Jesus, or Some Hindu Deity, or Somebody, Loves You (Not!)

Below: The fruits of religious belief. Have you ever noticed how the American media is squeamish about publishing photos of dead Americans, but doesn't seem to give much of a shit about international corpses? Photo: Stringer/India/Reuters
More religious based death, this time accidental in India, unless the iron railings were tampered with.
Stampedes at temples are not uncommon in India where thousands of people gather to pray during festivals. In 2005, about 265 pilgrims were killed in a stampede near a temple in the western state of Maharashtra.
And about how many die in the hajj to Mecca each yr.? Not that we're complaining. The more dead believers, the better the world, in our not in the least humble opinion.

    M. l'éditeur réponds:

    Non, on n'est qu'Americain. Je habitais Paris pendant 1969 & 1970, toutefois.

    Et on aime le photo du chat.
