Stupid Guest Tricks

Someone at work who knows how much I absolutely love Disney and Mickey pointed this story out to me.

I'm baffled!!

Sheikh Mohamed al-Munajid, a cleric who often appears on Saudi television and who is also a former Saudi diplomat in the United States, said last week that mice were "agents of Satan" and should be killed.


"Sharia (Islamic law) calls for the extermination of all mice. That includes the rodents as well as 'the famous cartoon mouse'," he said.

CAIRO (AFP) - An Egyptian Muslim scholar has called for an end to risible religious edicts after a Saudi cleric said Mickey Mouse was an agent of Satan who should die, local media reported on Wednesday.

Sheikh Mohamed al-Munajid, a cleric who often appears on Saudi television and who is also a former Saudi diplomat in the United States, said last week that mice were "agents of Satan" and should be killed.

"Sharia (Islamic law) calls for the extermination of all mice. That includes the rodents as well as 'the famous cartoon mouse'," he said.

However, Suad Saleh, a woman preacher who hosts a popular television programme on fatwas, or religious edicts, told the English-language daily Egyptian Gazette that Munajid's ruling "tarnishes Islam's image."

"An edict should be based on knowledge, logic and reason," she said. "Yes, mice should be killed when seen according to Islam's teachings. But it is illogical to deal with a cartoon character as a live mouse and kill it."

In 2005, the former dean of Egypt's Al-Azhar University, the world's oldest Islamic seat of learning, said in a widely criticised ruling that nudity during sex annuls a couple's marriage.

Saleh said Muslim clerics should learn to become more media savvy.

Earlier this month, another Saudi cleric said owners of satellite television channels that broadcast "immoral" content deserved to die.

He blamed Mickey Mouse for causing people to become soft on mice.

Does anybody remember when, during the first Iraq war, they had "Baghdad Betty" transmit messages alleging that soldiers' spouses back home were being unfaithful? Female soldiers were told their husbands were being unfaithful to them with female celebrities, and male soldiers were told their wives were being unfaithful with male celebrities, including Bart Simpson! :hysteria:
