  God save us all from religious extremists
context: Do they have a "with hijab" and maybe a "medium-light hijab" control groups to properly compare rainfall in respective areas? >
  
  That’s strange because we have had ten days of solid bucketing rain here and no one’s wearing hijabs. I don’t think this man has actually studied meteorology. >
  
  For all of human history, when rain is needed, we women have coordinated to secretly wear hajibs for just the right amount of time to make it rain the appropriate amount.
  You're welcome.
  When there are big storms and flooding, we're just screwing with you. >
  
  Global ~~drought~~ draught is tied to the checks notes emancipation of women. >
  
  *drought >
  
  I’ll take a draught, thank you. >
  
  One military draft, coming right up! >
  
  Close that window, there is a drought in here. >
  
  Did Californian women start wearing Hijab? That must be why the state is getting drenched >
  
  Same here in Michigan. >
  
  Dearborn says ‘you’re welcome’ >
  
  Dearborn isn’t so bad. Dearborn heights, where the INK leaks in and certain areas are TAYLORED for trailer parks or even the more RED-neck parts of town are where it gets bad. IYKYK >
  
  Nobody knows how to drive in Dearborn Heights. That's all I can say. I fucking hate driving through there for any reason. >
  
  More bronze age bullshit. >
  
  It's so weird to see the superstitious shit dictators would say 1000 years ago being used in the modern age. Like it's so paper thin and obviously being used to provide any justification to bring the people back into line.
  Even weirder to see how many people it works on. It's full on 1984 brain where they'll rewrite their beliefs as needed in service of the party. >
  
  My American governor asked everyone in the state to pray for rain to end our drought, instead of actually trying to do anything about the lack of water via governance. More common than you think unfortunately. >
  
  You can’t just pray for rain. Gotta at least sacrifice a few virgin goats and do the ritual rain dance when the planets are aligned. It’s a proven science. >
  
  Virgin goats? In fundamentalist religious areas? Good luck with that! >
  
  This is why God has forsaken us, smh. You're supposed to shag only the normal goats. You should always have a stock of pure extra virgin sacrificial goats saved up for these occasions. >
  
  The ability to speak does not make you intelligent. >
  
  This is directed at me, isn't it? >
  
  Yea, sorry bud. It is what it is, eh? >
  
  This is ridiculous. Everyone knows that Pudge controls the weather. >
  
  He needs his PB&J stat! >
  
  Can't give him a tuna sandwich! >
  
  That's just cannibalism with extra steps >
  
  Sure, let's make climate change women's fault too. Especially in a country where women are not even in charge. Asshole. >
  
  Imagine thinking the weather is because of women's clothes. >
  
  Come on man... Hijab means the hair is covered so rain can fall... No hijab, the hair is unprotected, it'll get wet hence no rain. Pretty obvious when you think about it >
  
  It's just science, really. >
  
  I learn so much here:) >
  
  The unscarved women of Manchester disagree >
  
  Was just about to say that it doesn't do that our grey damp British Isles. >
  
  We all know you just need to sacrifice a goat to fix that! It's fucking science man. >
  
  Sky Daddy loves bbq >
  
  Same shit as American tv preachers blaming hurricanes and earthquakes on homosexuality. >
  
  Imagine living under a regime of televangelists. That's been the fate of so many under the Ayatollahs and Hezbollah. >
  
  
  Imagine living under a regime of televangelists.
  
  Don't have to imagine since I've lived through Republican regimes for decades. >
  
  I’m sorry but that isn’t even slightly comparable to the atrocities Iranian government commits on its people. >
  
  it's medium-comparable in Texas and Alabama >
  
  let me know when your women are forced to wear hijabs, you are stoned to death for being gay and you can’t wear shorts in the city. >
  
  if you want me to let you know about every person killed for being lgbtq for texas you will be getting notifications from me every \~3 weeks >
  
  Witcher Season 4, and Venture Brothers Season 8 won't happen because of Women without a hijab. /s >
  
