Good luck with that!

I'm also quite confused on what this particular fatwa would entail. In my department there's quite a lot of women working. Would that mean that I can only work with those who had a baby in the period I work here (there go the meetings with a few of my supervisors)? Would they actually have to lactate at that moment? Or can I just suck the breast of the collegues I need to have a working relationship with? I mean, I have some very attractive collegues, but it would be awkward to say the least.
Methinks the guy proposing this did so after watching a few corny office porn movies, not after reading the koran. Or perhaps he reads the koran while watching corny office porn movies. |

What a pleasure it is to see this kind of dangerous twisted thinking flashed around the world for all to read. Think about it. When more of the world was way more illiterate and had no access to information like this, this would only be known by those closer to him and accepted without out much question or thought.

Good point but I see cases that theist are alone with this "brain rot" affliction. SS |

| Too bad......that would have been a great "Fatwa" |
I would rather face a cold reality than delude myself with comforting fantasies.

But yet this great intellect fails to answer how bearing her breast didn't violate some sort of modesty restriction.
What Egypt's minister of religious affairs wanted to say was "What the fuck? Did you even read the Qu'ran? What drugs are you guys doing?"
