Every year, thousands of Shia worshippers take part in the ceremonies, performed to mourn the death of Husayn ibn Ali, a grandson of the Prophet Muhammad. The commemorations take place on Ashura, the tenth day of the first month of the Islamic calendar. They mark Husayn's death at the Battle of Karbala, fought between Husayn and Yazid I on October 10 680AD to determine who should succeed the prophet as the leader of Islam.
"Others worry that it presents a negative image of their faith"....Ya think???

Positively Darwinian. Violently holding on to a family feud some 1400 years later. Anyone one ever wonder why no scientific advances or even world class universities exist within this world. They are so anti-science that they make excellent democrats.

They are members of a barbaric cult, not a religion.

Faith in what, the functionality of a knife?
If there is any doubt that Islam is an insane cult, it has been removed by the practitioners themselves. If they are cutting heads to look for brains they are going to come away disappointed.
It would serve society better if they would cut off the male reproductive organs.

No wonder they all want to commit suicide (and take us with them). Keep slicing.

The Muslim god asks his followers to shed their blood for him.
The Christian God shed his blood for us.

So the would-be successors of Muhammad FOUGHT to see who would lead the Prophet's people.
In Christianity, after Jesus had died, was risen from the dead, and then ascended into heaven, 11 apostles met to determine who would fill the gap left by Judas Iscariot, who had betrayed Jesus into the hands of his murderers and who had subsequently committed suicide from the resulting sense of guilt.
The 11 apostles had two candidates from which to choose. To do so, they cast lots -- they rolled the dice or drew straws essentially. Who would be the lucky winner?
Given the fact that all but two of those 12 apostles were martyred the "lucky winner" wasn't so lucky after all. And at least one of those two who were not martyred suffered arrest and exile.
For Christians, leadership is supposed to be about self-sacrifice in service to others in need. Christian leaders who challenge the injustices of society often pay a heavy price.

I Kings 18:28 — “So they yelled louder and, in accordance with their prescribed ritual, mutilated themselves with swords and spears until their bodies were covered with blood.” — NET Bible. (About the prophets of Baal). This bloody business is projected into the 21st century by 7th century barbarians inspired by 9th century B.C. idolaters.

The important thing to remember is that those Barbarians believe that you should convert to Islam and inflict the same level of violence upon your children.
