<<Anton leVey summed it up perfectly: At the altar of satan, up is down, right is wrong, good is bad, and pain is pleasure. If you look at those four concepts, it takes in all of human thought. In other words, those with his mind cannot receive anything else. No matter what they hear, they will only hear something else. And this is a pagan thread. Pagans actually enjoy conversations that would gag a maggot in our realm. I would take this to private, but I feel it is important that those who do not understand our peculiar ways get a chance to observe our speech patterns with each other.>> Hi, Jane!! I think you're really neat!! Love that simile or whatever about "gagging a maggot"!! You really have a way with words. But I really like to know, what's "your realm"? I have this aftershave called "Realm" that's made of pheromones, but I bet you don't mean that, hahaha! If you think Anton LeVey is "Perfect", I'd like to know more about him! Who is he? Do you REALLY believe that Pleasure is Pain? Or that Pain is Pleasure? I have to say I love this thread. I'm learning so much about so many different things. And I thought SI was only for Investors!

Jane of course many of us are quite familiar with the way of the sanctimonious having grown up with and promptly tossed it aside. Appeals to satan will certainly not help your cause which as as far as I can tell includes some very dangerous stereotyping and poisonous prejudice. I do not care who you think you are or how saintly you may think yourself some of your statements and guessing games and unjustifiable. But in a way I like to play the same game as you do. My aim is not so much to convince you as to show you that whatever sense of the superiority of your views you have developed out of a lack of proper challenge may soon be dispelled.

Jane, I hope that you are not seriously planning to desert us! I have hardly even gotten to know you yet, and was just about to ask if you would like to tell us a little about yourself and your background so that we can understand some of your references and what experiences your positions come from. You know what Jane? That poor gay guy in San Francisco, the one who was doing nothing except minding his own business going into a club, and some homophobe attacked him? The one who was in a coma? He died yesterday. And I don't even recall that you ever responded to my post after you asked me to show you specific instances of hate crimes against homosexuals. I was really interested to see what you would say about all that. sfgate.com

Jane, I am honestly trying to understand you, but you seem to be coming from another planet. I am just a middle aged guy from middle America, but I don't know any Christians with special speech patterns. What kind of Christian are you? Our neighbors are Christians, maybe not like you, but they would call themselves that. My wife would say we are a Christian family, though I don't go to church anymore (best time to do work around the yard are the weekend mornings.) None of us talk special, or have secret handshakes, or know anything about the mysteries you mentioned in an earlier post, but we would still check off "Christian" in the box for religion. But we are good people, I think. Our Jewish neighbors are good people too. They've leant me their chainsaw, can't get much more neighborly than that. So Jane what sect of Christianity do you belong to? Do you worship with other people? Does anyone else agree with you? I guess I am just trying to get a sense of how mainstream you think you are.

The Baby-sitter or What about the Children. Jane Hafker Just so they stay away from the kids. You know who you are if you're not doing just that. How did you get that cut in your head ? A child answers his father "As soon as Mom walked out the door the new baby-sitter went nuts. She frog-walked me and my sister over to the dining room table and began making us learn begats. I told her we had homework to do and she completely ignored me, like she didn't even hear us. First thing you know she got the stereo just cranked, playing that new Bob Dylan album Mom likes. We were trying to figure out what everybody's diet should be and she had a list of rules that was just enormous. We had to trim it down to an acceptable menu of 800 calories a day, I don't know what she needed it for. After we had started work on it, she insisted we use her books, she got a bottle of bleach out and started working Mom's new green linoleum, trying to make it white, like she was just bonkers. I thought that the whole thing was getting out of hand when she looked out the back windows into the back yard, well I don't know what she saw out there but she just went ballistic. She phoned somebody and then she told us to get upstairs for our own protection so we did. Anyway, my sister and I started playing doctor because there was nothing else to do and that's when the frying pan hit me....."
