A beauty competition for goats began on Wednesday in Saudi Arabia
, as part of an auction bringing together traders and herders in the holy Muslim city of Mecca.Auction supervisor Fawzi al-Subhi said that over 170 animals are competing for the coveted title ‘most beautiful goat.’ He expects the winner to be sold for at least 18,000 dollars.
According to al-Shams newspaper, the four-legged contestants are purebred Hijazi goats, a distinct breed named after the province in which Mecca is located.

Ah, the thousand dollar a night goats.
PhilipJames commented:
Does this mean that the winner gets to be buggered by the judging panel after the lights go out? Or are all the top goats passed around? After all, you have to respect your women, right?
Henry Hawkins commented:
Well, this hardly different than dog shows and cattle auctions. Still, the goat in the picture IS pretty hot……

Does the winning goat get eaten or f@cked?
ar05075 commented:
oops, looks like most of us had the same thought.
Paul Ben commented:
“The purpose of the competition is to raise awareness about the breed, said al-Subhi.”
You’re on the islamic assassination list, Jim Hoft.
Posting a photo of Muhammad depicted as a goat is against Islam.
You might have good intentions as to “raising awareness about the breed,” but the least you could have done is covering the goat’s hair with a headscarf.

Jingo commented:
In Mecca, the city so sacred, we filthy Kafirs cannot enter upon penalty of death.
And you just know the other goats will say the winner slept with the judges.

Did Helen Thomas enter the contest?
She might have a chance if only old goats are allowed to enter…

Call me naive but do a few in that culture have relations with an animal such as this?

How did that old joke go? The Arabs invented the condom, but the British were the first to remove it from the sheep before use.
DINORight commented:
This is the beginning of how they select their goat sacrifices, I believe. Choose the prettiest then slaughter them. They still perform animal sacrifices in Islam.
They don’t have a Savior who died for them, so they continue animal sacrifice.
I personally believe (I’ve never seen this opinion written in anything I’ve read specifically about Islam, or that this is a “surah” from the Koran) that their belief in still needing a sacrifice is a reason why they are so glad to become martyrs: they believe they are a living “holy” sacrifice for “jihad” – a human sacrifice – as is expected in their religion. Just like the pagans of old, the ancient Caananites, etc., from the region performed human sacrifices. Why the Muslims today don’t see this, I’ll never know.
They are probably too ignorant of what happened before, since they can’t read anything that might enlighten them about their ancestry, the past, the Bible, real history not revised by the mullahs/jihadis/etc. So sad. So dangerous.
Poor goats.
Mary Ellen/Nunly commented:
They will have to stone that goat to death…it has “seditious eyes”. Poor goat.
MrGoodWench commented:
So what do the goats have to do for talent show ?
Sing like Arianna Huffington ? Blink like Nazi Policei ? Shake booty like Hussain ?
I hate to describe how the goats will be judged for
” Miss Congeniality ”

Harumph. Don’t most horror movies that deal with Satan usually feature a goat? How fitting goats are so popular in the Middle East…
Mitch Rapp commented:
Do the Saudi Goats still give massages?
Francesca commented:
Fret not, people. There are also Camel Beauty Contests where the winner brings in BIG, BIG money. Tens of thousands if not more. IMO, goats are more beautiful than camels.
Henry Hawkins commented:
Goats are better for breeding. I tried camel breeding once, but I wasn’t tall enough.
AuntieMadder commented:
DINORight, I think you’ve given this more thought than any Muslim scholar (another oxymoron) has and because you’re intelligent and so you therefore want to understand, your explanation of why they sacrifice themselves is far more sophisticated than any out of Islam itself. You give them way too much credit.
Their god wants every inhabitant of this world to worship him and won’t be satisfied until all the world is Islam. He doesn’t desire the hearts of humans, as the god of Jews and Christians does, so he’s totally cool with conversion at the end of the sword. Whether they do so willingly doesn’t matter, just so long as they praise him five times per day and has entire control over everything they do and say for every moment of their entire lives. What they think and feel about him isn’t of his concern, either, but they’d better not speak ill of him out loud or he’ll roast them in Hell forever.
(Their god gleefully turns the spit as he rotisserizes non-believers and Muslim “hypocrites.”
Qur’an 104:4 “He will be sure to be thrown into that which breaks him into pieces, flung to the Consuming One. And what will explain to you that which Breaks him into Pieces, Consuming and Crushing? It is the fire kindled by Allah which leaps up over them penetrating the hearts of men.” [Allah is in hell, kindling the fire.] http://prophetofdoom.net/Islamic_Quotes_Hell.Islam )
So, to please their god, every Muslim should spend his entire life working toward this goal. It doesn’t matter how many conversions he’s forced and/or how many non-believers he’s killed, if a Muslim is still strong enough to force conversions and murder infidels, that’s what he should be doing.
Qur’an:9:91 “There is no blame on those who are old, weak, ill, or who find no resources to spend (on Jihad, holy fighting), if they are sincere (in duty) to Allah and His Messenger.”
Qur’an:33:22 “The Believers said: ‘This is what Allah and his Messenger promised us.’ It added to their faith, obedience, and submission. Among the Believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah and have gone out for Jihad (holy fighting). Some have completed their vow to extreme (and have been martyred) fighting and dying in His Cause, and some are waiting, prepared for death in battle.”

There’s a Quranic verse that I’m not able to cite right now because, unfortunately, I need to wrap this up and get going. (It can be found at prophetofdoom.net.) It describes MooHamHead’s (pigsnot be upon him) answer to the question of what can a man do to be sure to avoid eternity in hell. He responded that dying for allah’s cause is the only guaranteed way to avoid spending eternity in hell.

Unfair advantage. What goats have going for them is that they don’t have to wear the black tent.
A guy could get stuck with a really ugly wife because of the burkha.
With the goat, not so much.
Hangtown Bob commented:
In the talent competition, the winning goat sang “Ewe Are So Beautiful”.

The rules are that yea votes will be symbolized on a tote board as an erection and nays as a dangling dong. Of course woman will not be allowed to vote but do get sloppy seconds.

Obviously the goat answered the same sex marriage question correctly.
