As The American Thinker (http://americanthinker.com/comments.php?comments_id=92) said this moring about this great occassion: you can judge what is going on by listeninbg to what religious leaders ay on sacred days in sacred spots! Read the venom that spilled out at this (aboive ) site...you won't find that at Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Buddhist, etc etc gatherings for religious purposes on sacred days.

You're so cute when you're invecting Postroad, please save it for another day. Or, failing that, look at another sermon such as this one delivered showing another facet. I would indicate also that if you percieve your people are a) in a struggle and b) suffering losses against heavy odds, you would wish that they win out too.

In sad news, there was a stampede during one of the final rites. It's a tiring time and the mass of people makes accidents all to easy to happen and escalate - Innaa lillaahi wa innaa ilayhi raaji'oon and may Allah (swt) give all their families strength.

Eid mubarak to one and all, may you all have a lovely day and remind those you love how much you do.

Keep the faith, Postroad. By the way, that's quite a porn collection on your blog.

Are there some photographs of the 244 people who were trampled to death in the traditional "stoning of Satan"?

Krrrlson, I keep thinking they need to build more of those 'stoning of Satan' pillars...hasn't the exact same thing happened several times in the past?

jim bob, they have above and below ground pillars. Bin Laden Co. refurbished Mecca to accommodate more people.

almost every year there are deaths, one year 1400 people where killed. And no, I do not think they will build more pillars.
