    Do "pure and holy" people consider 99% of the rest of the world "human

    What 99% would that be? Just because you are dissolute does not mean that

    You've stated this before...it amounts to a statement of self-loathing and
    fear. I strongly recommend repeating it to a qualified mental health
    provider...perhaps it's not too late for you to get some help.

    Do you have any evidence that the overall rate of sexual expression, or
    the
    forms thereof, or the purposes for which people engage in it, has changed
    significantly from what it was in the past? Or, do you simply have a
    fantasy of a "purer" time in the distant past when your fears would not
    have
    made you look so bizarre?

    It is how it is regarded that matters, not whether it is engaged in or not.
    You are a libertine because you do not regard it as immoral. You are worse
    than the worst sinner because the worst sinner knows that he sins.

    Earth to ED - Believe it or not, it's possible to lead a life rich with
    intellectual and physical challenges, creativity and joy, and also to
    experience love, intimacy, and (gasp!) sex (both for pleasure, and for
    procreative purposes).

    No, pleasure is forbidden. What the hell do you think the Garden of Eden

    I've never said that sex is "all about fun and games"...it's way more
    significant than that. It's also about closeness, bonding, intimacy, love,
    making babies (at some points in life), and yes...fun and games too.

    So, if it wasn't real, then why should we continue to be ruled by Bronze Age
    mythology? If there was no "Garden of Eden", and no "original sin", why do
    we have to deny ourselves pleasure in this life (assuming consenting
    adults)?

    Again, the answer is clear...your disgust with intimacy and sexuality is
    nothing more than your own deep-seated fears (and possibly some form of
    mental illness).

    BTW - this has been fun, but I have to sign off for the next couple of
    weeks. I'm off to Colorado for a business trip, and a week of cycling in
    the Rockies. Have a good time while I'm gone...and try to get laid if you
    can (it might improve your outlook on life...you won't know until you try
    it).

    Thinking about getting into bicycling again and have been reading all
    types of articles all over the net, some older ones that bring up the
    problem with bike seats for males. Wondered if someone can direct me
    to the lastest on the bicycle seat causing impotence and other damage
    or if you have any opinions. Thank you.


    Bicycle saddles cause problems for people, but not most. Usually it's
    not "damage" so much as irritation.

    I avoid the problem entirely by riding a recumbent, because I now
    believe ALL upright bikes to be uncomfortable. Recumbent riders have a
    number of common problems as well but saddle-induced impotence isn't one
    of them. But let's assume you don't want a recumbent.

    You should look up the crank-forward bikes from RANS
    [www.ransbikes.com]. They eliminate seat pain and still look "fairly"
    normal, they even fit into many regular bicycle carriers. A lot of
    people who otherwise only ride recumbents have tried them and just rave
    about them. I don't own one yet, but one of these is probably the only
    upright road bicycle I'd consider buying.

    ED, please don't project your fears of intimacy and sexuality upon
    the rest
    of the male gender. You're a well-documented misanthrope and
    misogynist, with well-documented fears of intimacy (of any kind).

    For most normal men, physical and social intimacy with women is part
    of the
    definition of a life well lived. Of course, you're free to live
    your lonely
    life as you see fit. But insulting all women just because you fear
    them, and insulting most men who would prefer their company, just
    makes you look
    like even more of a weirdo and misfit.

    BTW - When was the last time you had sex (solo masturbation
    excluded)? I'm
    guessing it's been a very long time. Perhaps you've simply
    forgotten, or never learned, what a pleasant experience it can be.

    Gary, et. al. - A lack of knowledge, experience or expertise has
    never curtailed Ed's enthusiasm to impose his unfounded, errant
    "wisdom" ... "wisdom" derived solely from myopic, twisted
    misconceptions. A closet-queen, paralyzed by sexual hang-ups and
    shackled by self-imposed celibacy; Ed has no credibility in this
    particular area of discussion.

    Anyone who is into sexual behavior without the express intent of
    creating new life (babies) is nothing but human scum. God abhors all
    such and the Devil is waiting for you in Hell!

    Ahhhhhh Blow Me

    Follow in the footsteps of Saint Edward the Great and you will know
    what it is to be a self respecting human being. Any other path and all
    you will know are matters of the groin along with the lower animals of
    creation. However, the lower animals have the excuse that they do not
    have any higher powers of reasoning, something that we humans can
    never excuse ourselves from. Hence, we are many times worse than the
    beasts of the field. Yea, we are truly evil and deserving of
    everlasting Hellfire!

    It is my intention to come back after death as a Mighty Sequoia Tree.
    Yea, and then I shall lord it over all these pitiful humans who fancy
    themselves the lords of creation with all their pathetic sexual
    hang-ups. Ed Dolan, the Mighty Sequoia Tree - now there is thought to
    wrap your mind around!

    around this concept. I see it (sin) in others everywhere I look and

    a Great Saint. I want above all else to be Holy. To be smart is
    nothing; to be clever is nothing; but to be good is EVERYTHING!

    I very much like all women because they are essentially good. I very
    much hate all men because they are essentially evil. We men are
    nothing but murderers and rapists. Murder and rape, yea, that is what
    men are all about.

    Women should be put on pedestals and kept there by us men whether THEY

    spend all eternity in Hell for his desecration of God's creation.

