Asked on a religious website if it was permissible for fathers to build snowmen for their children after a snowstorm in the country’s north, Sheikh Mohammed Saleh al-Munajjid replied: “It is not permitted to make a statue out of snow, even by way of play and fun.”

Quoting from Muslim scholars, Munajjid argued that to build a snowman was to create an image of a human being, an action considered sinful under the kingdom’s strict interpretation of Sunni Islam

Heh, I saw that earlier today.

Just when you thought things couldn't get much kookier.

Some of the supporters comments on a few sites even whackier, supporting the all knowing wisdom of the clerics pertaining to these matters.

Let me get this straight...
Cleric does something retarded but instead of jabbing him you take the opportunity to stick it to us. Afraid he'd issue a fatwa on you next?

Cleric is clearly a raging moron - no question about that.

But, please, go on and feel victimized by my comment - it's expected.

My favorite clerics dont exist in real life.

Thats how religion should be: On my table top with dice and root beer.
