I often knock Muslims for believing in worthless 13th century superstitions and ridiculous Islamic rituals like sacrificing animals.  But I often forget that Islam stole all of its beliefs from other religions, and it definitely got the barbaric practice of animal sacrifice from the Hindus.

 

Stupid Hindus, having a problem with high tech equipment, such as a Jumbo Jet, will, instead of reading the manual, sacrifice a goat-  because to them, appeasing the ‘god of the sky’ might get that gigantic hunk of aluminum off of the ground.

From Reuters here:

Officials at Nepal’s state-run airline have sacrificed two goats to appease Akash Bhairab, the Hindu sky god, following technical problems with one of its Boeing 757 aircraft, the carrier said Tuesday.
 
Nepal Airlines, which has two Boeing aircraft, has had to suspend some services in recent weeks due the problem.

The goats were sacrificed in front of the troublesome aircraft Sunday at Nepal’s only international airport in Kathmandu in accordance with Hindu traditions, an official said.

“The snag in the plane has now been fixed and the aircraft has resumed its flights,” said Raju K.C., a senior airline official, without explaining what the problem had been.

I will make it a point of my life to never visit any country where they sacrifice animals at the Airport.  I have already scratched Turkey off my list because of this.  Now Nepal.
