		<description>That sheik oughta look at what it says in the Koran about how people who pollute the water are KAFFARS. That means that they ought to be stoned to death. Anyone who pollutes the waters! Now can the Sheik or anyone in the oh so religulous world explain to the class, how one can extract petroleum (let alone burn it) without polluting any water? I&#039;m not even talking about poor Valdez, but every drop of water that&#039;s polluted....



And then tell me this: Do hospitals in Saudi Arabia use alcohol? Even to dab on the skin before a needle? Or is that also against Allah?



Sheesh! Once again we see that Allah JC and YHVH belong in the same box as Zeus, Poseidon, Odin, Loki, Baal, and the rest of grandma&#039;s tales. Then hopefully we can evolve and deal with our situation...</description>

		<description>So are bacteria and yeasts prohibited also?  Because they produce alcohol.  So what do they use in hospitals and biology labs?</description>

		<description>Hurm, Ethanol can be fractionally distilled out of crude oil.  And since the distillation process can&#039;t remove it all, there&#039;s no guarantee that any petrol-fuel is entirely bereft of ethanol.  I declare a Fatwa against crude oil!</description>

		<description>Biofuels are non-Islamic?  Is that for real?  Or is this some web hoax to see how much we&#039;ll believe?



If it is for real, then all of us making fun of Islam don&#039;t have to do a thing.  Islamic clerics are doing a great job of it without any help.</description>

		<description>okhan, with all due respect to the religion itself, it does not take an expert to tell that this is a political move, not a religious one. Maybe it&#039;s time for the truly pious people to stand up and stop the abuse of your religion for political purposes, which all religions practice but Islam excells in.</description>
