I don't think that "honest inquiry" would include jokes about raping babies. I ignored every person who commented on the subject. I don't feel like being mocked. I also didn't find it amusing.

Trust me -- they aren't joking. They aren't jokes -- there are pagans whose writings and teachings have resulted in children being raped, who are still treated with respect within the larger pagan community for some reason. Go read up on the Frosts.

I just looked it up on Amazon.

TJ gave that book five stars.

Five ******** stars.

As if you didn't need a reason to hate him before, five ******** stars.

Which book? If the frosts are one thing, it's well-published. Ugh.

Never mind, found it. Well, that's another reason not to pay any mind to timmeh.

The one I just quoted, the Good Witches Bible.

This book is a classic "must have", and is one you must read for yourself.

Most reviews seem to be written by people who prejudged the book based on hearsay rather than reading the book itself.

There is a good deal of high-quality information, as well as some which is very controversial. The book will challenge your preconceived ideas about Wicca/Witchcraft; you won't agree with everything, but you can find information that is interesting & valuable.

There is significant worth in a book "they" don't want you to read.

Remember Kiddies, if unprotected kiddie rape isn't bad enough, there's always the chance you might catch Hep C or HIV via their "marriage" ritual.

Sure... let me just go sand my bat isn't a joke?

I'm sure there Are people who have written things which have resulted in children being raped people being killed etc. In more then just the Pagan community. I'm hostile towards such people. I don't want to associate with people who would talk about such things so flippantly. Its a choice based on my knowledge.

I can understand how a person might misinterpret relativism for me saying hay just because someone thinks this they are "right" I never once stated that. I don't believe in Objectivity, that's completely different.

My reaction is that if you want to rape babies you can I will kill you for it... thats my reaction. If someone ever touched my child they would die.

My reaction to people making jokes about raping babies is that you Can I will block you for it.

Asking me specifically how I would react to someone raping a child would be an honest inquiry. Talking about sanding bats isn't.

The problem, and I think the point of what they were saying, is that from a position of relativism, you can't make that sort of judgment about it. You've already consented that if they were okay with raping a baby, then you are too. Not to mention, from a relativist perspective, you're pretty much okay with them raping baby rapists with unsanded bats. Or Viking bats.

...perhaps I'm the one misinterpreting, but that wasn't a joke about raping babies -- but about the sort of justice the baby rapists should reap. Very gallows humor.

No, I'm not misinterpreting. You are.

Myself, I thought it was just an extreme example of what is being argued in an attempt to show how absurd the position is.

There's room for liberal positions, but come on! Don't leave it so open ended that you're thoughtless about what you are endorsing.

In another guild someone said "All you need is love". I think I brought up The Family International- Frostian Assholes with Christian framework.

Well, how about "All you need is love and discernment."

Let's argue in favor of being responsible and thoughtful- rather then for Freedom for the sake of Freedom at the expense of responsibility.

Try interpreting things correctly before you speak.

Tsktsk Sweetie, don't you know that since there is no objective way to interpret what you say- she can misrepresent whatever she wants and be correct? wink
