Now, whatever sexual impropriety Bill Clinton may be guilty of, it couldn't
be
"sodomy" if all you're talking about is oral sex. "Sodomy" historically has
meant ANAL intercourse, as well as "Greek-style" interfemoral intercourse
("pederasty"). When our tight-assed Puritan ancestors (OK, *my* tight-assed
Puritan ancestors!) put their particular sexual biases into law, they
extended
sodomy to include oral intercourse, which previously wasn't even considered
except as a form of "Onanism." THAT is, biblically speaking, "coitus
interruptus" or "coitus reservatus", in which the man does not ejaculate into
the woman's vagina; however, it came to mean the same thing as masturbation,
which the Bible doesn't deal with at all, as far as I know! In fact, if
you're
accusing Clinton of sodomy, he is clearly innocent, because he was VERY
welcoming to Monica and treated her as if she was a member of the harem, er,
family... But that's another story. >>
An interesting and informative posting. I only looked it up in Webster,
because of what the old preacher said. It would certainly be interesting to
get a glimpse of all those definitions the lawyers used at the Jones thing.
Most of the time, it's hard to figure out what anyone is talking about.
About a hundred years ago, if one said a woman was "gay," it meant she was a
prostitute. I remember that when I was in Utah, one school board nixed the
Junior Great Books series because the wolfe in Red Riding Hood had a "screw"
of snuff. God alone knows what they thought that meant, but it was bad
enough to get both the wolfe and Red expelled. Prudy

frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL

be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
