New Fatwa warns Muslims not to go live on Mars. The General Authority of Islamic Affairs and Endowment in the United Arab Emirates says the trip is so dangerous it’s suicidal and people who commit suicide do not fare well in the hereafter. Meanwhile, of course, while these religious geniuses ponder and pontificate about Mars, nary a day passes without some idiot Muslim killing himself with a suicide bomb somewhere.

Mars breathes a sigh of relief.
I thought Uranus would be a bit more their speed.
Not my anus.
Or Goat-anus.
You would never have to worry about practitioners of the Islamic faith being on Mars, there's no goats there.
They could bring some along for the ride.
Pity. I can't think of anyplace I'd rather see them.
If muslims did make it to Mars, & things sucked, they would still blame the Jews, even if none were there to make things sh!tty.
I can think of another plant they should all move to..starts with Ur..fitting, very fitting..
I would prefer a mass exodus to Krypton. If we could only convince them it really exists and they would become supermen if they went there.
They DO seem to like explosions.
I guess this means Obama won't claim they invented space travel now.
Pass on Mars but they shouldn't give up on the Sun.
I wonder if their attitude would change if they thought there were Jews living on Mars.
Then they would say they were there first.
So much for NASA's Muslim outreach program.
