On Sluttiness and Prostitution
Posted by unclesmrgol at 10 March, 2012 14:43:16
The word "slut" is subjective -- it implies that the person against whom it was uttered has, in the eyes of the speaker, more sexual partners than is morally acceptable.
We have from the public record that Ms. Sandra Fluke is unmarried.
Further, we have from her own testimony that she is quite concerned about the cost of her birth control.
Given that she is concerned about the cost of her birth control, a reasonable conclusion is that she is having recreational sex with at least one male. The sex must be recreational because the purpose of birth control is to prevent a natural side effect of heterosexual relations -- pregnancy.
Hence, we may reasonably and factually conclude that Ms. Fluke is an unmarried woman having recreational sex.
In the moral universe of us Catholics, having unmarried sex with anyone is a sin. The Church is quite emphatic in this teaching -- that sex should only occur in the context of marriage, and every sexual act should be open to "fecudity" -- the possibility of pregnancy.
Hence we have that Ms. Fluke is, ipso facto, a slut -- she is engaging in sex with more sexual partners than is morally acceptable.
And what makes this even worse is that Ms. Fluke wants the Church, against the dictates of its group conscience, to pay for her sex accessories. When Ms. Fluke demands payment from others for her private sexual escapades, she becomes a prostitute.
Rush has it right. That he has apologized to her does not diminish that fact.

Freedom of Religion

Freedom of religion include the freedom from religion -- the 1st Amendment couldn't put it better: "Congress shall make no law regarding an establishment of religion, or preventing the free exercise thereof."
That says that you cannot force your freedom from religion onto a religious person -- that each of you cannot bring the power of Government to bear upon the other.
In the moment that you force another person to act against the dictates of their consciences, you have forced your religion upon them.
And, in the moment that you use the Government to perform this deed, you have violated the 1st Amendment.
Now, I don't know what your religion is named, Mr. Obama, but it has been established by the Government, and needs to become disestablished ASAP.
