Valentine is evil

by NicoleB Email

And a Pagan ritual.

That’s what one MP in Kuwait figured out in the last few days.
It also spreads immorality and opposes Islamic laws.

Somewhere along the road someone must have told him, it’s actually coming from Christianity and from a Saint. But do we care?

No Valentines greetings on the radio either.

But they couldn’t empty the shops, it seems, or didn’t wanna loose the income?
Mr. MP woke up a bit late with his idea of banning Valentines in Kuwait.
Oh well, maybe next year.

No red roses in Saudi Arabia. Spreading immorality with red roses. Bad thing to do!
And don’t even think about wearing something red tomorrow - could get you arrested.
More about Saudi Arabia on Hamsa

and here’s more on the Pagan practices in the Arab times for Kuwait.

Kuwait is run by a bunch of idiots! Valentines celebrates the priest which was getting the couples back in the Rome (I guess) married, because the king or whatever he was called made it illegal for anyone to get married, so after they knew they killed him!
I don't mind not celebrating valentines, but we should take his acts in prospective! Life isn't just about dealing with money and having fun! It's about mating lol!

I know a few single people here who would like to ban Valentine's day - but only from their own consciousness. Getting arrested for wearing red... now that's a different culture!

Ah, I don't care too much, Sandy.
I rather have the red roses when they don't cost a fortune ;)


I don't know, Joel. It irritated me a bit too ;)

That is ridiculous - they seem so strict about the simplest things.

I wouldn't mind it, if it would make sense ;)

But with not being able to phrase it right "Pagan rituals"
