THE VOICE OF REASON
Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
If you wake up after casual sex feeling violated, it's not because you were raped. That's your conscience admonishing you for allowing yourself to be used by some stranger who doesn't love you. You consented to, and participated in, your own degradation.
Casual sex doesn't violate consent, but it does violate human dignity. That's why you feel gross the next day. Not because you were raped, but because you allowed yourself to be degraded for the sake of cheap and fleeting pleasure.
Notice all of the people who immediately assume that this tweet is targeted only at women. They really don't understand that men are conscious beings who can also feel regret. It is truly astounding how little the Left comprehends the human condition.
I think consent is pretty simple. If you willingly choose to participate in something, you consent. Feeling pressure or temptation does not negate consent. If it does, then nobody has ever fully consented to any sinful act. https://t.co/DUMY1Jtf2R
Question the wisdom of casual sex and watch how almost every response from the other side consists of them snickering and calling you a virgin. They are so desperate to avoid any notion of sexual morality that discussion of the subject reduces them to corny, adolescent taunting.
Elizabeth Smart is not a gray area. She was kidnapped and repeatedly raped. Clearly not consent. Consent is not nearly as complicated a subject as we pretend. It isn't calculus. If you're forced to do it, you didn't consent. If you volunteer, there is consent. https://t.co/YGgA1XXLbe
Declare the Culture War now, Trump and Bannon, or all will be lost.
Gabriele Kuby:
You get tool kits on how to change the culture. The US Foreign Office gives tool kits to every embassy and money ... how to change the culture in which they are, ja? So it is a plan of social engineering, all the money of this world is behind it. The referendum in Ireland for same sex marriage, one US citizen gave them US$25 million dollars to do it. All the money is on the other side and you know the knowledge is there of social engineering, how to start civil movements. It can all be staged, it can all be manipulated and manufactured. And since you have all the powers of this world behind it for this agenda .... What do you do if you uproot people, with no national identity, no religious identity, no family identity, they don't even know if they are a man or a woman, you can do anything with them, and I think there is actually a World Government approach to aim at that and the leak of the email account of George Soros who is one of the billionaires of this earth proves he is after all of that. It is not a theory, it is reality, there's the proof. But we are Christians and the powers of evil are there, but I firmly believe that Reason and Nature are stronger.
English anthropologist J D Unwin Sex and Culture OUP 1934
"The limitation of sexual opportunity must be regarded as the cause of cultural advance. Any human society is free to choose either to display great energy or to enjoy sexual freedom. The evidence is that it cannot do both for more than one generation." Christian moral norms are a restriction of sexual opportunity - a very severe restriction. Sex only within marriage. Unwin concludes "When a culture lets go of the restriction of sexual opportunity, it steps down from the stage of history, simply because it has not enough energy to keep it up."
