| #4 "Looking for a lost dog indicates the spread of a corrupt culture, which indirectly popularises keeping a dog at home, something that is completely foreign to the culture and Isamic tradition," said Tehran police spokesman, Mehdi Ahmadi. Pause to consider just how utterly barren Islamic life must be: No dogs for children to play with and learn about unconditional love and devotion. Illiterate mothers who cannot read a bedtime story to their children or help teach them how to read a book. No freedom of speech that permits healthy discussion and critical analysis of current events. No freedom of religion that is so vital to a pluralistic society. No graphic depiction of most living forms which curtails artistic creativity. No public displays of affection that lend a romantic atmosphere to daily life. No pork or other haram foods that widen the diet and variety of sustenance. No beautiful or shapely women proudly strutting their stuff on the street. No non-liturgical music to break up the monotony of constant religious worship. No alcohol to unwind with and enhance convivial gatherings. No co-ed intermingling that allows young people to refine their social skills. The Muslim world is nothing short of a mental prison. It is abusive in the extreme and represents nothing less than a spiritual gulag. |

| #3 bigjim: Dogs are unclean to muslims. Think muslim taxi drivers turning down customers because they have a seeing eye dog, for example. |
