After hearing predictions that an earthquake could hit Iran soon, Tehran’s “acting Friday prayer leader”, Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi explained why that would be happening:
“Many women who do not dress modestly … lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes.”
So WOMEN are responsible for earthquakes? Who knew?
And all along I thought it had something to do with natural causes and fault lines. Thank you for the enlightenment, Sedighi. I will take great care in wielding my newly discovered super power. Maybe Carole King was already aware of her gifting when she wrote “I feel the earth move under my feet…”
Anyway…I feel special now that I know we women have such power. Ok, maybe not special but at least smarter than Sedighi! How about you?

Darn. I guess I’ll have to cancel my reservations.
