It’s like juggling chainsaws this thread. Disaster waiting to happen . . .
Since it is a Mod who started a tasteless thread (not that I mind - but this does make Scylla’s erection thread look like sunday school fodder), does this mean we can do lawn chair stuff too? How about if I just have some popcorn?
Personally, I find the thing hilarious. It is in horrible taste, however. As Euty just earlier chided me for something “tasteless” regarding my bodily funcitons since my surgery, it struck me as odd that he would post something like this. Doubly so since it seemed *unlikely that he had just seen it for the first time.
Hmmm, well the opposing view would be the opposite of mine right?? Yes, it’s been done on this board over and over again. And yes, everyone is entitled to their view and I respect that. Probably not the best way to word the post, but most posters understand what I mean, having read threads about this type of stuff over and over. Emotions get involved when you start discussing religion, faith, etc. and would only be a hijack on this thread.
Fair enough. ‘Opposing view’ was probably not the best choice of words. I certainly don’t regard my views as being in opposition to yours. You’re right about the possibility of a hijack and I wasn’t trying to start an argument (I deliberately didn’t get into the substantive issue). I was just a bit miffed that you were clearly making a point, while at the same time appearing to ringfence it from any response. Maybe I was being a bit over-sensitive on that score and, if so, I apologise.
I think this is misleading. This site contains images that would certainly be considered pornographic (not just mildly inappropriate) if anyone in my office were looking over my shoulder.
That said, I hardly feel I have the right to complain. Following any links from this thread was clearly going to be “at my own risk”.
gratifying. For too long, this kind of sublime blasphemy has been targeted exclusively at Christianity. Now, at long last, Judaism is getting equal treatment.
But, they could do more-
Aaron’s Staff-This silicone beauty is guaranteed to lead you to the promised land!
Noah's Ark-Let the little man in the boat take care of the little man in the boat!
Jacob's Ladder-Glows in the dark! Climb this baby to heaven!
I am not particularly religious, I do believe in God, but I laugh and share blasphemous jokes and I also swear and blaspheme (Lord’s name in vain, whatever).
Personally though, this site went past the bounds for me. I respect its right to exist as free speech/expression/“art” - but I found it completely offensive and appalling.
Not because they were christian images and my background was christian - I would have felt the same had I see jewish or hindu or islamic images.
I also have an issue with the use of a baby/infant image in this way, not just because it’s jesus.
