		<description>&lt;a href="http://christiandomesticdiscipline.com/Home.html"&gt;Christian Domestic Discipline:&lt;/a&gt; &quot;[W]hen you cook a steak, and use high heat to seer the top, and then try to eat it you will find the steak cold and unsatisfying, just like a woman might feel after a very brief but hard spanking, yes she cried but only out of pain and learned only pain from the spanking. But slowly warming her bottom up, you will be able to spank her longer.&quot;

		<description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://christiandomesticdiscipline.com/articlesmenthoughts.html&quot;&gt;Because a timely trip across the husband&apos;s knees usually restores broken fellowship and breeds both love and respect in marriage, the long-term results certainly are not nearly as debilitating as divorce for most couples.&lt;/a&gt;

Thousands of couples could be saved from divorce!  Who knew?

From the same page:

&lt;em&gt;There are three basic ways to control a wife. One is to ignore her. Another is to burden her with chores, responsibilities, and work. The final way is to, in a no nonsense fashion, discipline her personally, privately, and memorably.&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Women nag, men spank. Women have shape tongues, and equally sharp minds, which they can use with great effect. Men have upper body strength. For good or for evil, but use what God gave them.&lt;/i&gt;

DO. NOT. WANT.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;In CDD, the husband has authority to spank the wife.  
The wife does not have authority to spank her husband.&lt;/em&gt;

		<description>Christian domestic discipline is the weirdest subset of sexually-repressed Christians I&apos;ve encountered yet.  The Biblical justification for the act means that there are a lot of Christian couples living very kinky lives &lt;em&gt;and not realizing it&lt;/em&gt;.  I can only imagine some of the awkward conversations that occur between these couples and their more worldly friends.

I can&apos;t really be disturbed by these couples though--in the greater scheme of both the Christian community and the BDSM community they seem like some of the less harmful people.

&lt;a href=&quot;http://shop.christiandomesticdiscipline.com/displayProductDocument.hg?productId=36&amp;categoryId=21&quot;&gt;This&lt;/a&gt;, however, is mind-breaking.</description>

		<description>drjimmy11, I haven&apos;t seen proclamations in this thread of evilness or uptightness, just knowing bemusement. But for what it&apos;s worth I think the mindset behind the action is very relevant. There&apos;s a hell of difference between spanking someone because you both find it hot and spanking someone coz you&apos;re an ass in a dysfunctional relationship.

I don&apos;t think these particular Christians are into spanking because they&apos;re evil. They&apos;re just kinky and rationalizing it.</description>

		<description>My first thought was &quot;wow, that&apos;s a pretty weird way to justify your fetish&quot;.&lt;blockquote&gt;In those days it was the women who wore the makeup, the earrings, the bikinis, and the men treated them like Ladies, albeit sometimes in need of a good spanking. ...

Play spanking in a marriage serves to remind both the husband and the wife of their roles in the relationship. ... Maintenance discipline is a practice of giving your wife regular spankings to maintain her proper behavior and attitude. 
&lt;/blockquote&gt;It all reads straight out of a 1980s S&amp;amp;M handbook. Then I read the site and I honestly can&apos;t decide if this is a parody or not. The blog is full of earnest comments.

&lt;a href=&quot;http://blog.christiandomesticdiscipline.com/2007/03/12/making-the-switch.aspx&quot;&gt;This blog post&lt;/a&gt; explains the crotchless pantaloons.&lt;blockquote&gt;THEN my husband threw a wrench in my spokes when he asked me to stop wearing underwear under my skirts. ... This was him half-jokingly telling me he&#8217;d really love it if I were perpetually &#8220;available&#8221; to him ... So now on cold days I wear crotch-less pantaloons with knee-high socks or hose.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>I&apos;m wondering, though: could this be some kind of odd secular BDSM fetish? Ie, not really being Christians but pretending to be Christians because the sexual repression makes it that much more+++ sexy? 

