You couldn't possibly invent stuff like this:Sydney Morning Herald
quote:
Malaysian religious authorities have raided a transvestite beauty pageant and arrested 80 Muslim contestants and guests.

State religious officer Abdul Rahim Mahmud said yesterday that his team of men, backed by police, stormed the "Queen of Paperdolls 2002" contest in Muar, a small town in southern Johor state.

He said the transvestites ran helter-skelter and some tried to evade arrest by hiding in secret compartments in the lounge.


I've already submitted this to Chuck Shepherd's News of the Weird.

WTF? State religious officer? Secret compartments in the lounge?

Generally speaking, the errors in religion are dangerous; those in philosophy only ridiculous.
