AgentOrange and the Screencaps of Feminazi Doom

I think Meller may have stolen the 5 gold rings, though, in the hopes that they will one day be legal tender and usable in the Houses of Entertainment.

I’m reminded of a book I read that I can no longer remember the title of which involved a bunch of students in a cafeteria rallying together and yelling “WE’RE ALL SLUTS!”

WE’RE ALL WHORES!

I think it’s time for some real Christian music.

Perhaps NWO watched the new Sherlock Holmes.

On the Twelfth day of Christmas, En-wo gave to me:
12 babies slutting
11 proteins folding
10 whores a-whoring
9 titles IXing
8 jews a-scheming
7 books a-lying
6 dogs evolving
5 ZIEEEEE CREEEAAAATUREEEEES
4 russian letters
3 living rocks
2 rape excuses
And a flouride conspiracy!

And told her to stop being a whore. Not goeth and rally slutwalks.

Funny thing about slutwalks: the point isn’t only that women can have as much sex as they like without being despised for it, although that is one of the points.

The point is mainly that there is no such thing as “asking for it.”. The responsibility for rape rests with the rapist. That is the message of Slutwalk.

Do you know who else said that? St. Augustine.

Here he is on rape. It’s from the beginning of City of God, where he describes the rape of female monastics during the sack of Rome. Many pagan Romans felt that the raped women had lost their honor, and that it could only be regained by killing themselves; if these women did not kill themselves, it could only mean that Christianity was morally bankrupt. In response, Augustine said this:

Let this, therefore, in the first place, be laid down as an unassailable position, that the virtue which makes the life good has its throne in the soul, and thence rules the members of the body, which becomes holy in virtue of the holiness of the will; and that while the will remains firm and unshaken, nothing that another person does with the body, or upon the body, is any fault of the person who suffers it, so long as he cannot escape it without sin.

Translation: A woman’s body is her own, and a good person is good not because of what happens to her body but because of her good soul and good will. .

But as not only pain may be inflicted, but lust gratified on the body of another, whenever anything of this latter kind takes place, shame invades even a thoroughly pure spirit from which modesty has not departed,-shame, lest that act which could not be suffered without some sensual pleasure, should be believed to have been committed also with some assent of the will.

Sometimes don’t have control over what happens to our bodies. People can hurt us or rape us. Women who have been raped often feel terrible not only because of the physical violation but because they believe that people will think they brought it on themselves. Awful people. People like NWO.

And consequently, even if some of these virgins killed themselves to avoid such disgrace, who that has any human feeling would refuse to forgive them.? And as for those who would not put an end to their lives, lest they might seem to escape the crime of another by a sin of their own, he who lays this to their charge as a great wickedness is himself not guiltless of the fault of folly.

And sometimes people who have been raped feel so terrible that they kill themselves. They’re not “guilty,” here. The problem is the people who shamed them.

But is there a fear that even another’s lust may pollute the violated? It will not pollute, if it be another’s: if it pollute, it is not another’s, but is shared also by the polluted. But since purity is a virtue of the soul, and has for its companion virtue, the fortitude which will rather endure all ills than consent to evil; and since no one, however magnanimous and pure, has always the disposal of his own body, but can control only the consent and refusal of his will, what sane man can suppose that, if his body be seized and forcibly made use of to satisfy the lust of another, he thereby loses his purity?

The interesting thing here is that Augustine is admitting that men can be raped. (At least I think so; it might be a defect of the translation. I haven’t read this in Latin.) Nobody can fully control his or her own body at all times, especially in Late Antiquity. That does not mean that one is “impure.”

Even though At. Augustine is working off a definition of “purity” that most of us don’t share right now, and he privileges female chastity in a way that should be problematized, he’s still far more sane about this than your average MRA.

If [purity]… belongs to the soul, then not even when the body is violated is it lost. Nay more, the virtue of holy continence, when it resists the uncleanness of carnal lust, sanctifies even the body, and therefore when this continence remains unsubdued, even the sanctity of the body is preserved, because the will to use it holily remains, and, so far as lies in the body itself, the power also.

For the sanctity of the body does not consist in the integrity of its members, nor in their exemption from all touch; for they are exposed to various accidents which do violence to and wound them, and the surgeons who administer relief often perform operations that sicken the spectator. …And thus, so long as the soul keeps this firmness of purpose which sanctifies even the body, the violence done by another’s lust makes no impression on this bodily sanctity, which is preserved intact by one’s own persistent continence.

Even if female chastity is the sort of thing you value, there is no such thing as the “asking for it” defense.

@Holly Pervocracy

You promote whore-culture. This is another example of you saying one thing but doing another.

And on that note my proud little whores, I. am. outta. here.

I think we hit a nerve.

Ozy,

That’s definitely one if my favorite Christmas songs. I’m deeply ambivalent about Jackson Browne but he really hits the nail on the head as far as I’m concerned.

@NWO
Here’s a thing. I’m not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet, but it doesn’t really matter if we know how life can come from non-life or how the universe formed or not. Let us say we have no idea. None. You still have to establish a reason for believing in a god. You can’t just find something we don’t understand completely, or even do understand completely that you don’t like, and say “I don’t know, therefore god.” You have to actually give some reason that you think there is a god that does things. Some good reason, in fact.

Let me give you an analogy. I have no idea of how to make tatted lace. None whatsoever. But that does not mean I go around saying, “tatted lace is proof of GOD! Look at how pretty it is. It must be proof of god. I wouldn’t want to live in a world in which god did not tat lace.” Because that would make no sense.

And yes, tatted lace is made by humans, but let us pretend I found a piece on the ground in the middle of a forest with no clue as to how it got there or if it was formed naturally. It still would not make sense for me to claim it was made by god.

I see now I am too late. Pity.

I see now I am too late. Pity.

NWO is easily startled, but he’ll be back, and with greater stupidity.

I think he’ll argue that women had teh ekwality back then. Or something.
