Muslim group in Egypt: "Eating tomatoes is forbidden because they are Christian" [see the Cross]

See the cross? See it? Why are you laughing?

Warning! Your salad could be making you into an Infidel! "Salafist group warns tomatoes are 'Christian,'” by Angie Nassar for NowLebanon.com, June 12 (thanks to Lachlan)

...A Salafist group called the Popular Egyptian Islamic Association has come under fire after sending out a warning on Facebook urging its followers not to eat tomatoes because the vegetable (or fruit) is a Christian food. The group posted a photo on its page of a tomato - which appears to reveal the shape of a cross after being cut in half – along with the message: “Eating tomatoes is forbidden because they are Christian. [The tomato] praises the cross instead of Allah and says that Allah is three (a reference to the Trinity).

[God help us]. I implore you to spread this photo because there is a sister from Palestine who saw the prophet of Allah [Mohammad] in a vision and he was crying, warning his nation against eating them [tomatoes]. If you don’t spread this [message], know that it is the devil who stopped you.”

Yeah... no.

Predictably, Facebook users expressed outrage over the post, which prompted the group to clarify its stance on the controversy with the update, “We didn’t say you can’t eat tomatoes. We said don’t cut it in [such a way that reveals] the cross shape.”...

Thank God for the goodness of tomatoes, the love apple.

God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life...

God is love...

OK, they're right - no Muslims can eat tomatoes, salsa, pizza, spaghetti etc. God in his wisdom has sent a sign - in a tomato... and in McDonald's french fries... shaped like the Madonna... no potatoes either....

Wow. Even tomatoes rebuke the Islam tenets and embrace Truth.

I guess some folk will pay closer attention to their salads from now on..

These people are absolutely insane, and I see no hope of them ever being otherwise.

Sounds good to me. I think I should have called them Christaphopes, not Christophobes. There is a lot of Christaphobia going around these days. People are truly fearful of God’s love.

Imagine what will happen when someone tells the Salafists about cruciferous vegetables -- broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, Chinese cabbage, collards, kale, mustard, radish, rutabaga, turnip.

Check the definition of "crucifer" online -- "1, one who carries a cross especially at the head of an ecclesiastical procession. 2, any of a family (Cruciferae syn. Brassicaceae) of plants including the cabbage..." Worse than tomatoes!

No wonder these muzzie asshats regressed after mohamhead appeared on the scene. I’m waiting for them to start walking on all fours again.

That’s a five-pointed star, so it’s obviously a Wiccan or Satanist fruit.

A friend sent me this:

A Muslim meets Christ

This is one of the most powerful videos I have seen...A must watch.

If you are a Christian, you need to watch this video!
If you are not a Christian, you need to watch this video!
If you are a non-believer, you need to watch this video!

Islam is the manifestation of Mohammed’s Obsessive-Compulsive disorder. If you happen to fart while saying your prayers in the bathroom cleansing ritual, you have to begin the ritual all over again.

Actually, muslims should’nt eat at all. All of them should starve themselves to death in the name of their “allah’

OK, I've figured out how to get rid of the jihadis: Just get a bunch of Southern rednecks together, and tell them that the jihadis say they can't have 'maters in their BBQ sauce.

Problem solved.

One would think those selfsame rednecks would already know that ummah means no bacon, no poke chops, no ribs, no sausage gravy...