  As far as witcher goes, we might be better off.... >
  
  Keep those hijabs off specifically so we don't get The Witcher season 4. >
  
  This is what it’s like when subreddits collide. >
  
  Are you ready to go? >
  
  Cause I’m ready to go >
  
  What ya gonna do >
  
  So God will punish you because women faces aren’t coveted but totally fine with men forcing young girls to merry them, taking women as punishment or killing them and all over the world priest have abused their power by raping children
  They think that’s fine but not covering the face yeah sure that’s the real issue >
  
  You probably know this but they are raping the women arrested for protesting in Iran so they can't go to heaven after they're executed. Yep, totally God's plan. >
  
  Yeah 
  It’s unthinkable crimes like this that show how BS religion is treated in the world
  I don’t care if your god allows it, also why would you want to worship a guy who wants your daughter/wife raped for a piece of cloth.
  It’s too illogical to be written by a god more like men trying to control women and try to control them and just being on a power trip. >
  
  Aisha didn't seem to like Muhammed very much either; there are tons of passages that come off as absolutely scathing. >
  
  Can someone point out a few? >
  
  Bullshit! I live in Ireland where nobody wears a hijab and its never done fucking raining. >
  
  The men could just as easily wear hijabs to bring rain. >
  
  Damn these lot really stuck in the dark ages… maybe try sacrificing some live stock? >
  
  Don't give him any ideas. >
  
  Old man yells at cloud. >
  
  Inhibitor hijabs prevent women from using their weather controlling superpowers. >
  
  I like how in the photo it looks like he’s saying “You see that, right? I mean it’s obvious…” >
  
  That's right.  All the humans in the amazon follow strict Islamic rules to make sure it rains there frequently.  See here we have religion seriously holding back logical, scientific and reasonable thought.
  What a poison on humanity relgion is. >
  
  And conversely all those Muslim countries in the Middle East where they force women to cover up are so well-known for all their heavy rainfall, right? >
  
  I remember when Pat Robertson said Hurricane Katrina happened because God was angry about abortion - I'm confused, do these guys think women's rights cause more rain, or less rain? Does he flip a coin? >
  
  It's probably just an accelerant. You know how Adderall speeds up most people but slows down people with ADHD? Human virtue causes the same kind of split with the weather: wetter in wet places and dryer in dry.
  I know this because I murdered a bunch of dudes in Colorado so it would stop raining and I could walk to Casa Bonita. But when I murdered a bunch of dudes in Houston, hurricane Ida happened. >
  
  Medieval morons >
  
  This is what happens when religion becomes central in government. We don’t want this in the US do we? I’m looking at you, Christian nationalists. >
  
  Jewish space lasers gazpacho lady says yes. >
  
  She’s not the only one. The fact that people like that can get elected should be a wake-up call. >
  
  It's hard to find this kind of news amusing when they're out torturing and murdering people... Fuck these guys. >
  
  It makes just as much sense as any other religion. It's all nonsense. >
  
  For real. It takes some serious cognitive dissonance to believe that this is absurd but believing in a virgin birth and a resurrection is normal. >
  
  It would just be terrible if he were to be struck by lightning. I definitely don't hope that happens >
  
  Three fucking times I read the title as Iron Man before my brain worked >
  
  BAD THING HAPPEN WHEN WOMEN >
  
  Hope this guy gets tased in the balls. >
  
  Oh ffs >
  
  How does anybody hear messages like this and not realize everything out of his mouth is BS? >
  
  We've been getting lots of rain in Michigan. It must be all the women in Hijabs here >
  
  certain aspects of the Handmaid's tale are quite real in the middle east. >
  
  This is some of the dumbest shit I've ever read. Fuck my brain hurts at this stupidity... >
  
  Man, they really hate women don't they? >
  
  So what he's saying is women are capable of way more than men? Women can control the weather so men fear them and force them to wear a piece of cloth? >
  
  234 million years ago it rained continuously for 2 million years.
  Guess what? No hijab. >
  
  California has a lot of women wearing Hijabs apparently >
  
  I say less rain is Allah’s message to men for assaulting, criminalizing and killing women for exhibiting their sovereignty. >
  
  Of course. The rain doesnt want to get their hair wet. >
  
  Such considerate clouds >
  
  I didn't realize women in California all started wearing hijab all of a sudden? \s >
  