I just have a hard time wrapping my mind around Rev. Dr. Pastor Jim Rob Williams III spanking the missus and not realizing how kinky it is.</description>

		<description>Crucial bit: &lt;em&gt;Though we recognize by its very nature this subject can be erotic, we will keep this website as clean and wholesome as possible.  However, we will not seek to deny the erotic nature of some CDD marriages as we believe it is a natural consequence of following God&apos;s plan.  After all, He created eroticism to be enjoyed inside a Christian marriage.&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>And verily, the failure to follow the precepts are part and parcel of why this nation is circling God&apos;s moral drain.  When wives refuse their husbands their God-given right to spank heinie within the marital unit, they are forcing their husbands onto the path of waywardness leading to paying the $5 hooker for the right to spank their heinie.  Repent you sinners!</description>

		<description>While I loves me some spanking (I also loves me some &quot;I loves me some&quot;) this is approximately ten million times creepier than I would have guessed just from reading the thread.

The charitable reading is that it&apos;s just a BDSM lifestyle gussied up with an extra frisson of religious tension.  Except... it doesn&apos;t come across that way when you read the site.  

The &lt;a href=&quot;http://christiandomesticdiscipline.com/articlesintroducingspouse.html&quot;&gt;page on introducing it to your wife&lt;/a&gt; makes me laugh though.  &quot;Honey, this is totally not a sexual thing, it&apos;s just about power in the relationship, I swear!  Where are you going?  Honey?&quot;</description>

		<description>The only thing I find slightly icky about this site is the non-consensual spanking note.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Though we believe the Bible gives a husband the authority to use spanking as one tool in enforcing his authority in the home with or without his wife&apos;s permission, in today&apos;s world we recognize the legality that mandates that all CDD must be consensual.  Therefore we will do not condone nonconsensual CDD as a rule.&lt;/blockquote&gt; 

And that&apos;s also the difference between this and secular BDSM, people in if for their kinks generally aren&apos;t pretending that their relationships are a model for all relationships, or that spankings are mandated by god. That said compared to some of the things people try to justify in the name of god, this site seems fairly harmless. And hell, maybe it&apos;ll give some kinky repressed fundies a chance to get their freak on.</description>

Pesky secular laws!

Plus, &lt;a href=&quot;http://christiandomesticdiscipline.com/lcgirlscouts.html&quot;&gt;Girl Scouts are evil&lt;/a&gt;:

&quot;I arrived just as the meeting was getting ready to begin, nodding at all the ladies present as I seated myself around the table with perhaps fifteen or twenty other Girl Scout leaders... all of a sudden I began to feel this&#8230;frigidness&#8230; this overwhelming coldness and oppression I recognized at once as originating from Satan...

I was confused.  As I looked around the room, I noticed that the majority of the other leaders all had their hair cut off clean to their ears and were dressed quite manly, but other than that, I could see nothing out of the ordinary. ..

If you have ever experienced spiritual discernment and have felt the cold oppressiveness of evil, you will understand what I mean. 

...[the she discovered] Girl Scouts of America was involved, perhaps even heavily involved, with Planned Parenthood.&quot;

Also: Lesbian troop leaders!  A can&apos;t-miss.</description>

		<description>Their website design is so... light, and airy, and floral. More like a douche commercial than any of the bdsm sites I&apos;ve ever seen.

If the wife cries out &apos;Oh God!&apos; or &apos;Jesus Christ!&apos; while being spanked or taken in her muslin pantaloons, does that count as blasphemy or worshipful praise?</description>

I&apos;m not going to argue with you as I have no pressing need to pin this on Christianity or not... however, I&apos;d pay good money to watch you argue with this guy, particularly if it it ended with one of you getting spanked.

&lt;small&gt;and possibly enjoying it&lt;/small&gt;</description>

		<description>I can&apos;t stop reading this site. It just gets &lt;a href=&quot;http://christiandomesticdiscipline.com/originsotk.html&quot;&gt;creepier and creepier&lt;/a&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Because females generally lack upper body strength, any attempts to rebel by raising the upper body are minimal. Nevertheless, if the wife attempts to use her free hand to protect herself or otherwise interfere, it can be pinned to her back or side with the hand that would otherwise wrap around her waist. If more control is required, it may be achieved by the husband leaning more of his torso weight on her back.&lt;/blockquote&gt;So far I haven&apos;t found any mention of safewords. I guess good Christians don&apos;t need them? Eek.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;The following OTK position for disciplining wives is adapted from a method used and recommended by a registered nurse to paddle high school and college aged daughters. It is suggested in this forum because, as experienced husbands and fathers are aware, there is not much difference in paddling a rebellious teenager or her difficult mother.&lt;/i&gt;

		<description>I guess we should be thankful that these christian husbands are just spanking their wives and not, say, making their wives wear veils.

