The sacrifices made by adults

The Best Line Ever About Petraeus | Clarissa's Blog


The traditional Christian line is that love is something hard to maintain against the tide of one’s natural tendencies, which are sinful. If one gives in to natural inclinations, one will lose all inhibition, start destroying things and throwing one’s poo around. This would of course be damaging to those who are weak and vulnerable.

Have a particular listen to track eleven. Here the sacrifice of the lives of adult males is justified on behalf of the next generation.


And this sacrifice motif, which permeated my early life, was why I came to feel so guilty as an adult. And then moronic liberals and right wingers would say: "You must be pretty evil to feel so guilty!"

 No. Idiots. It was because people sacrificed for me.