    Jim will always resort to sexual innuendo when he is at a loss for
    thought.
    It is ever the way of the scoundrel because it is so easy to do - and
    will
    elicit the usual sniggers from the peanut gallery. It amazes me that
    someone
    with a college education (and a Catholic one at that!) continually
    resorts
    to the lowest common denominator.

    Jim should try to elevate his thinking into the stratosphere where Ed
    Dolan
    the Great resides. My head has been in the clouds all of my life. Matters
    of
    the groin I leave to my inferiors like Jim who is apparently some kind of
    expert on such things.

    Ed, you dudnderhead ... what sexual innuendo???.

    Jim, I urge you do drop the sexual innuendoes. It is beneath you and is
    something that only the brain dead resort to. You have a Catholic liberal
    arts education and we all expect better things of you. I myself only do it

    even did it with your arch enemy Ed Gin and so there is no reason for you to
    do it with Mike Vandeman and myself since we are far superior types to Ed
    Gin.

    Perry Butler of Alexandria, Minnesota, another otherwise pretty good fellow
    here on ARBR, would resort to this kind of an attack too when he was at a

    better to just say nothing.

    Gary, thanks for clarifying that. By the way, the only prostitute Ed
    would patronize is of his own gender. OK Ed, now I've made a sexual
    innuendo (my first I think). I didn't want to see you make yourself

    When you reference sex it is all about innuendo and nothing else. I only
    reference holiness and take to task those who are into sex for any other
    reason than creating new life. This has been the stance of the Holy Roman
    Catholic Church (the one true church) from time immemorial and I am in damn
    good company, if I do say so myself.

    In my youth I actually plowed my way through the works of St. Thomas
    Aquinas, one of the great Church Fathers. Yes it seems quaint to have done
    that now, but I lived in another era from the present one. I am now an
    atheist, but I love the teachings of the old Church Fathers.

    God, I was so born out of my time! I want nothing else than to be a monk of

    Ah, yes...those simpler times when 90% of the population was illiterate,

    Nope, you are perverted if you believe sex is all about fun and games.

    I've never said that sex is "all about fun and games"...it's way more
    significant than that. It's also about closeness, bonding, intimacy, love,

    There was no Garden of Eden, ED. Just as there was no "original sin".
    And
    pleasure is only "forbidden" by virtue of your screwed up mental state.

    Try to learn to think in symbols. It matters not whether there was a


    Garden

    Quoted message said:

    of Eden or not. It does matter that we can know what it represents.

    So, if it wasn't real, then why should we continue to be ruled by Bronze Age
    mythology? If there was no "Garden of Eden", and no "original sin", why do
    we have to deny ourselves pleasure in this life (assuming consenting
    adults)?

    Again, the answer is clear...your disgust with intimacy and sexuality is
    nothing more than your own deep-seated fears (and possibly some form of
    mental illness).

    BTW - this has been fun, but I have to sign off for the next couple of
    weeks. I'm off to Colorado for a business trip, and a week of cycling in
    the Rockies. Have a good time while I'm gone...and try to get laid if you
    can (it might improve your outlook on life...you won't know until you try
    it).

    Gary, Ed will miss your voice of reason. He will miss arguing with you
    in the absendce of his beloved Tom Sherman, but truth be told your
    rationality is wasted on the irrational Mr. Dolan. - Jim McNamara.

    ED, please don't project your fears of intimacy and sexuality upon the
    rest
    of the male gender. You're a well-documented misanthrope and misogynist,
    with well-documented fears of intimacy (of any kind).

    For most normal men, physical and social intimacy with women is part of
    the
    definition of a life well lived. Of course, you're free to live your
    lonely
    life as you see fit. But insulting all women just because you fear them,
    and insulting most men who would prefer their company, just makes you
    look
    like even more of a weirdo and misfit.

    BTW - When was the last time you had sex (solo masturbation excluded)?
    I'm
    guessing it's been a very long time. Perhaps you've simply forgotten, or
    never learned, what a pleasant experience it can be.

    Gary, et. al. - A lack of knowledge, experience or expertise has never
    curtailed Ed's enthusiasm to impose his unfounded, errant "wisdom" ...
    "wisdom" derived solely from myopic, twisted misconceptions. A
    closet-queen, paralyzed by sexual hang-ups and shackled by self-imposed
    celibacy; Ed has no credibility in this particular area of discussion.

    Anyone who is into sexual behavior without the express intent of creating
    new life (babies) is nothing but human scum. God abhors all such and the
    Devil is waiting for you in Hell!

    What we have here is the ravings of a lunatic. Why would a
    self-proclaimed atheist be talking about God and the Devil??? The
    conundrum continues.

    Curtiss and I have had long discussions on various newsgroups and we
    understand one another thoroughly. He knows all about my policy of
    [censored] for tat. You have yet to learn it, but hang in there as I am a
    good teacher.


    What WE understand is you apparently lacked attention as a child. Try
    not to link me to your attempt to validate yourself. Your references
    to me in this matter could damage my reputation as an off-road
    cyclist who enjoys sex with women.

    But you know about my policy of [censored] for tat. Other than that I agree
    with you 100% - we have absolutely nothing in common! You are a
    jackass and a scoundrel (a despoiler of wilderness and a despoiler of
    women) and I am a Great Saint. But everyone already knows that about
    us, so why should I have to keep harping on it.


    Because it makes you feel good to stroke your HUGE ego. Im sure that you
    have to stoke every thing else by your self. No self respecting woman
    would do it for you.
