comes to the punishment for being an apostate; it’s death. The fact that he hasn’t already been stoned by a mob after all those accusations shows how far along Egypt has come, though they certainly have a long way to go.
