Apparently, there is no end to the depths of irrationality that our friends in Saudi Arabia will stoop to:
Human Rights Watch has appealed to Saudi Arabia to halt the execution of a woman convicted of witchcraft.
In a letter to King Abdullah, the rights group described the trial and conviction of Fawza Falih as a miscarriage of justice.
The illiterate woman was detained by religious police in 2005 and allegedly beaten and forced to fingerprint a confession that she could not read.
Among her accusers was a man who alleged she made him impotent.
This, quite frankly, is what happens when you don’t maintain a strict separation of church and state.

People will look back 100 years from now and say the same thing about something we’re currently doing.
