Some People Shouldn't Breed, Part MCMXXIVIII
 

So true. Kids, when you mess with Wal-Mart's finest, you take your chances.

Some People Shouldn't Breed, but apparently already have, twice.
 

I didn't say anything about the Washington Post or the NYT w/r/t the Kobe thing, nor did anyone else. You brought them up, in a total nonsequitor (does my use of this word mean Paigow won't fuck me?), in an apparent attempt to defend Fox. Get over it.

If they're yesterday's underpants, then the distinction is irrelevant to the defense theory, no? (The theory being she's a slut; the "compelling evidence of innocence" being that she's got someone else's jiz in her panties from around the time of the rape/consensual sex, which proves the theory, in theory.)

But since it's a woman bringing it up, it's not misogynistic.

Besides, she's ugly. Who cares what she says?

Oops. Double post. But strangely, the first one showed up second.

Exactly! Having had sex with one person ever (unless you were legally married to that person at the time) implies consent to sex with anyone at any time. That's really how rape cases are set up to be tried. Also, please refer to my "she's not dead, so she must have wanted it" post.

why is that necessarily a bad thing? isnt Mike Judge somehow related to King of the Hill? He did Office Space. I think they should hire you to play Brent. Your know it all attitude and refusal to handle a simple request by someone you consider to be your mental inferior without refuting it on the merits first screams selfish, self centered, know it all boss to me. YOu would be great on the episode with the 80s training tape.

And thurgreed could be the token black guy.

and on an unrelated note, I am startintg to think Tim is really sexy, even with his ridiculous bowl haircut. i bet he is an animal in the sacque.

Is she fat, too? Doesn't she know that if you eat more calories then you expend you will get fat? Where those calories come from is irrelevant.

(I can't believe e/o's post didn't get more play yesterday.)

Response to Atticus on the Early Church
 

True, but when the Bar-Kokhba Revolt was put down, there was no Jewish hierarchy anymore. Not only was the Temple destroyed (again!), but Jerusalem itself was off-limits. Judaism was forced underground in the Roman Empire. That doesn't mean the Jesus Movement shot to prominence; it means its contemporary competitors suffered a huge setback that leveled the playing field.

Co-equal doesn't mean it was respected; the Sadducees and Pharisees didn't get along either. This was serious stuff at stake. When I said "co-equal," I guess I meant that the Jesus Movement attained a status of its own when the rest of the Jewish community was scattered to the diaspora.

Raymond Brown theorized that the Gospel of John was written by a community of disciples dedicated to the Apostle John who were expelled from their synagogue for their beliefs in approximately 100 C.E. Consistent with their pain at losing their Jewish identity, they use a word found nowhere else in the Christian writings (aposynagogos) three times in the Gospel (9:22, 12:42, 16:2). Their Gospel (if Brown is to be believed) is also among the most virulently anti-Semitic. They were getting their own licks in, the best way they could.

I think you're taking "political parties" in too modern a sense. I'm talking about the religious philosophies that were competing for the heart of Judaism. I don't say this to minimize the Jesus Movement, nor to insult the bona fides of the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes and others. They were all looking for salvation, but they were in competition with each other for adherents and influence. Thus, "parties."

I'm not going out too far on a historical limb to say that Jesus probably sought the total reform of the Israelite religion, not its destruction. That's why the word "Messiah" is used; it couldn't have been coincidental that it resonated with uniquely Jewish expectations.

Regardless of whether that's true, the theory is that her particularly recent slutiness, not general slutiness, was the alternative source of the injuries ostensibly proving she was raped. In theory it makes (or could make) sense; who knows what the facts are.

Was Mike Tyson in Colorado the day before?

Exactly my point. Whenever Fox reports anything its written off by the left as biased, but these same people who make such criticisms (for example, you) do not, with any regularity, point the finger of bias at the biased left winged media. I criticize that and addtionally, I hope Paigow doesn't fuck you. You don't deserve her tender loins.

I'm no litigator, and I'm certainly no criminal defense or prosecution litigator, but I really had thought there was something about admissibility and prior acts. For some reason I also thought that there was something . . . I don't know what . . . about prior sexual acts being brought up in rape cases. I guess if they found her blood and someone else's blood in her underwear and could link that to rough sex that would be one thing, but proving that she had sex with someone else in the recent past doesn't really seem to show anything about injuries. You'd need a lot more than just semen in her panties.

And didn't Kobe read that recent study about how being next to a fat person decreases your own standing in the eyes of others? If she is fat, he needs to get a new lawyer right quick.
