Monks Brawl at Jerusalem Shrine





Um. This whole "love your neighbor" thing? You're doing it wrong.



(reminiscent of this event)

This is my fave bit:

The Israeli government has long wanted to build a fire exit in the church, which regularly fills with thousands of pilgrims and has only one main door, but the sects cannot agree where the exit will be built.

A ladder placed on a ledge over the entrance sometime in the 19th century has remained there ever since because of a dispute over who has the authority to take it down.

When friends of mine want to discard all religious thought, this is the kind of stuff they point to. It's just that religion doesn't have a monopoly on this sort of thing.

LOL (your comment, not the brawl ... the brawl just makes me want to slap a hand to my forehead)
