Porn for religious texs? JimboBillyBubbaBob Nov 2013 #1

It was just more tone deaf sexism. rug Nov 2013 #2

It was, without a doubt. JimboBillyBubbaBob Nov 2013 #3

You don't combat sexism with sexism. rug Nov 2013 #4

So you agree with their point that they are both smut? cleanhippie Nov 2013 #10

Not in the least. rug Nov 2013 #11

But you just said it was "tone deaf sexism", and that "you dont fight sexism with sexism." cleanhippie Nov 2013 #12

You're the one equating sexism to smut. rug Nov 2013 #13

No, you are. They had a "smut for smut campaign" that you said was "fighting sexism with sexism." cleanhippie Nov 2013 #14

And your analogy of the Bible to pornography is just as juvenile as theirs. rug Nov 2013 #15

Its not my analogy, its theirs. And the 'bible is sexism' is all yours. cleanhippie Nov 2013 #16

So, you do not agree with them that the Bible is equivalent to pornography? rug Nov 2013 #17

I agree with you that it is as sexist as pornography. cleanhippie Nov 2013 #18

Is that a difficult question to answer? rug Nov 2013 #19

I just answered you. I agree with you that it is as sexist as pornography. cleanhippie Nov 2013 #20

No you didn't. rug Nov 2013 #21

Yes, you most certainly did. cleanhippie Nov 2013 #22

You left out two: rug Nov 2013 #23

Again, I've answered your question twice already. This is the third time. cleanhippie Nov 2013 #24

You evaded three times. rug Nov 2013 #25

Yes, the answer is clear. I agree with you that the bible is a sexist as pornography. cleanhippie Nov 2013 #26

Agreeing with something I did not say is odd. rug Nov 2013 #27

Denying one's own words that are there for all to see is more than odd, it's disturbed. cleanhippie Nov 2013 #28

"the bible is a sexist as pornography" rug Nov 2013 #29

rug edhopper Nov 2013 #31

Sexism is more, and worse, than pornography. rug Nov 2013 #33

So you are saying that the percieved sexism of the Bible edhopper Nov 2013 #34

Why do you and cleanhippie feel the need to reformulate my words? rug Nov 2013 #35

Sorry for trying to understand what you were saying edhopper Nov 2013 #36

Just because the tactic they used was not wise, doesn't mean the Bible lacks in sexism or... Humanist_Activist Nov 2013 #44

You're right, the bible is like a whole shelf full of snuff porn. AtheistCrusader Nov 2013 #45

Read the Beatitudes after you're done perusing your shelf. rug Nov 2013 #47

Can't. AtheistCrusader Nov 2013 #48

As per the article, it really wasn't very clever at all. cbayer Nov 2013 #6

Excellent and I hope this truly represents a trend. cbayer Nov 2013 #5

OK JimboBillyBubbaBob Nov 2013 #7

oh those poor "believers" have been hostile and agressive for 2000 years. they'll get over it nt msongs Nov 2013 #8

Even more reason why secular groups should seek a different path. cbayer Nov 2013 #9

Ahem... gcomeau Nov 2013 #30

Deal. There is a spectrum and generalizations from either direction really serve no purpose. cbayer Nov 2013 #32

Sounds like they were on the receiving end of the hostile aggressive attitudes. AtheistCrusader Nov 2013 #46

I think they found their vinegar wasn't attracting very many students. goldent Nov 2013 #37

If it's flies that you want. cbayer Nov 2013 #41

Not so sure, but of course here we are dealing with human students goldent Nov 2013 #42
