Masturbating men ‘will find their hands pregnant in the afterlife,’ says Muslim televangelist - RELIGION

After claiming that a man would meet his masturbating hand “pregnant in the afterlife” and “asking for its rights,” a Muslim televangelist has set Turkish social media aflame.

Self-styled televangelist Mücahid Cihad Han dived into some delicate matters on May 24 when he answered his viewers’ questions on private television station 2000 TV, Turkish media has reported. Han initially looked puzzled when a viewer said he “kept masturbating, although he was married, and even during the Umrah,” a pilgrimage to Mecca performed by Muslims which can be undertaken at any time of the year, in contrast to the Hajj.

After repeating the question a few times, Han claimed that Islam strictly prohibits masturbation as a “haram” (forbidden) act. “Moreover, one hadith states that those who have sexual intercourse with their hands will find their hands pregnant in the afterlife, complaining against them to God over its rights,” he said, referring to what he claimed to be a saying of Prophet Muhammad.

“If our viewer was single, I could recommend he marry, but what can I say now?” the televangelist added, advising the viewer to “resist Satan’s temptations.”

“Earthquakes are caused by the Jeans-Wearing Women” | Winds of Jihad

Not something I normally post, but ya can't make this shit up.  H/T to The Atheists Cafe:
Islamabad: Jamiat Ulema-e-Islami Fazl (JUI-F) Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman following the Friday sermon requested the armed forces of Pakistan to launch a military operation against “jeans-wearing women” all over Pakistan in a press conference at a local hotel in Islamabad. Fazlur Rehman while highlighting the demerits of an operation against the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) said that the Taliban were not Pakistan’s enemy and the forces needed to target the real enemies of Pakistan.

“The Taliban are our brothers and their angst against the state is justified,” Fazl said adding that, “As brother Ansar Abbasi has so eloquently put in the past: TTP’s suicide bombings are just Allah’s wrath upon us. And so there is a need to earmark and eliminate the real enemy of Pakistan: every woman who wears jeans.”

Gay and transgender murder video game pulled from gaming website Steam after complaints | Gay Star News

So hate didn't quite sell as one had hoped for.  When that didn't reap the "prosperity" expected, Hermen pulled a social experiment card stating that his game isn't reflective of his views and was trying to offend people to prove a point.

Online gaming website Steam have removed a controversial video game from availability after complaints were made about it’s violent homophobic and transphobic content by users.

‘Kill The Faggot’ was created and uploaded by Skaldic Games to Steam’s Steam Greenlight section which allows game developers to showcase their games and let the Steam user community decide which ones they want to be made commercially available through Steam.

Steam does not actively vet games for offensive content but developers must pay $100 to get their game onto Steam Greenlight as a quality control barrier.
,,,

Skaldic Games are claiming that the game was not intended to encourage hatred or violence towards LGBTI people but to protest political correctness in the gaming industry by making the ‘most overly offensive game possible to these idiots to prove a point.’

‘As for an apology - ain’t gonna happen,’ Skaldic Games wrote in a statement in response to their game being pulled from Steam.

Oregon couple's meth tip at Seaside steakhouse lands them behind bars, police say | OregonLive.com

They remembered to tip their waitress – in crystal meth, police said.

Police busted two suspected methamphetamine dealers at a Seaside restaurant after they slipped their server an envelope stuffed with the psychoactive drug, authorities said.

Ryan Bensen, 40, and Erica Manley, 37, spent Thursday night having dinner and drinks at the Twisted Fish Steakhouse, said Seaside Police Chief Robert Gross.

When it came time to settle their tab, the cash-strapped couple first plunked down a gift card to pay their bill, Gross said. Later, they offered their waitress an envelope with a question mark scribbled on it.

Escaped Kentucky inmate returns to jail instead of facing freezing temparatures | The Raw Story

I heard this on our local news last night at work, busted a gut laughing,,,

An inmate who went on the run from a Kentucky prison begged to be let back in just a day later because he was so cold, US police said.

Robert Vick escaped from the Blackburn jail on Sunday but turned up at the “Sunset Motel” in Lexington the next day asking for the police to be called, Sherelle Roberts, a Lexington police spokeswoman, told AFP.

Vick said he wanted to go back to prison because he was so cold, added the spokeswoman, saying temperatures in the central-eastern state were -20 degrees Celsius (-4 Fahrenheit).

1/7/2014::Naked Aussie gets stuck in washing machine | The Raw Story

Can we say (funny but) stupid,,,

A naked Australian man was left red-faced after getting stuck in a washing machine during a game of hide and seek, after police had to grease him up with olive oil to get him out.

The man clambered into the top-loader machine on Saturday afternoon at his home north of Melbourne, aiming to surprise his girlfriend when she got home.

