Just looking for some opinions. At what point and for what reason does Erotica become Pornography?
resserts comments on Mar 13, 2019:
I don't see the two as mutually exclusive. I think a lot of people hear "pornography" and assume it's hardcore, and they hear "erotica" and assume it's romance with a hint of sexuality. From the American Oxford Dictionary: **erotica** literature or art intended to arouse sexual desire. ...

LenHazell53 replies on Mar 13, 2019:
@48thRonin So the right to *not be* shot is not of equal merit with the right to bear arms? Rights are only rights when they are expedient to your argument? Did I say all such crime was directly attributable to junkies? No I said in the case of people being mugged/burgled or robbed BY junkies. Way to avoid answering the question by presuming to know my ideologies and attempting to demonise me (poorly), which you didn't by the way. I ask agains can a right be curtailed if that right either directly or indirectly impinges on the rights of another person? Do you have an answer?

Mermaidfantasy comments on Mar 13, 2019:
I guess I look it very simple, porn is graphic pictures or video of a sexual nature and I do not care how graphic one's written word is, it is not porn, your mind makes the image. Now it may be smut but that is a different question.
LenHazell53 replies on Mar 13, 2019:
"I do not care how graphic one's written word is, it is not porn" Since pornography literally means the depiction of the obscene in any form The courts who banned Lady Chatterley's lover would disagree with you, even if I don't. Thanks for your considered answer
Open discussion. Zoroastrianism and the influence on Abrahamic religions.
LenHazell53 comments on Mar 13, 2019:

LenHazell53 replies on Mar 13, 2019:
@Antifred the only web sites that back that sort of dating up are creationist and completely neglect the fact that the measurement of the ancient Babylonian year, the Israelite year and the Julian calendar were all shorter than the modern Gregorian year, hence Abraham being claimed to be 175 years old at his death. All three of the artifacts including the Elam tablets make no mention of Abraham, but date him by relating him to lists of kings, none of which can be directly linked to Abraham but are based on counting back from Moses who it is claimed lived 1440 years after Abraham. Problem being of course Moses never existed, there is no independent record of him or the exodus in the huge library of Egyptian history uncovered in the last two centuries with the aid of Champolians research and the Rosetta stone and his biblical legend is a retelling of the Birth of Horus who did not exist either. Zarathustra was not the first prophet of Zoroastrianism, he is just the greatest, claiming the religion can be dated from him is like dating Judaism from the Birth of Rabbi Judah Loew ben Bezalel .

LenHazell53 replies on Mar 13, 2019:
@itsmedammit there is no such word as Ye, it was originally þe, pronounced Thee, but there was no movable type for þ so it was substituted with Y and over time the original pronunciation was forgotten in favour of the written one as þ passed out of the language. Same thing happened with the long s ( ſ ) (pronounced as a hiss as opposed to the short s pronounced as suh) being mistaken for a lower case f and vice versa.

The Magdalene was not a hooker that was a rumour started by the early popes to discredit her and there is far more historical evidence for her (as a disciple of John the baptist, who definitely did exist) than for the carpenter of Nazareth. If you have read the Gnostic Gospels you should know this.

(Which is by the way demonstrably bogus) Now I said that in 22 comprehensible words, where as your *abridged* quotation takes 302 words more than 50% of which are superfluous, to hint at the beginnings of a similar idea. As I said "Word Salad" masquerading as pseudo intellectualism.

Libby Lawrence, radio war correspondent, olympic athlete and the possessor of a shard of the actual liberty belle passed down to her from her ancestor the civil war heroine Miss Liberty. At times of great danger the shard makes the liberty Bell in Philadelphia vibrate encouraging it's custodian to strike it once, in order to send a powerful surge of adrenaline to the possessor of the shard giving her a boost of super strength and agility until the bell stops ringing. She featured in Star Spangled comics along with several other patriot themed heroes to encourage the forces. Her fellows included The Star Spangled Kid, Spy Smasher, Union Jack and of course the original version of Captain America.

