	What a bunch of idiots. You all act as if this 'Impure' text
	is going to be the holy writ for a vile new empire. No
	chance. The 'PC' people are screaming about 'sensitivity'
	towards rape or whatever ... the hell with it. Deal with
	your own problems and keep the government and censorship
	out of it. What do you all expect ... 'Instant Civility'
	(as defined by the PC) ? Sorry, but it will not happen. 
	If you want to change attitudes, it will take literally
	*generations*. 

	Social and cultural issues cannot be rendered as empirical
	logical decisions. There is no 'right' way that any person
	can deviate from. If the 'Impure' author thought rape might
	be funny under some circumstances ... then he did. Tough
	shit. Who will offer proof positive that a severely predatory
	male-oriented universe is *not* the better way ? You cannot
	do it. Cultural matters are relative.

	Since this is a 'sci' newsgroup ... take it as a Darwinian
	thing ... the more children you father - by whatever means -
	the more your genes will be preserved for the future. In
	this context, 'Curly Pi' and his aggressive attitude will
	win out. Aesthetics pales against genetic survival.