Ages ago, two philosophy professors of mine had opposite views on religion.  One took Dostoevsky&apos;s view that if nothing is true, everything is permitted.   The other maintained that God has been used as the primary rationalization for most major atrocities in world history, so it was precisely the concept of God which permitted everything.

As vaguely religious myself, I fall somewhere between those two viewpoints, though I guess I mostly side with the latter philosopher -- and this helps confirm that.</description>

		<description>The reactions to this site demonstrate exactly what&apos;s wrong with contemporary America.

Describing God-ordained discipline as kink or fetish, while celebrating loose sexual relations where spanking is merely &apos;optional&apos; or &apos;fun&apos;...? That&apos;s how far we&apos;ve fallen from the Christian Nation based in Biblical Principles intended by the Founding Fathers. Don&apos;t you people understand: it&apos;s not gays who&apos;re destroying marriage, it&apos;s the lack of obedience in healthy Christian families. We&apos;ve become so confused that even those degenerates understand love better than regular families. &quot;Leather Daddy&quot; homosexuals demanding marriage rights are merely a sign of degradation, a symptom of how sick our society has become.  Why else would these sick souls be clamoring to start the families that good Christians would rather avoid through serial premarital monogamy or divorce?

Look, the Lord Jesus Christ gave us a clear chain of command: children obey parents, wives obey husbands, and husbands obey God. Thus, everyone is ultimately answerable to God, and He is the Commander-in-Chief. Just as parents spank children and husbands spank wives, God &apos;smites&apos; us when we disobey him, as we&apos;ve been doing for decades. That&apos;s why we have AIDS, drugs, and terrorism: that&apos;s our &apos;spanking&apos; for falling away from His grace and (G)ood (O)rderly (D)irection. It&apos;s so clear: why can&apos;t you hear God&apos;s will for you all?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt; It&apos;s so clear: why can&apos;t you hear God&apos;s will for you all?&lt;/i&gt;

Maybe once I buy my wife that Holy Ball Gag, it will be easier to hear God&apos;s will.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;ChrisTN&lt;/strong&gt;: I&apos;m sure you mean well, but I should point out that physical restraints are much less Godly than mental discipline inspired by a healthy respect for authority, or at least a sensible fear of punishment. A wife that can arrest her own tongue is much more virtuous than a woman who must be gagged. But at least you&apos;re both listening for God&apos;s voice! That&apos;s great start!</description>

		<description>I am so thoroughly creeped out right now.

One of the recommended links is to &lt;a href=&quot;http://lovingdd.blogspot.com/&quot;&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; blog, which seems slightly more ready to admit that there is a BDSM element to all this.  Be sure to scroll down to the December 18, 2006 entry on suggestions for what to do if one becomes aroused during the process.</description>

		<description>Now that it&apos;s sunk in a bit, I don&apos;t think the whole wife-dominating thing is the creepiest part of it. I find 24/7 D/s things a bit creepy because of the intensity of it, regardless of the genders. But, you know, consenting adults and all that...

What&apos;s creepier is that, in some percentage of these relationships, there&apos;s kids in the picture. This isn&apos;t just Daddy and Mommy breaking out the handcuffs when the kids are at sleepovers. Monthly/weekly/daily &quot;Maintenance Discipline&quot;, involving spanking her to tears... The kids are going to hear that eventually, and either wonder or figure out what&apos;s going on.

