Everyone wants to blame someone or something for everything that goes wrong. Mother Nature does her thing and we look for a scapegoat to make ourselves feel better, because random destruction is scary. A Muslim cleric in Iran put the blame for recent earthquakes squarely on women. "Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes," Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi was quoted as saying by Iranian media. Sedighi is Tehran's acting Friday prayer leader.
