    Airline sacrifices goats to appease sky god

    http://www.reuters.com/article/oddlyEno ... 6020070905

    KATHMANDU (Reuters) - Officials at Nepal's state-run airline have sacrificed two goats to appease Akash Bhairab, the Hindu sky god, following technical problems with one of its Boeing 757 aircraft, the carrier said Tuesday.

    Nepal Airlines, which has two Boeing aircraft, has had to suspend some services in recent weeks due the problem.

    The goats were sacrificed in front of the troublesome aircraft Sunday at Nepal's only international airport in Kathmandu in accordance with Hindu traditions, an official said.

    Would you fly in those planes??

    Would you bet your life that sacrificing to idols makes you safer?
    'Tolerance' just means 'Take it!'
    It's not about conforming your mind to reality — but conforming reality to your mind (your mind over matter, not matter over you).
