caroljane Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Help would be appreciated in tracing the earliest known sources of the following putative utterings of the founders of today's three leading ideological movements. The latest source we have, Dr. W. Connolly of Barlinnie University, is considerably too late.Mohammed: "Girls. GIRLS! You're not leaving the house dressed like that! Cover yourselves up, for Allah's sake!"Jesus: "I can see yer mother's house from here."Ayn Rand: "When you really think about it, Lennie's a lot cuter than Nate."Research is being done under the aegis of the Heresology Deartment of the University of Irvine.

9thdoctor Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 OK. What kind of sandwich, exactly?The total bill was $1.10, she paid him back, then slept with him anyway. The story doesn't include identification of the sandwich type. You haven't heard of Feynman? I guess you're not into bongo music. Do they even have bongos in Canada?

On the other hand, take Stephen Fry's memoir. In it he gives the full name of the upperclassman who "deflowered" him in boarding school, describing circumstances which amount to child rape. He goes on to share with the reader the man's current occupation, marital status and even what town he lives in, if I remember right. Lesson to 17-18 year old bullies, rape 13-14 year old boys and you may never hear the end of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He joins Sheldon Kennedy and Theo Fleury, courageous men who named their exploiters in defiance of shame and silence.But Feynman, good grief. Since we are going on his word, I'll accept that it was worthwhile for the lady in question.. but $1.10! well, OK, per minute or quantum second or whatever -- I guess that would work out.

caroljane Posted July 2, 2011 Author Share Posted July 2, 2011 (edited) I should add for those who do not recognize the reference: Kennedy and Fleury were not schoolboys but adolescent hockey players, who (along with many others) were raped and forced into submission by their influential coach, who controlled their careers and in effect their lives and those of their families. This man's name is well known in Canada, I will not soil this site with it.His crimes were eventually prosecuted and he went to prison, although not for long enough in my opinion, he is now out. Kennedy and Fleury have freed themselves from from what was done to them, as much as is possible, as has Stephen Fry.

I was too hasty, it is only the rich Objectivists I thought were cheap, and I never met any of them . The poor ones were generous, just like regular poor people.

His attacker is reportedly now facing new charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
