It's not a religion of peace, but one of sodomy.

The UK version of the Onion?

“Every time we landed a Chinook near a village, we got some irate bloke running up to us saying his goat has just got blown off the mountain ridge by the helicopter - and then he demanded a hundred dollars compensation.”

Quite reasonable, Major. That goat was the poor fellow's wife.

I'm a taliban and I'm ok...

Ack! Get out of my head!! :-D

If this is true, these people were probably in the closet fearing for their lives during the Taliban era. Christian Reconstructionists and the Taliban have a lot in common on this subject.

LMAO

[Cold Heat]

Swarms of them! LOL!

[1234]

is HOMOSEXUALITY widespread within this religion/culture?

Must suck to have a potential lay blown off a cliff. All puns and innuendo are completely unintentional. ;)

There are no gays in other religions?

"They put some music on and ask us to dance. I told them where to go," said Cpl Richard. "Some of the guys turned tail and fled. It was hideous."

Only 'some'?

[max_rpf]

Yes, it is just not talked about.

The hardened troops, their faces covered in camouflage cream and weight down with weapons, radios and ammunition, were confronted with Afghans wanting to stroke their hair.

I can see why they were attracted, those U.K. Marines are just sooo butch! Plus, when you consider that the locals haven't bathed in a year the Brits probably smell a lot nicer too.

NaW.
(I, of course, only lust after their weapons...)
(Meaning firearms you perverts...)

[Clemenza]

Well, they can always join the Jesuit order...

Just kidding, though not by much.

[MarineDad]

This can't be real...can it?? Good grief, the possibilities are endless! Maybe this is simply the Afghan version of a 'USO' - Uninhibited Sodomite Outreach...

[Clemenza]

Of course there are. Lighten up. Its just that the Mullahs go out of their way to denounce this "alternative lifestyle" and besides, the thought of a bunch of gay goat farmers in Afghanistan is an image too funny to ignore!

[Don Myers]

"..."They were more terrifying than the al-Qaeda."

If the Afghans formed squads of gays, they would be formidable. What could be more terrifying than an bunch of unarmed, naked gays charging at you yelling make love, not war?