&quot;Mom, why does Dad spank you and make you cry?&quot;

&quot;Because Mommy needs to know her place. If Dad doesn&apos;t spank me, I&apos;ll be too willful and won&apos;t submit to Dad&apos;s will and needs. And that&apos;s bad. Understand now, son?&quot;

&quot;Uh...&quot;</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;&quot;30 shekels says this site was built by one single guy whose wife didn&apos;t believe him when he said his spanking fetish was compatible with good honest Christian values. &quot;Look honey, I found a respectable Christian website that explains away all your fears!&quot;
&lt;/em&gt;
Actually, I&apos;ve had quite a bit of contact with members of a group (cult?) of radical Christians, for whom a lot of the content of this site seems to ring true.  I don&apos;t know if they spanked their wives or not, but the women definitely wore pantaloons (under their long skirts), they were distrustful of women with short hair, submissive to their menfolk, etc.  Basically, everything under the &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://christiandomesticdiscipline.com/Leahscorner.html&quot;&gt;Leah&apos;s Corner&lt;/a&gt;&quot; of the site (&quot;Exegetical Defense of the Woman as Keeper at Home,&quot; &quot;The Feminism of the Mothers is the Destruction of the Daughters,&quot; &quot;Pastor Bob on Dresses vs. Pants,&quot; and so forth) is something I heard in one form or another from women of this group (the men didn&apos;t really talk to me).  

I could go on and on about their various wackinesses/troubling habits/strange children....but yeah.  There are people who really live this way.</description>

		<description>No safewords, no way of refusing...that ain&apos;t BDSM, that&apos;s just abusive. No matter how fancy your &quot;biblical&quot; justification. Or any other kind. Just plain old wife abuse, I&apos;m afraid.

Sounds like &lt;a href=&quot;http://pandagon.net/2005/05/12/womens-bodies-belong-to-dr-hagar/&quot;&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; guy that Bush appointed to the FDA, who forced his wife to have anal sex and hurt her, until she divorced him.

As Marcotte put it in that link, 

&lt;em&gt;people call this sort of thing hypocrisy, since he moralizes and moralizes and moralizes while tormenting his wife. But I see it as completely consistent&#8211;the whole Jeebus thing is a weak cover story, a smiley face slapped on to hide that the real belief that women are objects, Others, toys to be controlled and manipulated.&lt;/em&gt;

This post kind of reminds me of prison rape jokes...it&apos;s all considered funny, unless you consider that a human being is being hurt in a way that they don&apos;t deserve, no matter how mild (though a spanking can definitely hurt you) or &quot;deserved&quot; (by the prisoner...because supposedly, rape is not one of the punishments we actually condemn people to. Something about cruel and unusual, maybe the same reason we don&apos;t use thumbscrews).

And an asshole who spanks his wife against her will probably doesn&apos;t stop at that form of beating. So, not so funny.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&quot;This is about as Christian as the bottom of Osama Bin Ladin&apos;s shoe.&quot;&lt;/b&gt;

Sayeth the prophet konolia, whose prophet super powers are so awesome that she doesn&apos;t even need to view the material at hand before making a judgment.&lt;/i&gt;

I can predict without reading that site that it&apos;s going to be anti-feminist; why shouldn&apos;t konolia be able to predict that the site&apos;s un-Christian? It&apos;s obviously aimed at those who follow a very narrow, fundamentalist interpretation of scripture that I believe most mainstream denominations would reject at least in part (otherwise, why the articles on the site lamenting men&apos;s supposed &quot;abdication of the leadership role in the family&quot;?). I have my differences with konolia, but I think this snark is unfair.</description>

		<description>On further reading:

&lt;i&gt;The following OTK position for disciplining wives is adapted from a method used and recommended by a registered nurse to paddle high school and college aged daughters. It is suggested in this forum because, as experienced husbands and fathers are aware, there is not much difference in paddling a rebellious teenager or her difficult mother. The preliminaries, procedures and product can be quite similar.&lt;/i&gt;

All these people need a strong dose of some good old Victorian flogging porn. Whether they know it or not.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;The comparatively smooth transitioning from lecture to punishment positioning eliminates the need to move the wife to the side before bending them over. A towel on the husband&apos;s thigh can both alleviate hygienic concerns as well as minimize the effect of unforeseen stress incontinence. 
&#65533;
Nevertheless, unless the constraints of time are a paramount consideration, as might happen when privacy is scarce and something must be done immediately to correct the state of affairs, it is a good idea to insist a wife to use the restroom before presenting herself for disciplining.&lt;/i&gt;

