``And here I thought you were just an angry atheist asshole with delusions of grandeur`` Try to follow along! I am the atheist. You are the angry asshole! Eventually you will get the picture! As for your delusions: To a supernatural Drama Queen like you--everything is a delusion! ``YOU that thought it would be cute to play the QUEER CARD. I'm just following suit.`` I didn`t know that card was a suit--the QUEEN of Queers?! What sort of a deck are you playing from?! YIKES! ``It's really not too hard to follow Solon. Solon was a Pedophile`` Nope. He was the Law Maker and overseer of morals--universally revered and admired for the last 3000 years! He would be so amused to know that he gets free space in the shrunken brain of an insignificant little Kneeler! You are confusing pedophilia with pederasty. You need to read a bit! The Greek culture valued pederasty as a cultural ideal. Whether or not sex (or what kind of sex was tolerated or condemned) varied from city to city. In Sparta, pederastic love was considered an ideal while carnality was taboo. History does not tell us if Solon followed the culture in the carnal way or merely the erotic way, but in either event it was pederasty--not pedophilia--and it was perfectly legal and moral! Every culture sets the age limits for when pederasty is legal and moral! ``Historically, pederasty has existed as a variety of customs and practices within different cultures. The status of pederasty has changed over the course of history, at times considered an ideal and at other times a crime. In the history of Europe, its most structured cultural manifestation was Athenian pederasty, and became most prominent in the 6th century BC. Greek pederasty's various forms were the subject of philosophic debates in which the carnal type was unfavorably compared with erotic yet spiritual and moderate forms. The legal status of pederasty in most countries is currently determined by whether or not the boy has reached the local age of consent. Illegal forms of pederasty for the purposes of law enforcement fall under child sexual abuse.``
