I heard that Luc Besson is going to adapt this story, to give it a French twist.

Bob Ellison કહ્યું...

Oh, it's a little funny.

Kinda like the Millet scandalof '86, when Wheat and Corn were in cahoots.

You're right --- it's not funny.

It's H-I-Larious.

madAsHell કહ્યું...

by forcefully cutting the beards and hair of Amish men and women

Bearded ladies??

Toad Trend કહ્યું...

Intradenominational disputes are rarely funny.

This isn't just two women fighting over a brownie at a church social.

Revenant કહ્યું...

It is kinda funny.

Shanna કહ્યું...

It's not funny.

Sure it is.

AllenS કહ્યું...

It's not funny, until you made it funny, then, it's really funny.

traditionalguy કહ્યું...

Hair-larious. It sounds like fraternity hazing.

Toad Trend કહ્યું...

If you're a Python fan then you probably think its funny.

Cue the fish slapping video, one bad Mullet deserves another.

BarrySanders20 કહ્યું...

Of course its funny. Religion makes people do, say, and think funny things.

Splitters!

Lucien કહ્યું...

Not funny, it's barberous! Something must be seriously amish when such extra-follicular activities occur. Were any of the men who got clipped the victims of automatic weapons (electric clippers)? 'Cause I thought that wasn't allowed.

Lucien કહ્યું...

And by the way, it's spelled "Mullet", but pronounced "Moo-lay".

Carol_Herman કહ્યું...

I still don't think you have to fear the Amish.

The Tim Tebow Friar Tuck is the best haircut ever.

The Crack Emcee કહ્યું...

It's not funny.

Then why am I laughing?

Wince કહ્યું...

"It's not funny."

Hmm. I dunno.

I let you know... after I mull it over.

gerry કહ્યું...

The headline is so Drudgean. Very good.

gerry કહ્યું...

By the way, is this Amish terrorism?

Wince કહ્યું...

I heard that after the attack, some of the Amish bought cheap toupees.

As they say, the cover-up is worse than the crime.

Robert કહ્યું...

EDH is funny.

cassandra lite કહ્યું...

It's not funny in the same way that a piano falling on a Yorkshire terrier isn't funny.

Synova કહ્યું...

It's funny and it's not, of course. It's hilarious that the guy's name is Mullet. Can't get away from that one.

What he was doing wasn't funny. There was more to it than the hair cutting. Yes, that's humiliating for the people it happens to, but it's not as if they believe that God is going to see it as their own disobedience. It's a community humiliation, which is bad, too, but hair grows back.

It is an assault, of course, and Mullet and his followers are criminal, no doubt.

But what might get missed is that Mullet is mad because the rest of the church presumes to see itself in authority over him. I'm quite certain that there is nothing in Amish theology that suggests a leader gets to have sex with his followers as a religious action. This is text book cultism and it's the reason for organized religion.

We forget that when we fuss over the failings of organized religion, but the point of it is accountability and a brake on utter crack-pots like Mullet (or Phelps.)

Adagio for Strings should be playing.

Man ruins everything.

DT 2012;
I think this Python skit may also apply.

ken in tx કહ્યું...

In the Bible, there is a case of some ambassadors having their beards shaved and their robes cut short enough to show their buttocks as a way of not accepting their entreaties.