Why do I imagine the author of this piece experiencing a painful, not to be denied arousal while writing this?</description>

&lt;i&gt;Why do I imagine the author of this piece experiencing a painful, not to be denied arousal while writing this?
posted by jokeefe at 6:18 PM on May 20 &lt;/i&gt;

&quot;The impact of this kind of distraction on the woman being disciplined cannot be underestimated. It can be extremely disappointing for a woman to have her punishment or maintenance spanking turn into a lovemaking session, even though she would normally welcome the opportunity to have sex with her husband. It may seem illogical for a woman to be disappointed by the prospect of having her punishment canceled in favor of a lovemaking session. But the purpose of discipline is not sex, even if the couple will eventually make love some time after the woman&apos;s punishment.&quot;</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;How can the problem of sex overtaking the disciplinary process be resolved? The first solution is simply one of awareness. Simply realizing the detrimental effects of prematurely halting a woman&apos;s discipline can be enough for the HOH (and perhaps his woman too) to modify his behavior. Some women know that it would be better for them to be properly punished, yet will actively encourage their HOH&apos;s sexual attentions, merely to escape the pain of their spanking. This is not behavior that benefits the woman, so she should stop it. This issue is not always entirely the HOH&apos;s fault, it must be noted. If an HOH observes that his woman is attempting to use her sexual wiles to distract him from his duty of punishing her for her own good, he should realize that his woman is guilty of disobedience, dishonesty and disrespect. Since her disobedience has taken place during the disciplinary process, she has committed the type of offense that should be dealt with via a firm Disobedience Discipline. It is completely unacceptable for the woman to attempt to undermine the punishment process and her HOH&apos;s resolve by attempting to turn the situation from a disciplinary one into a sexual one.

The second solution to this problem is to deal with the issue of sexual arousal. One way of doing this is to simply have more frequent sex. If an HOH has to discipline his woman but has not had the chance to make love to her for some hours/days/weeks/months, he will be more likely to become aroused during the punishment process. Making love more frequently will mean that the woman&apos;s naked body will not be a stranger to her HOH. It will mean that his sexual appetites will have been more recently sated. This will free him to punish her more thoroughly, leaving her sobbing and submissive but ultimately deeply happy and fulfilled in her womanhood.&lt;/i&gt;

which is why they need the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cafepress.com/lovingdd.36432204&quot;&gt;Loving Domestic Discpline Thong&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>Well, I was going to say that there are no words, but there are. Spousal abuse or mutually-consenting BDSM wrapped in the pages of the New Testament is still spousal abuse or mutually-consenting BDSM, and neither sounds like the kind of Christianity I was taught. Far be it from me to judge since I&apos;m not a parent, but what about the children being raised in such environments?

And why can&apos;t I get the word &quot;hypocrisy&quot; out of my head?</description>

		<description>What do you expect? They worship a torture device!

Jesus in heaven: So, Paul, couldn&apos;t you have found a little more, i don&apos;t know, &lt;i&gt;inspirational&lt;/i&gt;  image for me to be remembered by? I mean, healing the lepers maybe, or raising Lazarus from the dead, or hey maybe the loaves-and-fishes thing. Man, remember that wedding? Good times, good times... Yeah, whenever i check in on a church on earth i see nothing but me writhing in agony. What&apos;s up with that?

Paul: J-man, you know i always loved you best. Oh shit, man, i gotta go, Saddam needs to use the only pay phone down here.</description>

		<description>I thought about this web site and discussed it with my husband all weekend long.  I have many, many more questions than when I started.  For example:

How long does the preemptive spanking continue?  If she hasn&apos;t gone over-budget on her shopping expeditions for two years, do you continue to preemptively spank her before she goes shopping?  What&apos;s the point of being &quot;good&quot; if you are going to be punished anyway?

And what about illness or other situations?  If her mother dies do you still stick to the schedule?  What about pregnancy and aftermath?

And my biggest question is, when do you stop?  Do you spank her on the same schedule for 50 years until the point that you risk breaking her hip or something?

