LMFAO. And I thought the source for this was going to be "The Onion". Guess you can ask for anything, can't you?

Good plan - let's base everything on the rantings of an illiterate pedophile with an inferiority complex.

It looks like I'm a few hours late and you took my line!

I really hope this is a sick joke.

As for the infidel stuff. I am all for it. However, I dare anyone to wear the "indidel" in Arabic t-shirt in Mecca. I would definitely be too chicken (and too smart) to wear it there. Would you?

However, I would feel more comfortable wearing a "Heathen" shirt here in the USA....at least in most places.