  If there's one thing I trust religious leaders with its science >
  
  Iran doesn’t get more than 12”/30 cm of rain annually… because it’s the fucking MIDDLE EAST!!!
  That revolution back in the 70’s sure as fuck didn’t make Iran a lush, verdant paradise, did it?!? >
  
  It rains all the time in England. Muslim Women would you mind?? >
  
  The Iranian imam is not only misogynistic he’s downright stupid. >
  
  Funny that Muslim countries are often desert countries then. Meanwhile the bare-headed European countries are extremely soggy. >
  
  Religion hates women >
  
  All religion is trash. >
  
  Agreed >
  
  I spoke to God, and she said "Yo what up", and that the less rain is because Iran is run by evil men who do terrible things in her name. >
  
  I think you called the wrong number, cause i just called it, and it said it's cause you wore the wrong sock on the wrong foot >
  
  Weird because Los Angeles is getting near record rainfall this week and last and almost no one here wears a hijab. >
  
  Lack of rain couldn't possibly be due to men abusing women....I mean, that's just crazy talk. >
  
  Stay on school kids!  Ignorance will be our demise. >
  
  Anyone else complete fed up with all this bullshit. If you believe it's not raining because some women doesn't wear something on her head, you should be In some sort of assisted living facility with a rubber helmet on. >
  
  LMFAO >
  
  We have nude beaches in California right now and check those out. Underwater! Everything is!! >
  
  i see why andrew tate converted >
  
  What’s up with these religious regimes simultaneously saying women are second-class and should barely have rights, yet also saying women are so powerful that their clothing or behavior controls the weather/nature?  Which is it? >
  
  Funnily enough a preacher in Turkey said there are floods because of women with no hijab, so one of them is lying. >
  
  Cavemen. >
  
  Crazy evil bastard. May the revolution take him down. >
  
  Does he know about pirates - the proven cause of global warming. >
  
  Arabian desert says hi >
  
  Interesting, I know a group of woman who dance naked in the night to help with rain problems. Seems to work great! >
  
  Here in Maine the lack of snow must be also due to lack of Hijab.  When WILL us women stop ruining everything? >
  
  Religion is so weird and it’s not just Muslims. Christian’s were saying California forest fires were due to “lack of faith” and “not voting Republican”. >
  
  If gay people cause hurricanes and women without hijabs cause droughts then they should legalize both so they combine into a gentle rain. >
  
  California disagrees >
  
  The women should hold the country hostage and sell their rain-making services. >
  
  Welcome to the desert, motherfucker. >
  
  It makes sense since they don't have a cover for their heads when it rains, so make it not rain since they expose their heads now. Hair gets wet easier >
  
  …And the Lord saw the insolence unto him that was the uncovered ponytail of women and said ‘No fucking rain for you😡’ >
  
  Reporter: Are you just high or incredibly stupid? 
  Imam: I assure you, I am not high >
  
  Weird because Cali is getting hit with a ton of rain and they love their bikinis >
  
  Do they know that they're the laughingstock of the world right now? >
  
  Don’t forget their menstrual blood will spoil the crop harvest and attract demons. >
  
  Ask the imam for an explanation of why it still rains in other countries where the hijab isn't prevalent. >
  
  The real depressing part of this is there’s people who’ll believe this shit >
  
  Why are religious leaders so God damn thick? >
  
  Religion will cause the next mass extinction >
  
  How do people still follow any religion where their religious figures are absolute idiots? >
  
  Religion really is just madlibs for power hungry crazy people isn't it? >
  
  Imagine what an excellent world this would be if every religious fanatic suddenly vanished off the face of the earth (including the ones pretending to be for political power) >
  
  Mother nature isn't wet enough with his hairy face. He's gotta do something about it. >
  
  This is why religion sucks. >
  
  The Islamic Revolution is a lesson doomed to repeat is self with fundamentalists christians, most noticeably America. 
  Religion is bullshit and these are the kind of people who thinks lack of rain = defiance in woman, not the years of oppression. 
  This is the logic that runs in the mind of the cookoo religious fruitcakes, "running" important institutions. >
  
