The LA Atheism Examiner:
Are Saudi Arabian clerics running wild?
Sheikh Abdel Mohsen Obeikan, a former royal court advisor with his own radio program, "Fatwas On the Air", caused an international stir a few weeks ago when he issued a fatwa (IE: religious edict) allowing unrelated men and women to mingle in public so long as a woman allows the guy to drink her breast milk in order establish a maternal bond.
[...]
Now, however, the Kingdom is striking back. A royal decree from King Abdullah, Custodian of the Two Mosques, has restricted the issuing of fatwas to only those clerics approved of by His Majesty and his authorities.