And peeled ginger in the anus?  Really?  I thought I knew a lot about kinky sex-- leave it to the fundamentals to know more than I do.</description>

&lt;a href=&quot;http://spankingart.wikia.com/wiki/Figging&quot;&gt;Here&apos;s&lt;/a&gt; more than you probably want to know about the practice, with links to MUCH more.  (Much of the site is NSFW.)</description>

		<description>Some of us &lt;i&gt;like&lt;/i&gt; our steak rare, thank you.  But I guess they feel the need to burn the Hell out of it.

Which page was the ginger on?  I couldn&apos;t find that part.  Recipes?</description>

		<description>Figging is a fundie practice?

It astounds me that such people could possibly stray so very, very far from the red-lettered parts of the NT and yet still call themselves Christian.

&lt;small&gt;&lt;i&gt;Figging originates in the Victorian era. It was used on horses at horse auctions. Figging would make a horse more lively and hold its tail better. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;No doubt it was more lively.  Ginger root up the ass, indeed.&lt;/small&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://lovingdd.blogspot.com/&quot;&gt;Loving Domestic Discipline Blog:&lt;/a&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;There are many other types of so-called &quot;discipline&quot; that do not really form a part of Loving Domestic Discipline as we know it. This is not to say that they are wrong or bad, but rather to say that they don&apos;t fall within the Loving Domestic Discipline definition of Non-Spanking Discipline. These include activities like enemas, figging (inserting a peeled piece of ginger root into a woman&apos;s bottom and leaving it there for some time), making her pee in front of her HOH, etc. These fall into a more BDSM approach to discipline rather than a Loving Domestic Discipline approach.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

So they don&apos;t &lt;i&gt;practice&lt;/i&gt; it, they just know about it.

But if you think the spankers are strange, you should read up on this group: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.xfamily.org/index.php/Loving_Jesus&quot;&gt; The Children of God&lt;/a&gt; believe in loving Jesus...I mean &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; loving Jesus.  Here is an excerpt from their booklet &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Loving Jesus!  for Junior Teens:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;[To the young teen boys] In your lovemaking with Jesus you are not a man. You are making love to Him as His Bride, His spiritual wife. This is not a male-with-male relationship. It is a spiritual female, you, making love to a male, Jesus. He is the man, the Bridegroom, and you are the woman, His Bride, His wife.&lt;/blockquote&gt;  

They have a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.xfamily.org/index.php/Love_words_to_Jesus&quot;&gt;whole page&lt;/a&gt; of spicy things you can say to Jesus as you masturbate or have sex with someone else such as:
&lt;blockquote&gt;I crave You, Jesus. I&apos;m hot for You! My legs are spread to receive Your penis! Enter into me! Give me Your seeds.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>Secret Life of Gravy, that is so wrong&amp;hellip; ok, so we have this omniscient deity, alright&amp;hellip; he&apos;s personified&amp;hellip; ok, I can deal with that&amp;hellip; so you&apos;re supposed to &lt;i&gt;love&lt;/i&gt; him, personally&amp;hellip; getting away from many traditions, but ok, if it makes sense to Xtians, it&apos;s their religion after all&amp;hellip; but now this sect of Christians are supposed to think of themselves as women and scream, &quot;Fill me with Your seeds. Flood me with Your seeds. Explode in me!&quot;

Pretty roundabout way to just admit that you&apos;d like dressing up as a woman and being penetrated. It&apos;s ok people!! You don&apos;t need the perverted theology for that!!</description>

		<description>C&apos;mon, they eat the flesh and drink the blood of their saviour.  Might as well fuck him as well.

Christianity would be a whole lot better without the silliness.  The actual red-lettered bits of the NT are a pretty decent bit of philosophy.  The tawdry trappings of the religious component, though... ugh!</description>

		<description>Ohhh, from the blog.  Okay.  I didn&apos;t really look beyond the first page, there.

...Okay, I didn&apos;t realize any of the people writing Bible porn were actually Christians.  I think I have to share that link with all my friends now.

It also brings the question: can a man get pregnant from Jesus?

Oh!  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.filthylies.net/images/sidenews/flstrip2.gif&quot;&gt;And...&lt;/a&gt;</description>