  Oh no, he discovered our secret power to control the weather. >
  
  Too bad there isn’t a volcano in Iran the Iman can throw virgin girls in to appease the rain god. 
  Oh, wait…. >
  
  I (and mi mam) says Iran Imam a result of antiquated bronze age reasoning! >
  
  So Iranian leaders are ignorant too? Sorry, ignorant is a big word. Stupid. Men are hiding behind religion to abuse, subjugate, and kill women. Either the men are wrong or the religion is wrong. Women need to make the wrong thing go away, to make things better. >
  
  I want to see a Netflix series, that's just Greta Thornburg talking about these assholes small dick energy. >
  
  Somehow this statement is actually more progressive than your average republican since he at least acknowledges climate change exists >
  
  As far as I know, persian people is very well educated. It must be a torture to have those morrons dictate everything >
  
  TIL religious fruitcakes also have very low IQs >
  
  Really? You only just came to this conclusion? >
  
  He seems smart.  
  But also, sounds like American Christians who blame tornadoes on "the gays". >
  
  HAHAHAHA! These fucking people. Sometimes I wonder how religious people have survived this long. >
  
  Religion melts your brain. >
  
  I seriously don't understand how people this out of touch with reality manage to even go about their daily lives, let alone become a powerful fucking figure. >
  
  It's called demagoguery. >
  
  That’s not how this works. That’s not how ANY of this works. >
  
  Reminds me of the Utah governor saying all the Mormons need to pray for rain, or it won’t rain. Lmao >
  
  All religions are shit soup for the soul. The sooner reddit stops blanket defending all non christan religions the better. The absolute hatred allowed against christianity needs to be applied to all world religions because each one is bad for the world. The supernatural has no place outside of fictional media.
  Since this is reddit im not defending christianity I'm saying being angry at them alone is like playing wack a mole but only hitting the same spot over and over while the rest get to do as they please. I'm firmly in the camp that religions are one of the paradoxes of tolerance. Religions cannot coexist with others not like them. I'd like to see the end of freedom of religion and see a freedom from religion.
  For those of you who don't agree keep tolerating the things that want to destroy you and see what happens.... >
  
  [looks out window] It has been raining for 17 days straight >
  
  ...because it didn't rain prior to creation of Islam and the hijab... >

  According to Christian Taliban leaders in the US, Katrina was caused by the gays and other debauched people in New Orleans. >
  
  This is the perfect example that religion is nothing but a tool. >
  
  Stupid religion is stupid, like the people preaching it. >
  
  Well I didn't like what Imam said so I went and asked Idad >
  
  The amount of overlap between Iranian, Saudi, and Christian Conservative politicians in the US is too damn high. These people just love controlling the lives of others. >
  
  In America, the right wing religious zealots blame gay people for bad weather.
  They may be a world apart physically, but not so much ideologically. >
  
  Religious whackos will say anything to flog that old time religion. >
  
  As an American, I can't quite put my finger on it, but that sure sounds like something I've heard here before. 🤔🤔🤔 >
  
  Superstitious dumb fucks. >
  
  How can they be sure it’s not because they neglected to push a virgin into a volcano? >
  
  It's 2023 and there are still dumb ass mfs in positions of power saying shit like this. We're never going to have those flying cars they had in the Jetsons at this rate. >
  
  Or maybe it’s because you’re executing your best and brightest? >
  
  " Iran Imam says...." stop right there...we dont give a fuck. >
  
  I think the problem is the rooms he is in no one is laughing properly at him >
  
  Wow, didn't know we had that much power over mother nature?!?! >
  
  In other words, get struggling farmers/food insecure people to police and punish the young upstarts. Very sad. >
  
  I wouldn't want to fuck with women who can control the weather with their clothes. >

  It breaks my brain to think people are this stupid. >
  
  What year is it? >
  
  What is must be like to live four centuries sgo >
  
  I hate religion nowadays. All of them. Blame anything terrible that happens on people not following your rule book. It's pathetic and sad. >
  
  Yeah, see?  So when an American Christian says CA is being punished by rain for [gays, abortion, immigrants, etc], it sounds just as ridiculous. >
  
  Imam is confused about what makes women wet. >
