Happy Boobquake Day!


An Iranian Islamic cleric recently shocked the world of science by pointing out the mechanism responsible for earthquakes, and it turns out women are at fault... fault, get it? :)

Here is what this Einstein had to say:
Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes. What can we do to avoid being buried under the rubble? There is no other solution but to take refuge in religion and to adapt our lives to Islam's moral codes.
As far as I can tell, the only geological effect resulting from cleavage and sexiness is a volcanic eruption... in my pants! :)

Anyway, in an effort to scientifically test this guy's hypothesis, women across the world are taking part in Boobquake: doing their best today to dress provocatively and see whether they can cause an earthquake. And since I have no boobs of my own, here's the only thing I can contribute, courtesy of Pedobear :)



Update: Stephen Colbert joins in the commentary... as an Earthquake actually hit Taiwan, today of all days...

So there is this silly battle of billboards between atheists and the religious. One group puts up a sign, the other group gets outraged about it and puts up one of its own... lather, rinse, repeat... it's the most boring and pointless ping-pong game...
