It's a joke, GR. It wasn't intended as an insult at all.

And, anyways, it's true. The Virgin Mary is in Heaven, is she not? I would think she kept her knickers in the same realm.

We shouldn't be talking about Our Lady like that. Blessed Mary ever Virgin is exactly that "Beata Maria semper virgo." She spent her entire life a virgin, offering that up as a sacrifice for us, in union with the sacrifice of Our Lord. We shouldn't be thinking about those sorts of things in relation to Our Mother.

You wouldn't talk about your own mother's "knickers," would you? If not, then even more should we not talk about Our Lady's knickers, for she is, not only Our Mother, but the Co-Redemptrix, and the Queen of Heaven.

Joke or not, the mods should delete that post.

It is impossible to conceive a child without insemination. Without insemination, the ova will not be fertilized, and will be removed from the body during menstruation, rather than attaching itself to the uterus wall.

Virgin Mary is a mistranslation. It comes from the word virgos, which can mean virgin, or young girl, or maiden, as in an unmarried young woman, which Mary was.

You wouldn't talk about your own mother's "knickers," would you? If not, then even more should we not talk about Our Lady's knickers, for she is, not only Our Mother, but the Co-Redemptrix, and the Queen of Heaven.

The Virgin Mary is not my mother, she is the mother of my savior.

Joke or not, the mods should delete that post.

The First Amendment/Article 10/section 2(b) is usually protected upon this forum, and the flaming normally gets much worse before the mods decide to intervene, especially since no harm was meant at all in this case.

Say what you want, this post is absolutely offensive to any faithful Catholic or Orthodox.

That said, you ignored my question:

Can I talk about your mom the way that the other poster did about Our Lady?

It's defamation against Our Lady! It's obscene! It's against the ToS, from what you said.

The obscene post on that thread, if anything, is the one about Golden Showers.


Now that's obscene.

Yo, be quiet. Just because you are christian doesn't mean that that guy is. He has the freedom to say what he wants, how he wishes.

Christian or not, it was still offensive to Christians, and is therefore at the very least blasphemy, probably obscene, and also defamatory.

We don't enforce any given religious viewpoint on this site. Blasphemy isn't in our rules. Flamebaiting is, but I fail to see how you're being baited. Being offended isn't the same thing as baiting.

Sorry, but slurs against the Virgin Mary, Kali, Thor, Mohammed, Joseph Smith, or any other religious or non-religious figure, unless they are also active members, are pretty much your own lookout.

Will you not at the very least admit it was obscene?

If anyone insults Thor, the Mods don't even need to get involved. He'll solve his own problems... thunder-style. :D

Ghost Tigers Rise, the only post of yours in this thread that is even remotely relevant is the second one. Please stop General-style discussions, cross-references to posts you found amusing, and post-ruling jokes in Moderation. This is not a general discussion forum.
