Quote:Only if you are some sort of fundamentalist, God fearing theist who thinks that any reference to 'naughty parts' is a sin and angers your creator.
If you can get your mind out of the gutter and try to understand the innocence of a child's way of thinking then in a very charming way it is indeed funny.
Um, have a glance at the 'religious views' category.
Why is it that so many of the theists we get here are of the "wouldn't say 'shit' for a shilling" variety? They seem to have the sense of humour of a comatose chicken. Makes sense I guess, they're pretty chicken lipped comments.
Oh dear,I just had a thought (no,really); is the name "Goretti" an allusion to the Catholic saint and mental defective Maria Goretti?
I refer to her as "a mental defective" because that was what I thought when I was told her story at school.
Quote:Maria Goretti (16 October 1890 – 6 July 1902) is an Italian virgin-martyr of the Catholic Church, and is one of its youngest canonized saints. She was martyred after dying from multiple stab wounds, inflicted by her attempted rapist after she refused him because of love of Jesus and her loyalty to the Ten Commandments.[2]