But he became wedged, sparking a delicate rescue effort.

“He was trying to surprise his missus and became stuck,” Sergeant Tim Gleeson told the Herald Sun after police, firefighters, paramedics, and a local search and rescue squad used olive oil to manoeuvre the man out of his predicament.

1/6/2014::Duped! 'Marijuana Overdoses Kill 37 in Colorado' Satire Article Fools Many (Video) | Progressive Populist

Facepalm with eye roll!! This story was prevalent on some of the sites in my feed, and some of the comments were "priceless" to say the least. Just demonstrates that people are too quick to just accept blindly was others say without doing their own fact checking. Stupid is as stupid does,,,

So the satire site The Daily Currant decided to run with the story, penning an article proclaiming that 37 people overdosed and died of inhaling too much marijuana smoke on the first day of legalization.

The article sourced a newspaper that is no longer in existence – The Rocky Mountain News. According to the fake article, not only did 37 people die of overtoking, but several others were “clinging onto life in local emergency rooms and are not expected to survive,” and the death toll was expected to go “as high as 200, maybe 300.”

[,,,]
And the article went on to say that the governor of Colorado, John Hickenlooper – yes, that’s his real name – would try and overturn the law via a special legislative session.

Despite all the signs that the article was fake – the newspaper that is no longer in business, and the fact that no one ever has died due to overdosing on marijuana – people bought it, hook line and sinker.

Maine senate candidate’s domestic violence conviction proves he has ‘guts’ | The Raw Story

Hmmm, let me see if I got this right. In his mind he beat his ex wife, was convicted. He then sat in a jail cell and this shows he has integrity. But yet, he can't own up to the fact that he beat his wife so doesn't that show a lack of integrity? That's "pro-family?"
He went on to claim that the time he spent in jail for his conviction speaks to “how much guts and integrity [he] has.”

“The fact that I have been jailed repeatedly for not agreeing to admit to something I didn’t do should speak to the fact of how much guts and integrity I have,” he told the Bangor Daily News.

“If I go to D.C., I’m going to have that same integrity in doing what I say, and saying what I do, when it comes to protecting people’s rights, as well as their pocketbooks.”
I call that stupid dude!!

Fox Business host Stuart Varney: Ice in Antarctica proves ‘global cooling’ | The Raw Story

Fox Business host Stuart Varney said on Tuesday that his theory of “global cooling” had been proven when a research ship recently got stuck in ice near Antarctica.

The habitual climate-change denier reported that all 52 passengers of the Russian-flagged MV Akademik Shokalskiy had been rescued by helicopter after Chinese and Australian ice breakers had tried for days to reach the vessel.

“The ship, sent to the Antarctic to study climate change, has been stranded in the ice for 10 days,” Varney noted. “Attempts to rescue the passengers using ice breaker ships failed. Rescuers finally got through using a whopping, great big helicopter that was landing on the supposedly, very thin ice.”

“So, it looks to me like we are looking at global cooling,” he added. “Forget this global warming. That’s just my opinion.”

Staver Fears Everyone Will Go Gay Under Marriage Equality | Right Wing Watch

Liberty Counsel head Mat Staver is warning that with full marriage equality, everyone may decide to marry someone of the same sex and society could “cease to exist” altogether. While speaking to Vic Eliason of VCY America last week, Staver said that if gay marriage becomes legal nationwide then the country could become a childless, disease-ridden dystopia:
If you ultimately promoted same-sex marriage and everyone started to go towards same-sex marriage, what would happen to society? It would just simply cease to exist. Moreover, you’d have rampant increase in diseases. Already, you have rampant increase in diseases among same-sex activities, specifically men having sex with men. Same-sex marriage, same-sex relationships is destructive to individuals and it’s destructive to our very social fabric.
He later claimed that the expansion of gay rights is encouraging pedophilia and that the media “promotes” bestiality by making sex with animals seem like “a funny thing.” “That’s how this whole homosexuality began to happen on TV,” Staver said.

Four babies hemorrhage after parents refuse vitamin K shot, a practice on the rise : Lifestyles


Maternity care providers here and nationwide are on high alert for life-threatening vitamin K deficiencies in newborns, at the same time they are seeing more parents refusing a routine preventive injection.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a report last month about four babies in Nashville, Tenn., who hemorrhaged after their parents refused vitamin K injections at birth. The babies were diagnosed with life-threatening vitamin K deficiency bleeding between February and September. Three had bleeding in the brain, and one had gastrointestinal bleeding. They survived, but the infants with brain hemorrhages could have long-term neurological problems.

“Not giving vitamin K at birth is an emerging trend that can have devastating outcomes for infants and their families,” CDC director Dr. Tom Frieden stated in the report. “Ensuring that every newborn receives a vitamin K injection at birth is critical to protect infants.”
