Lonely Planet: Bolivian Car Insurance - Bolivia video



Uploaded by: LonelyPlanet
Video Description:
Every weekend in Copacabana, lucky locals bring their new cars to church for a baptism. After they've dressed the car up in flowers and doused it in champagne, the priest comes around and blesses it (for a small donation, of course). It's certainly cheaper and more fun than car insurance! Bolivia video.

MUSLIMS are TERRORISTS.
MUSLIMS believe in a FALSE prophet.
Their prophet was a PEDOPHILE at best.
MUSLIMS are going to BURN to ASHES in HELL.
SCUM of the Earth.
Signed,

They're Catholics!
Muslims beleive in 1 God thats worthy of worship, not 3. Muslims follow a book revealed from God 1400+ yrs ago w/out any contradictions. Muslims condemn terrorist attacks. (hiroshima, iraq, Native Americans, hitler, stalin, vietnam...non-muslim attacks) Muslims are being attacked by the prejudices of the western media and their ignorant blind followers. Islam is the fastest growing religion for a reason. Read the Quran before swallowing Islamophobic internet B.S!

Thats indeed strange but its only logical for people to ask for divine protection in a country where many drivers dont have a license, roads have few signals and are the most dangerous in the world (the north yungas road, in the bolivian andes is ranked no 1)

Muslims are being ... ( 3 months ago by Daracon75)
Muslims are being mislead by Satan. Muslims follow a book that says men are created by a drop that comes from between a man's back and ribs (which is physically impossible). The Quran says that if 1 thing is wrong with it, all of it is wrong. So the Quran is proven wrong unequivocally.
Qur'an:9:5 "Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war."
Its obvious the Quran is false & is from Satan
Daracon75 you're ... ( 3 months ago by bubbleheadtwink)
Daracon75 you're disgusting. You are so mis-informed it saddens me. That verse is mis-interpreted and the part of the human being made by a drop is also wrong.

You have taken it out of context, this passage is correct but ONLY during the time of war against mis-believers.

Daracon- Eve did ... ( 3 months ago by twahashtini)
Daracon- Eve did come from Adam's rib which is called a miracle. Just like Jesus was born w/out a father and Mary gave birth as a virgin. As far as your verse from the Quran it's out of context & you know it. However the bible is mislead by the devil. Book filled with incest and contradictions one after another is hard to believe is from God. Incest- Prophet Lot w/2 daughters Genesis 19:1-7, Genesis 20:12, corinthians 7:36-38 the list goes on. contradictions are countless. Quran is flawless.

Way to go some the scumbag who deleted my earlier comment giving this link...
The quran is beyond flawed.
watch?v=okIg5qSyPCo
The Quran is disproven in the video above as the Quran itself states it must have no errors or it is false (and it does have errors). If you're stupid enough not to see the video and you're a believer of Islam, Well... I don't know what the hell to say to you.

Why do you call the 1st world evil? You think the U.S. does not give enough help to the world? Why does not thier government help thier own people instead of relying on every body else to help them. I come from a country that is only 122 Sq miles and our government did not say to hell with us people.
