Now, care to guess which category on this list is longer?

God is violent. But you don't see God going around having sex with every mortal he FEELS like, unlike Zeus - that son of a bitch.

Well, Yahweh did have to nail Mary, but even then he didn't do it himself and just sat and watched while the Holy Ghost took care of business. Or some other supernatural garbage.
Anyway, have your friend look through some of my biology/anatomy books. I'm going to be taking an Anatomy & Physiology next semester and the first chapter will be about the reproductive system. And the book includes pictures.

Perhaps mention to your friend that they're likely to be chowing down on penis and vah-j-j at dinner time, every night, and have been for their entire life.
Pass the pecker please Mrs. Beaver.

Actually, the gospel of Luke says that "And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them", so it was probably more like an act of bukakke.

This reaction is very similar to an incident involving one actress who portrayed Lara Croft in the video game promotions. Due to her being blessed with a rather eyecatching physique, it was deemed necessary to airbrush away the nipples that were poking through her costume. The reason? "Unsuitable for children"...
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Sex is a very frightening, scary, dirty thing to Christians. Jesus really wants you to loathe your body.

I will never understand how nipples, the very things that are biologically designed to feed children, are "unsuitable for children." America really needs to lighten up about boobies.
