lol Didn't realize the Alice in Wonderland link was to an idiotic adaptation. I assumed you were going of about the book for some reason. Porn or not, it was pretty bad lol. If it was porn it was a failure of porn, and if it's cinema, it's a failure there too being too gimmicky and not enough story. If you can get a hard on from that movie, well, you're one deprived person lol.
Why else would I provide
links?
Never having seen it (and I'm not quite sure I want to see a cheesy 70s quasi-porn flick), I'm sure you're probably right.
Now, look. Here is America's test for
pornographic content.
Grats you had rich parents.
Thank you for reading. -_- Do you know my father went into $60,000 worth of debt, which - rest his soul - we lost our house trying to pay off? (Thankfully he inherited his mother's house, my grandmother, may she rest in peace, and it is paid off in full.)
They earnestly gave a shit about my education. That's why they did it. Not because they were rich.
Was it excessive on their part? Perhaps. Homeschooling might have worked, too. (That's actually what folks used to do before there were public schools. Educate in-home.) Shame your parents didn't do the same for you.
Funny, I'm no Christian yet I read the new testament and old testament. I also read the Book of Mormon, Buddhist Suttras, studied Tao, Cherokee spiritual beliefs, Mayans, and a smidgen of Hindu. Mainly just so I can discuss and debate. It's a favorite past time.
Oh, do you know many times I and other serious Catholic have come across atheists who read holy books just to debate them? That's as old as Stonehenge and older. Not that debate is a bad thing. You can learn a lot in debate, through which you either end up strengthening your own beliefs, or questioning them.
Oh, and there's a lot more to Christianity than the Bible - or even the teaching authority of the Church (the Magisterium). There's philosophy, like the works of Thomas Aquinas and Augustine of Hippo (there are more recent ones I don't know well), there's history like the Church Fathers and their writings, not to mention exegesis, hermeneutics, and Biblical archaeology.
Any schlub can read the Bible and make his own religion or church out of it. (Case in point: Protestant Christianity, Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses,
Jesuism, and a whole slew of other "sola scriptura" based religions.) It takes a lot of effort, research, and humility - yes, humility, to read the texts unbiasedly - to stumble upon the religion Christ founded.
But I digress.
I quit. You can't win, and neither can I. I'm not posting in this thread against pointlessness. And I rather not get banned.
Suit yourself. I was enjoying talking to you. You seem like a real smart guy despite the fact that sometimes you are incorrect. Sorry if it seemed I was rubbing it in that I had a better education.
But I'm just saying, I'm not a moron. And simply because I'm a Christian doesn't mean I am, either.
