Is rape natural?
RE: Is rape natural?
I called but no one answered. That is one strike. You do know that's an international call for me, right?

1300 557 644 is the number of a female acquaintance who always seemed to be fairly "generous".
Could give it a try. Her names Heather, tell her you're a friend of Richies. I had a thing with her but nothing serious.

Nope, I just placed more trust in you than I should have.

Damn my trusting nature.

Perhaps not initially but certainly as it matured.

That statement is a Divide By Zero, right there-

OH SHI-

*divides-by-zero this thread*

It was interesting to see where people stand on this topic and it gave me a bit to think about. Served its purpose.

...And then devolved into dick jokes, because...well, we atheists are so intellectually superior and absolute paragons of wit... ROFLOL

From an evolutionary standpoint, I can see how rape would be advantageous. Ghengis Khan raped women in the cities he conquered and was rumored to have had hundreds of offspring because of it. His genetic contribution to the future was assured because of it and he probably has a lot of descendants scattered all over the world right now.

However, from a social standpoint, it's monstrous and barbaric and wrong.

Delete it then. The conversation was an old one, but every thread has the same incorrect statements being made that need to be highlighted.

[modhat] Montana, please don't necropost. This conversation died two years ago. If you've got something to add, perhaps consider starting a new thread or looking at the most recent threads on rape (there's a lot of them) and engaging there. Thanks [/modhat]

"Natural" in science merely means observable. Tornados and cancer are natural but that does not mean we like those things affecting us. Rape is an unfortunate part of evolution, but it is hardly the result of a magic villain. It is natural in that it is a observable action. It is at the same time destructive both physically and mentally to the victim. Neither the good or bad in life need a super natural explanation.
