You remember this post, yes? Well, it’s not just Christians who are begging to be excised from the gene pool.

Dr Abdul Majid Katme, head of the Islamic Medical Association, is telling Muslims that almost all vaccines contain products derived from animal and human tissue, which make them “haram”, or unlawful for Muslims to take.

I don’t have to point out why this isn’t just an incredibly stupid thing to do, but also a very reckless and antisocial one, I assume?
I don’t feel sorry in the slightest for the people who are stupid enough to follow this twit’s advice (at least, not for those in the UK, where you have to try pretty hard not to know about why vaccination matters), but it’s just painful that these people will also force their decisions on their children, and, indirectly, on the people around them.

Fundamentalist religion really does just want to return to the Dark Ages, disease and all.

(Via Phil. The fact that I posted about Muslims twice in the same day is purely coincidental, but it’s worth remembering Christians aren’t the only backward theocrats out there.)
