Saudi Arabia in Moral Free Fall

By this time next year, Saudi Arabia will more than likely have a string of HOOters restaurants. The country is on the edge of a slippery slope, and it's starting to slide. I, for one, am appalled.

Picture this: the equivalent of a Saudi Starbucks. It's teeming with young people slurping down frappuccinos and scones...or dates or something. The shop is segregated, however, because it's immoral for men and women to socialize with one another unless they're actually related. Get this: THEY'RE SOCIALIZING IN SECRET!!!! Bluetooth technology is making it possible for boys and girls to communicate without their Jerry Falwel (who actually has authority there) busting them and bringing shame to their families. They send each other cute little text messages, "I saw your ankle. NIIIICE!" But now, they can also send each other pictures. Men get to see beyond the burka with these evil gadgets.

I'm just sick about it. It's too late for America, but it's not to late for Saudi Arabia. Get rid of technology. It's your only chance.


Um, this post was written in extreme haste.
