Here's a wacky, irreverant question, which I hope you all won't take too seriously, but consider this: Czar Nicholas II was disgusted with the stubbornly backward thinking of the Russian aristocracy. He figured that if these men were forced to be more modern, they would stop thinking like it was still the Middle Ages. So, he ordered them all clean shaven. (if they refused, he had guards pluck out their whiskers one by one until they relented)
Would this work for the unwashed, undereducated, bearded Taliban crew? Are they still thinking like it's 700 A.D. because they look the part?

Religious beliefs can't be argued. Muslims believe they should have beards because Muhammad ( peace on him ) had a beard.
That's stupid reasoning. He also never lived in an air conditioned palace, he never strapped TNT to his belly, he never rode in a automobile or airplane.
If present day Muslims want to live the life of Mohammad( peace on him ) then they shouldn't select certain things to copy from him, but all things.

Helps keep the lice out of their hair and ears. Besides, they are SO much funnier looking with those dumb-assed beards!

Something causes them to be the way they are. I think it is their religion that causes them to act like Idiots The Koran doesn't help...Beards top it all off.