China is the only country to impose an outright ban on all forms of fluoridation of drinking water to the best of my knowledge. It can only be concluded that some one somewhere is making a shit load of money out of this.

A lovely couple, Sam Elliott & Katharine Ross (Married since 1984)
LenHazell53 comments on Feb 26, 2019:
They met on the set of The Legacy 1978 (definitely worth a watch by the way) and married 6 years later. Sam Elliot has one of the coolest voices on celluloid, that epitomizes the old west.
LenHazell53 replies on Feb 28, 2019:
@kmdskit3 It is possible they did, but they have both affirmed that their relationship began when they played husband and wife in "The Legacy"
VERISIMILITUDE.

LenHazell53 replies on Feb 28, 2019:
@WonderWartHog99 again similar but subtly different, " sounds right" or "Sounds about right" is more a simile for approximately or an approximation or a guess. Verisimilitude is not an approximation or a guess, it is and informed speculation based on a degree of truth.

VERISIMILITUDE.
WonderWartHog99 comments on Feb 28, 2019:
Largely replaced with the easier to spell factoid, meaning an unverified fact.
LenHazell53 replies on Feb 28, 2019:
Not really, a factoid is a version of "the big lie" theory that if something is reported as true often enough people will come to believe it. Verisimilitude is more along the line of the suspension of disbelief, such as accepting that the setting of a story is true even if the events and characters are not or placing a real person in a fictitious situation. The maxim "all legend has a basis in truth, for example Troy can be historically stated to have existed, but we have no idea were it was" is an example of verisimilitude where as saying "Moses was a real person everyone knows that to be true even though there is no historical evidence for his existence or of his deeds" is a factoid.

WilliamFleming comments on Feb 27, 2019:
Which religions are the ones that tolerate and defend rape? I missed it.
LenHazell53 replies on Feb 27, 2019:
@WilliamFleming perhaps not condones but many victim blame, Wahhabism and Mormonism spring to mind. There was a huge scandal a year or so ago when a girl was "caught" by BYU campus police out after hours and dressed "immodestly" after being raped. She was expelled for breaking the honour code and her testimony against her attackers discredited because... (drum roll please) she broke the honour code and so was considered "unreliable".

He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.

Both men and women masturbate... What's your point?
LenHazell53 replies on Feb 27, 2019:
@SadekAmine True by a penile penetrative definition of rape, but not all rapes by men are against women at least as many are against other men, they just don't get reported nearly so often because of the stigma many men feel when violated. However if you count none penile sexual assault as rape, then women can and do rape both men and women in the moral if not legal sense of the word.

LenHazell53 replies on Feb 27, 2019:
@johnprytz You raise an interesting point and one that has not gone unnoticed in the past. Christopher Marlowe the Elizabethan poet and play write, drew attention (at a great cost) to himself by pointing out that twice in the bible Lazarus whose sisters were Martha and the Magdalene is referred to as he who Jesus loved, the same title the author of the the Gospel of John uses for himself within the text. Some take this to mean the apostle John was Lazarus and that either A) he was never raised from the dead it was a con trick, or B) There never was a Lazarus and it was Mary dressed up in what was a dress rehearsal for Jesus own "resurrection" to see if people would fall for it. or C) as Marlow suggested and so got himself sent before the Starr Chamber, Jesus and John / Lazarus were lovers and it is a metaphoric story about their Sexual rebirth as lovers. In the Gnostic gospel of Mary Lazarus is mentioned as a bit of a weirdo who used to dress only in a white sheet, and often slept at the foot of Jesus' bed so garbed. One then has to ask was the young man dressed only in a linen sheet in Mark 14:51-53 who flees the scene of Jesus arrest by casting off his sheet and running away naked was Lazarus/John, again spending the night in Gethsemane at his "master" 's feet.
