“everybody must be able to get laid whenever and however they want”

But why do we want to account for complex postmodern realities? That is called missing the point, for there are no longer any points to miss. Right? Actually, underneath all the pomo jargonizing, there are a couple of non-negotiable points that they insist on us not missing, while pretending they are insisting on nothing whatever. One is that everybody must be able to get laid whenever and however they want, and the other is that they must be allowed to rail against power games while playing the ultimate power game themselves. The first item is the bait, and the second is the trap. The people doing this are really evil or really stupid.

“Violent rape is a judgment of God upon a people”

Violent rape is a judgment of God upon a people. . . Violent rape is God’s judgment upon a culture, and individual women who are part of that culture are included in the judgment. . . . We see the same judgment at work in disintegrating cultures: ‘Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil’ (Eccl. 8:11). Here the rape is not being perpetrated by foreign soldiers, but is the result of citizens turning on one another. Every culture is a gathering of sinners, and so rape is always a possibility. But when God’s hand of judgment is heavy upon a people, women are in far greater danger of sexual assault than at other times. It is interesting to note that in these, our ‘enlightened’ times, a woman is far more likely to be abused in this way than before all the liberation happened. Douglas Wilson

Psalm 36

Transgression speaks to the ungodly within his heart;
     There is no fear of God before his eyes.

For it flatters him in his own eyes
     Concerning the discovery of his iniquity and the hatred of it.

The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit;
     He has ceased to be wise and to do good.

He plans wickedness upon his bed;
     He sets himself on a path that is not good;

He does not despise evil.
     Your lovingkindness, O LORD, extends to the heavens,

“they could not see past their cocks”

I recall one time in the Navy telling some sailors that they could not see past their cocks — my point was an ethical one, but not really a delicate one. The Bible describes such men as unreasoning brutes. They do not understand much, and what they do understand, they use to destroy themselves: ‘But these speak evil of those things which they know not; but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves’ (Jude 10). ‘Dogs can hump. What else can you do?’ Scientific or medical language is not suited for prophetic rebuke.
