Curious to know your take on this point of view: Suzie Bright on the Starr Report: And now we have the Starr report. Wanna know what professional sex radicals and pornographers have to say about the "The Referral"? I'll tell you -- we're dyin' out here. It feels like everything we've worked for has been hijacked to some totally isolated island controlled by Pat Robertson's Christian Coalition. Last week friends e-mailed me with requests to get to the bottom of the notorious Footnote 210, the cryptic oral/anal reference that remains unexplained yet dripping with innuendo in the report's index. Is this what all my patient and reassuring essays on anal sex have come to -- a gig as an expert interpreter on the footnotes of a witch hunt? No fucking thanks! The chances of me now running a little innocent sex-ed column about the joys of rimming are absolutely zero. I've never been so turned off to anal sex in my life. Last week I also got the copy-edited proofs for the new edition of "Best American Erotica," my annual anthology of the year's most outstanding erotic prose. As usual, I have a little crush of awe and admiration for every author I include. I think they're each so original and sensitive. But now I look at their valiant work and wonder, "Does anyone want to read erotica anymore?" When the American public is being told that Ken Starr's narrative is the raciest, steamiest prose since Harold Robbins last rubbed himself on a rug, what does that do for the reputation of erotic writing? This sucks! I had thought of writing about the current medical debate about the "size" of the clitoris this week -- but it's impossible to write about anybody's clitoris these days if you don't include Monica Lewinsky's. I want to write about adultery and sex changes and Internet sex communiqués, but I can't even get to my own perspective on these issues without being suffocated by images of Hillary's tight lips and Ken's youthful cross-dressing. Bill pleads to the grand jury, between bathroom breaks, "You've criminalized my sex life!" and I'm saying, "Yeah, well, all you assholes have criminalized everyone else's sex lives from the get-go, and now you've successfully cauterized your own!" Where do we go to have a sweet sexual moment, a private intimate thought, without being invaded by this wire-tapped, semen-stained coup d'état ? Speaking as someone who has agitated on the front lines to illustrate the benefits of erotic candor, I feel robbed, I feel sick. I joked that the Meese Report was unintentionally sexy because it quoted so much actual pornographic prose. But the Starr Report is ANTI-erotic because it takes every sex act, no matter how vivid, and turns it into a cross between shame and chopped liver. Starr may make Clinton look awful, he may crucify privacy rights and due process, but he makes sex look like we're better off without it. SALON \| Sept. 25, 1998 Doug

Have not read yet, but I will. Bibliographical Information: "Armageddon Script: Prophecy in Action", by Peter Lemesurier , Paperback, ElementPublication, 1993, ISBN: 0906540372 . Author's Stated Purpose of Book: Lemesurier states the occult belief that, once a sage utters a prophecy, he sets the stage for that prophecy to be so attractive to the minds of so many people that the "fulfillment" of that prophecy is "guaranteed" at some point in the future. Author sets out to "discover" the principles behind this occult phenomena. Key Points: Author states: 1) Jesus was able to do the many miracles ascribed to Him in His first ministry, largely because of the work of the religious group, The Essenes. Author then "explains" how all the "miracles" in the Gospels were not Divine, but staged; 2) Likewise, the coming Messiah [Antichrist] will deliberately stage the "fulfillment" of the Old Testament prophecies which the Jews are expecting him to fulfill, thereby deceiving them! 3) In the last one-third of the book, Lemesurier lists all the prophecies for which the Orthodox Jew and Fundamentalist Christian are expecting Messiah to be fulfilled; then, he demonstrates how "Messiah" [whom he calls Antichrist on one occasion] will "fulfill" these prophecies, one by one. Thus, the Orthodox Jew and Fundamentalist Christian will accept Antichrist as their long-awaited Messiah and Jesus Christ returned the second time, respectively. 4) In this process, Lemesurier tells us much, much detail as to the Plan to move the world into the New World Order. 5) Author demonstrates the role that the Liberal Mass Media will play in aiding Antichrist to deceive the peoples of the world. Significance of Book; Contribution Book Makes: Lemesurier gives us a check list of events which are planned to move the world to the point where The Christ [Antichrist] may appear. We see that some of these events have already occurred, with many more to come. Interestingly, most of these plans are precisely what the Bible has foretold will happen in the Last Days! Is Information Presented New? Yes, no other author of which I am aware, has given us such a detailed listing of all the deceiving events that Antichrist is going to stage immediately after his appearance, to deceive the entire world. No other author has also given us such a detailed list of the many events which will occur before Antichrist arises, to prepare the world for his appearance. When you put these two lists together, you have an exciting picture of the many coming events designed to successfully stage Antichrist.
