   Speaking as someone who has actually been raped before, I find your “metaphor” despicable.

Why the offense to the metaphor? Surely kairosfocus wasn’t invoking the legal definition for rape. Most likely he’s using one of the other definitions. Based upon his context, I would say he is using the definition indicating rape as any violation or abuse.


Well, thank you pointing that out, and incidentally, for "raping" Charles Darwin again and again, guys. (Goes both ways, does it not?)

This is beyond reprehensible. I truly am almost speechless.

I would like to thank UD for pointing out to me so very clearly the obvious difference, nay, wide gulf between theistic evolutionists and creationists of their ilk. The people at UD obviously have no morals, no values, and nothing to show me but their own nihilism.

Believe me, this has been an education.

What's shocking to me isn't Mullings, who already has a distinguished track record of repulsiveness.  It's the piling-on from the peanut gallery.

Is too rape!

Hey, what is it called when a person in a position of power victimizes another who is entrusted to their care.

What do you call the person who offers defense of this exploitation, and all without any apparent concern for the victim.

I’m laughing, don’t know why. Starbuck praises the abuser, and Doveton mocks offense at a rape metaphor on a thread in which the OP exposes a serious charge of abuse: an older man in a position of power publicly humiliates a young female student who happens to be his charge. Priceless.

If it was indeed "rape," even this cretin would not be laughing. None of them believe that it is really rape - they just pat themselves on the back for their disgusting "metaphor."

What a bunch of metaphor whores. I don't know why I am surprised, after the whole Expelled "rape" of both Charles Darwin and of the Holocaust.
