Lindy, they stereotype themselves - they uniformly kneel in long rows, like sardines in a giant can. Rows and rows of mindless zombies, obeying the Mullahs. By design, it's almost impossible to pick out an individual, which is what makes stereotypes work. Actually, religious zealotry proceedings are quite similar in 'free' countries. Hail to the Priest! Down with the individual and that silly old free-will and freedom stuff.
Meanwhile, stoning to death - another charming cultural artifact of the medieval Matrix of Malevolence Mullahs' mad mindset: story.news.yahoo.com
Of course we shouldn't stereotype stoning. That would be racist.
However, those people are 98% chimp DNA, and the 2% that's non-chimp they mindlessly hand over to the tender mercies of the mad mullahs, so it isn't surprising that they come up with barbarianism. Actually, of that 2%, only about quarter of it would be to do with thinking, so it's really not surprising that a good stoning is considered good form.
