No biofuels for Pepe

Planet Gore-Pepe conflicted: An Islamic scholar in Saudi Arabia said using ethanol or other alcohol-derived fuels in vehicles may be a sin for Muslims. Najimi said Muslims who use biofuel, which is made from fermented plants, in their cars are violating the ban since the substance "is basically made up of alcohol."

Actually, I also think it's a sin to use God-given food as fuel. I won't put a fatwa on ethanol, though -- simply not use it. No way, José.
