Oy vey. See how the saccharine sentimental Christianity today has devalued and dishonored God? You won't be doing much hugging of the Almighty, if for no other reason than you'll be too busy humbling yourself before Him. God is God, He's not your mother or your equal.

Then Morgoth turned upon Húrin, and he said: 'Fool, little among Men, and they are the least of all that speak! Have you seen the Valar, or measured the power of Manwë and Varda?
Do you know the reach of their thought? Or do you think, perhaps, that their thought is upon you, and that they may shield you from afar?'
'I know not,' said Húrin. 'Yet so it might be, if they willed. For the Elder King shall not be dethroned while Arda endures.'

That's not quite the point. The thing is that things between consenting adults shouldn't be illegal; it's not a matter of personal preference. I disapprove of a fair number of things that I would make legal. Originally posted by Soyeong

I think you're missing his point. He was just saying it was immoral. At any rate, I agree that it is no business of the state in certain situations. Doesn't make it right though. Originally posted by Chrs181818
Crab Battle
noun
Words uttered to incite an all in brawl. Whoever says the words 'Crab Battle' will usually be spear tackled to the ground by anyone else present, and all parties will then engage in a fight to the death.
Reality untouchable, transparent, invisible to our fixed, restricted fields of vision. Existence taken for granted, absolute. Possessed, owned, controlled by the common sense-infected rational gaze, onward forever we walk among the ignorant. Never stray from the common lines.

Due to rampant stupidity by Skeptics, and time issues, I'm only going to be on TWeb in my own (tektonics.org) section from now on. Deal with it.

So, as long as all participants are adult and are consenting, you are okay (in the sense that you see no reason why it should be illegal) with sexual intercourse between siblings/parent and child? What about the cannibal of Rothenburg? Originally posted by Chrs181818

I should have said that was a joke, though she did that indeed. Maybe she could help find a suitable strawman graphic? Originally posted by Teluog
