Well, I'm not sure who to respond to, either Wilhelm, or Stuart.
Nevertheless............smut?, crude?, titillating imagery?,sexual
connotation?, pornography?....WHERE????
The source of any smut, sexual connotation, or pornographical images came
from **your own interpretation** of the last part of the "fable". There was
nothing in that post that was "naughty". What is offensive is you writing
into the list with your "holier that thou" attitude and insults (example:
"intellectual lightweights) when you are just as "guilty" as the rest of
us. "Remove the beam in your own eye, so that you can see more clearly to
remove the speck in your brothers eye" Also, in the words of a previous
response: Lighten Up!Ian Watson
