Thou shalt not annoy the hell out of thy neighbor

Sometimes when I type in the address to my blog wrong (when I input “blogpsot” instead of “blogspot”), I am taken to “Aaron’s Bible,” a mega-site of fundamentalist Christian material. It’s invasive and rude, and very unwelcome. Does this happen to anyone else? How low of them…the site even has pop-ups telling me to change my homepage to theirs!

Well, their underhanded tactics have worked to some degree…I was reading through the site today. You know what really irks me? When people lament that the world is descending into a moral abyss, and that our sexual morals are getting worse and worse as time goes by.

News flash, you tunnel-vision nincompoops: humans have been a depraved, sexually deviant, promiscuous lot from the beginning. Just read Petronius’s The Satyricon (written during Roman times...the time of Christ) or any of the works of the Marquis de Sade (17th & 18th century pervert). Socrates was gay. The Bible itself is full of stories of lust and adultery.

IMHO, one cannot blame the bad things that happen in life on something as ambiguous as “declining morality.” I think, rather, we as a society have an increasing sense of prudishness.

Aaron’s Bible says that declining sexual morals proves that a Biblical prophecy has been fulfilled—more proof that the world will indeed end very soon and we should all mark Aaron’s Bible as our homepage.

I should learn how to type more accurately.
