#5  You know, in 10th, 11th century Iran was a scientific center of the world.

Just shows you how things can go to hell in a mere millennium or so.

The irony here is that the word "alcohol" comes from the Arabic.

#2  Daintily retrieved from the "too gross to pos'" pile in light of alcohol content...

Sick Shiites were standing in line
To kiss the behind of a shrine:
"It's really a pity
Our shithole's so spitty."
"A loaf and saliva..."
"Not wine?" A survivor
In wilderness wholly divine?
"O Allah, please send us some sign!"
