Beaches & Burkas


Throwing the US Constitution's establishment clause to the trade winds, the Hawaiian state legislator has declared 29 September 2009 as "Islam Day"to celebrate "the rich religious, scientific, cultural and artistic contributions" of the Mohammedan faith.

If you're wondering when Christianity Day is going to be established, I'd advise against holding your breath. It's a long wait.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
