A Telling Illustration
(1)
Well, obviously I was wrong about sex and the gods. The old gods were definitely into sex, including sex with humans. Only the Jewish god WHTZSNM seems to have abstained. That would make the Old Bastard a Virgin! Whoa! I could have fun with this... lessee... ok, maybe later.
Here is a list of gods who were born of virgins: Jesus, Perseus, Buddha, Huitzilopochtli, attis, Ghengis Khan (was he a god?), Krishna, Horus, Mercury, and Romulus (all according to giNG).
Concerning 'the test' in (2) below I was also wrong. The 'perfect score' should be 14 or 15 or so, not 10. Certainly you noticed that. If so, then you also noticed the male genitalia on the wall of the sex-ed classroom. Question: Was the depicted penis sexually mutilated (circumcised) or only skinned-back?
The correct answer is that the drawing was too ambiguous to make a definitive conclusion. Ten points if you got that one. But on the other hand it is unlikely that such an illustration would depict the unusual penile state of foreskin retraction over the normal state, leading to the speculation that the illustration was actually designed to 'cover up' the sorry, mutilated state of the National Penis. In fact, most American boys and girls would think the illustration of a normal penis quite odd. No doubt many boys would point that out to the teacher, which would quickly lead to further questions quite outside the intended curriculum. So I think we can conclude that the illustration was intended to depict not a penis skinned back but a penis mutililated in the Judeo-Muslim manner, which is to say, a normal American dick. This artistic maneuver saved everybody concerned: the mutilates (circumcates) could feel 'normal' and the normals could relate. Furthermore the teacher would not be forced into unfortunate explanations.
