Did anyone see this story?

"Babies are dropped several stories for good health and good luck at a shrine in Solapur, in Maharastra, India."

Quote:
The story

In a ritual that would terrify most mothers, Indian villagers have cheered as screaming babies were dropped from a 50-foot temple tower.

For 500 years, worshippers at a Muslim shrine in western India have continued the tradition -- a rite considered to bring good health and good luck to the children.

The infants land and bounce on a bed-sheet held taut by men 50 feet below, and are quickly passed through the crowd to their mothers.


You can read the full story here.

It's interesting (and sad) that so many of these 'religious' rituals involve unsuspecting, young children - in this case infants.

You can watch the video here.

I can't even imagine how loving parents could even consider subjecting their children to this. Unreal. This world is really weird.

WOW!!

Proving the point that Islam renders people totally incapable of thinking logically and being discerning. There truly are no words for this idiocy!

A definite testimony to the existence of Baal worship in another form today.

Must be where Michael Jackson got his inspiration.
