Happy Ashura!
We missed it. It was yesterday!!!
Post your favorite Ashura memories HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good memories in Indonesia....
Being hit on the head with a sharp object and bleeding profusely is a good thing. No wonder we all love Islam so much. And, if a female member of our family gets out of hand, we get to kill them. Islam is a religion that is just filled with goodness and happiness. I’ll never understand why everyone doesn’t embrace Islam. Persecuting and killing people of other religions is such a fun thing. Sort of like a “hobby,” you understand.
How sweet!
I forgot about that time with little Barry .... !!!
Next year I’ll blow the shofar.
I have to wonder what the cutting of the scalp like that would eventually lead to scar tissue blocking blood flow increasing the incidence of scalp migraine type headaches, no wonder they are such a miserable lot....
Does anybody have the scoop on what this bizarre ritual is supposed to be all about?
You would think they could just remember Muharram with a song, or a picture, or cartoon or something. Perhaps they are trying to draw a picture of Muharram in the kids head, and they just do not stay still long enough to finish the jobn.
Who says that multiculturalism is not a blessing?
Let’s hold bloody hands and sing Kumbayah.
