Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
In other news, I have distressed my wife by ragging on the Catholic Church so hard on Ash Wednesday.
Nice timing, David. Apologies to all my ash-besmirched friends.

I agree with Lyra Jane that the Catholic church does not stand alone in this. Almost every religious organization that has been powerful and has endured over time has much to be ashamed of. It's just that the Catholic church is the big dog by virtue of its long history and the extent of its influence.

What I should have said is that their anti-birth control beliefs are based on their view that sex should always lead to the possibility of life. Not my view, but it's hardly immoral.
A hardline anti-condom stance in the age of AIDS, particularly in the parts of the world where the disease is rampant and so much of the transmission is in the boy-girl format the church approves of, isn't that far from only approving sex that always leads to the possibility of death.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
It saddens me that people single the Catholic Church out for criticism so much over other Christian denominations
In this country, nsm. The politically active religious right is comprised of various flavors of Protestantism.
Worldwide and historically, well, nobody's ever had more money or more power than the Catholic Church. It's nobody's fault but their own if they don't have a history of using either one terribly well.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
My niece:
CUUUTE!
And with that, I'm gonna have a bit of a lie down.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
Thanks, -t. Much healing ~ma, Betsy. I hope it gets better soon. At least you know now so you can start treatment.

Our wings are not tired
My ire is not just directed at the Catholic Church. Don't worry.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Nonono, Hec, it's not you, dear heart. It's the whole discussion, and me being in a bad bad headspace right now.
Sorry to be all wet-blankety, everyone. I will defend Paul some other day, but right now I'm just feeling kicked in the teeth by life in general. For no very good reason, just a lot of selfish wallowing in pity for other peoples' unhappiness, so I don't need any punctuation. I just feel all surly and prickly and full of wrong wordiness, so I'm'a go soak my head and resurface later.
I will be vibing ecumeical vibes in the direction of Betsy's rotator cuff, though.
