Does 'rape culture' accurately describe (many) societies?

But still no explanation as to why. You criticise Christianity for its inconsistencies (no problem with that) and yet, when challenged about your own, you wimp out.

It's NOT an inconsistency. It's context and nuance. Perhaps you don't understand that people can take into account additional factors.

It's not so much Christianity's inconsistencies that I criticize. It is it's evil and disgusting preachings. Slavery and human genocide is permissable, but sex is an abomination? And shellfish and mixed fabrics is wrong? The God of the Bible is the most evil character in all literature. The only thing it has going for it is there is little to zero reason to believe it exists.

Your continued pretence that porn is not made available to children, including 9 year olds, is noted.

I did not say that. You can see that I did not say that, and you continue to lie.

Further, your pretence that the real sex taking place in porn does not to some degree represent real life is also noted.

It does not. No moreso than the violence taking place in violent movies represents real life.

Poem is consistent in that he she exaggerates whatever we say into something over the top.

I am curious about our persistent interlocuter's view on kinky sex is. Especially kinky sex with a power dynamic in one direction or the other.

I probably shouldn't be, as it won't advance the conversation one bit. (Let's face it, this conversation has never actually been advanced, in any sense.)

An interesting question.

That's not human sacrifice. Neither is the removal of human cells in a biopsy or an appendectomy.

What is human sacrifice is nailing a 33 year old human being to few pieces of wood to satisfy some primitive story.

Or allowing people to die instead of providing healthcare.

Another reason I hate Christianity. Hey, some two thousand year old myth is more important than the quality of the lives of our daughters? Does anyone think that abortion and other forms of sexual healthcare would be denied to women if not for this incredibly moronic fairy tale?

Why don't you tell the thread your view on how precious or otherwise life is? Your view on the life of the unborn is that it is not precious - that is correct isn't it? Having unrestricted sex (consensual) is paramount isn't it - and be damned the potential consequence of offspring - right?

So? That's an argument from authority. And Nietzche is probably one of the last persons that I would listen to for a lesson on morality.

Indeed, Nietzsche himself would probably tell you that, if you think you should be listening to him for a lesson on morality, then you completely missed his point.

Why don't you tell the thread your basis for believing life, human or otherwise is precious, or why human life is more precious than any other life.

It's part of the golden rule isn't it? Or do you have a problem with that?
