Er..the gospels are the biggest pile of erroneous nonsense one can come
up with. Its all about those imaginary beings, that can do anything, be
everywhere at once, knows everything etc...

Hey! Let's not knock the imaginary!

Where would electronics be today without sqrt(-1)? ;-)

Up the paddle without a creek? ;-}

That's another interesting question - is there really a "hole" in
the donut, or are you buying a hole, with donut around it?

The hole was there first, you know. ;-p

"A nubile female virtually never experiences difficulty in finding
willing sexual partners, and in a natural habitat nubile females are
probably always married. The basic female "strategy" is to obtain the
best possible husband, to be fertilized by the fittest available male
(always, of course, taking risk into account), and to maximize the
returns on sexual favors bestowed: to be sexually aroused by the sight of
males would promote random matings, thus undermining all of these aims,
and would also waste time and energy that could be spent in economically
significant activities and in nurturing children. A female's reproductive
success would be seriously compromised by the propensity to be sexually
aroused by the sight of males."

explain the lack of female interest in pornography.
