On the Desecration of muslim Prayer Rugs

I have been told that it is blasphemous to use muslim prayer rugs as actual rugs, to pray non-muslim prayers on them (such as the Rosary, above), to use them without the proper "ablution" or washing beforehand, and to use as a woman if not well covered.

Well folks, I obviously don't give a damn.

And, as Forrest Gump said, "and that's all I have to say about that".

******************
Edit: I am afraid that I have bowed to the pressure of my family who fears for their safety as well as mine and had to remove the picture. I do not like having to give in to anyone, especially muslims whose griping about what us infidels can and cannot do inspired me to put it there in the first place. However, my family's wishes come first.

I feel rather ashamed at the moment, as I have in doing so I have done something that my great idol, Pim Fortuyn, would never have done. Especially as My Dear Professor Pim would've turned 58 yesterday on the 19th of February had he not been murdered by Volkert van der Graaf. This edit is, however, the wish of my family and I must respect that.

Never fear though, I will keep up the fight without posting pictures of myself, at least not "blasphemous" ones. And you never know, I may always reconsider, though I now apologize for my shame in taking this step.

Pim's ghost,

I am going to get one for the dog.

Actually, I use women ON the prayer rugs. It's a religious experience, you see

ROFL

Is it Ok to use the Quran for a pillow. I know it is uncomfortable, but it might enhance the religious experience.

Epaminondas said...

ok Pim..we need a glamour shot to work with..or...is that you..........?

Kiddo said...

epam, I admire your spirit.

jmj--why thank you. I acually posted the red-eye version by mistake though....let me fix that.

Is anyone else getting error messages when they post or just me?

Kiddo said...

Anon--I'm working on that photo......

jmj, you are kind, but now that I've seen my pic next to the Monica Belluci one, there's just no comparison. I just can't follow that one up. In fact, I'm not sure what female can....that's one hot Monica pic.

Epaminondas said...

so that IS you...sigh.....I'm happily married...

BUT NOT DEAD

I just opened your zip btw (that should start tongues wagging). I'll get back with you

Pim's ghost,

No need for false modesty. It is all in the eye of the beholder and you got my vote too. More importantly - more than just mere beauty - I like your attitude.

I suppose the difference might be more obvious in person, but that prayer rug doesn't really look any different from the sorts of throw rugs you can get for $30 to 40 Canadian at Wal-Mart and Zellers.

My parents had a rug with a very similar pattern as a living room rug, with a coffee table on it. Was that blasphemy?

Kiddo said...

I'm fed up with these little bastards! And trust me, no false modesty. I don't care. If others like how I look, fine by me. I look like my family as far as I'm concerned, and that is all I care about. I'm just the diasporic Ionian Greek next door....HAHAHA!

Plus, I admired Atlas's ballsy move of writing as she does and also not hiding her face. I felt like a hypocrite. So I killed 2 birds with one stone. I put up a pic and blasphemed simultaneously.

Fidothedog said...

Thats a nice looking rug, my mums got one like that.

VS: I am going to get one for the dog.

Perfect! We know how Muslims feel about dogs. Hehehe.

I'm too old to be an Infidel Babe. --sigh--

Anonymous said...

that's definitely my kind of blasphemy!

Way to go!

All of us need a prayer rug, which we can put to infidel use.

Pastorius said...

Pim's Ghost,
I told ya!

Kiddo said...

No way AOW! We're all babes. As for the dress, I wasn't trying to look fetching, but uncovered. Same with the hair. Shucks, these comments have made me all embarrassed. I was just trying to piss off the mooooosilims. As for posting it here, I just felt like a hypocrite not doing it, as it's already at Flickr, though unadmitted to. ( I really don't want to get my head cut off, even if I do want to meet Pim in the great beyond someday)

As for the rug, isn't that great?? I found it really cheap (due to its size) at an antique shop. The owner had no idea what it was. Poor him. However, newer models are available at for a decent price. Actually, someone donated one to my church and I just haven't told them what it was or how "blasphemous" their use of it is for fear that they'll remove it from it's spot in a reading area of their library!! I want all of the Christian feet on it as they read their Christian books at that sofa!! HAHAHA!!

J said...

Pim's Ghost, is it ok if I use the pic for infidel babe of the week?

and err, well done and looking good ;p

[what do you guys think about prayer rug beach towels?
or maybe bath mats?]

Pastorius said...

How about Prayer Rug Toilet Mats?

You know, the ones that go around the toilet to catch the stray urine.

Always On Watch said...

Pastorius,
I almost mentioned those toilet mats! Hehehe. Sounds like a good use to me!

Always On Watch said...

Pim's Ghost,
want all of the Christian feet on it as they read their Christian books at that sofa!! HAHAHA!!

That's wonderful! ROFL!

Well, if you count that I know how to use a firearm, I AM an infidel babe. And I can wear my Ground Zero cap and American-flag jacket while I pull the trigger.

Kiddo said...

j--oh, I'd rather you didn't, as I'm a contributor and I'd die of embarassment as well...I was just trying to make a point. Now I'm scared I'll get my head cut off! But thank you! But please find a good Jim Caviezel pic to be hunk of the week!! Or maybe I'll look.

As for the prayer rug catalog and toilet mat, right on!! I'm all for that! I'll even keep trying to learn Photoshop just to contribute some.

von Schlichtningen said...

Pim's ghost,

There is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. On the contrary.

I agree entirely with all of JMJ's remarks.

United we stand strong.

Respectfully yours,

Epaminondas said...

Too late, it's my desktop and is already illiciting comment from people yelling haram and throwing things, and others asking for a phone number and mumbling about moonlight, however in solidarity I link my own picture

Always On Watch said...

Pim's Ghost,
I have bowed to the pressure of my family who fears for their safety as well as mine and had to remove the picture.

You removed the picture for the right reasons. We need all infidels to protect themselves and their families.

As JMJ said, There is NO shame involved in your very wise act!!

And keep desecrating those prayer rugs.

Kiddo said...

Thanks guys, and thanks for the compliments folks. Truly.
