Iran rules “decadent” Valentine’s Day celebrations a crime

99

The day of love despised in an anti-love, anti-human culture. Valentine’s Day is forbidden. Stoning women, calling for genocide of the Jews, screaming “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” — that’s fine.

“Iran rules ‘decadent’ Valentine’s Day celebrations a crime,” Associated Press, February 12, 2016:

Story continues below advertisement

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran says it is cracking down on Valentine’s Day celebrations and shops engaging in them will be guilty of a crime.

Iran joins a number of Muslim countries in banning Valentines Day. How long before the West adheres to these bans? Absurd? Hardly. Look how much the West has given up to date.

Iranian news outlets reported the police directive Friday warning retailers against promoting “decadent Western culture through Valentine’s Day rituals.” Police informed Tehran’s coffee and ice cream shops trade union to avoid any gatherings in which boys and girls exchange Valentine’s Day gifts.

The annual Feb. 14 homage to romance, which tradition says is named after an early Christian martyr, has become popular in recent years in Iran and other Middle East countries.

The backlash in the Islamic Republic is part of a drive against the spread of Western culture.

Saudi Arabia has also sought to stamp out Valentine’s Day but it’s celebrated widely in nearby places like Dubai.

You are mistaken, the traditional notion of purgatory was a place ‘souls’ were kept until judgement day when ‘god’ would decide whether they went to hell or heaven.

The colour split on the sign defines islam “I am… a hate”. That is what islam is all about, hate, violence and ignorance. Islam cannot exist without hate. That alone defines it as a demon worshiping cult. There are no positive, affectionate parts to islam only hedonistic, self centred ignorant violent lust, absolutely no element of self control in a socially responsible manner.

Is this making people, mankind more happy? Is this elevating people’s minds?

Remember, this negative approach by Muslims in charge, implementing Islam, to expressing love, promoting positive emotions, comes from Islam, hence from Allah. Who supposedly intervened in the 7th century (and before). Why? What was HIS DIVINITY’s purpose?

His intervention is supposed to make the fate of mankind better. If Islam ONLY brings the same (or worse) fate of mankind than other religions or lifestyles, then His Divine Intervention did not work. For us. Humans.

And Iran shows this increasingly by it’s Islamic societal experiment. Iranians are at the very least NOT happier than the average humans. On the contrary, there seem to be much happier countries, like Denmark.

Perhaps then Allah failed? Or intervened for entire egoistic, narcissistic reasons???

Perhaps there are diverse ideologies serving mankind better for making it happier??

And who do they blame?
Not Islam…
Not their culture …
Not their leadership…
Not themselves…

And they want to change the countries they’re happy in, to be like the

It is nothing but rape, which is a close second to murder in the overall priority of crime. Islam, is a list of violent crimes that the “best of people” can perpetrate on the rest, rationalized by the demonic qur’an.

*“Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.”

– Ayatollah Khomeini, 1979

A Muslim male may have sex with an animal, however once he has finished he must slaughter the animal. He should not eat the meat himself nor should the Muslim sell the meat to anybody in his own village. Selling the meat to those from the next village is fine……..But if a Muslim should commit an act of sodomy (bugger/anal sex) with a cow, a ewe or even a camel. The animals urine and excrement become contaminated even its milk cannot be consumed. The animal should be killed as quickly as possible and the its body burnt. ~ Ayatollah Khomeni – The Little Green Book

No fun except behind closed doors it seems.
According to Amir Taheri in The Spirit of Allah: Khomeini and the Islamic Revolution (pp. 90-91), Iran’s Ayatollah Khomeini himself married a ten-year-old girl when he was twenty-eight. Khomeini called marriage to a prepubescent girl “a divine blessing,” and advised the faithful to give their own daughters away accordingly: “Do your best to ensure that your daughters do not see their first blood in your house.” When he took power in Iran, he lowered the legal marriageable age of girls to nine, in accord with Muhammad’s example.

The hypocrisy of Muslims is classic

If Iran and the Iranian people do not want to celebrate Valentine’s day, so be it. But don’t come to the US and tell us what WE can celebrate. Islam proves again it is not a religion but is a political control ideology based on intimidation and murder. When you murder someone because they left your group, it sounds more like a crime syndicate or MS13 gang culture. And all of those are based on fear that the true natures of their cults will be found out. Islam is AFRAID that former slaves to that group will tell all like it really is. Why else would you want to kill anyone leaving but to protect the cult?
