It all begins with who Muhammad tapped as his successor. After his death in 632, one group (Sunns) backed this cat named Abu Bakr (Muhammad's friend) and another (Shi'a) backed Ali ibn Abi Talib (Muhammad's son-in-law).
And so thirty years after the death of Muhammad, be prepared to gasp in astonishment, the two factions fought a war about it. About two decades after that, they fought ANOTHER war about it. No kidding, their internal shit is just as retarded as the spat between the United Atheist Alliance, Allied Atheist Allegiance and Unified Atheist League in that Southpark episode. |

Stop being a crotchety bitch
-------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
