When You Think You Have Heard It All You Hear ----

the fundinutzies of the religious right admonishing women to be modest in their appearance. That we need to control thoughts of lust and desire. What frigging planet are these assholes on? Maybe women should dress like the nuns of old or wear a burka. If these folks get true power we are going to have to have a revolution. And now I know why the Romans fed Christians to the lions. And the lions refused to eat them they were so bad.

The modern version of fundie Christians have little to no relationship to ancient people who called themselves Christians. Even the Jesus of the Synoptic version of the Bible was a socialist and would be denounced today as a radical by fundie Catholics and Protestants.

has told me that little factoid. It's amazing because they seem slothful and cute, but they are so deadly.

There was even a class of gladiator who trained to kill lions by hand with a mailed fist. Lions seldom won. Romans were responsible for extinction of the European Lion.
