Are You Kathlik?

If you are, or even if you aren't, I hope you have a sense of humor!

Three little boys were worried because they could not get any one to play with them. So, they decided that the reason no one would play with them was because they had not been baptized and, also, because they did not go to Sunday School.

So, off they went to find the nearest church.

But, when they got there, there was only the janitor available.

One of the little boys said to the janitor, "we need to be baptized because no one will come out and play with us!" "Will you baptize us?"

"Sure," said the janitor.

The janitor took the boys into the bathroom and dunked their little heads, one by one, into the toilet bowl. The proclaimed the janitor, "You are now baptized!"

Once the little boys got outside the church, one of them piped up, "So, what religion do you think we are?"

To which the oldest one replied,

"We are not Kathlik, they pour the water on you!"
"We are not babtis, they dunk all of you in the water!" and
"We are not Methdiss, they just sprinkle the water on you!"

At which point, the youngest chimed in with, "Didn't you smell that water?"

All the little boys said in unison, "Yeah! What do you think that means then?"

To which the youngest one replied, "I think it means we are Pisspatarians!"

Can Rape Be A Joke?

Can rape be a joke or perhaps an accident? The Victorian County Court, before Judge Tim Wood, is soon going to have to determine this very issue. The case involves a buck's night, the best man, a stripper, and a strap-on pink dildo. Yes, the makings of a very interesting story and turn of events that have resulted in claims of rape and the rape being nothing more than a joke.

The rape is alleged to have occurred in 2007. Perhaps alleged is the wrong word as the event occurred and all parties agree that it occurred. The substance of this issue is whether the event is rape.

The stripper, Linda Maree Naggs, is accused of using the strap-on pink dildo to violate the best man. After unequivocally stating that he did not want to have the dildo stuck in his anus, Naggs went ahead and did it anyway. This was done in spite of his insistence that he did not want to be violated. It has always been a case of "No" means "No" when one discusses the wishes of a woman declining sexual intercourse. Simply, "No" does not sometimes mean "Yes" or "Maybe" or "just do it as I am only playing hard to get." No means no, and this standard must not differ between women and men.

Naggs has pleaded not guilty to rape.

There is little need to get into the nitty gritty details and specifics. However, suffice to say, the alleged rape caused physical injuries to the best man. And, at this point there was some push and shove, and a demand for a refund of the stripping fee. Naggs refused and then threatened to call in some bikie acquaintances to settle the matter.

The best man kept the black-strapped strap-on pink dildo as evidence and this was tendered to the court.

Rape can never be a joke!
