German calendar depicts erotic moments from Bible
Reuters ^ | Fri Dec 2, 2005

A German Protestant youth group has put together a 2006 calendar with 12 staged photos depicting erotic scenes from the Bible, including a bare-breasted Delilah cutting Samson's hair and a nude Eve offering an apple.

"There's a whole range of biblical scriptures simply bursting with eroticism," said Stefan Wiest, the 32-year-old photographer who took the titillating pictures.

Anne Rohmer, 21, poses on a doorstep in garters and stockings as the prostitute Rahab, who is mentioned in both New and Old Testaments. "We wanted to represent the Bible in a different way and to interest young people," she told Reuters.

"Anyway, it doesn't say anywhere in the Bible that you are forbidden to show yourself nude."

Bernd Grasser, pastor of the church in Nuremberg where the calendar is being sold, was enthusiastic about the project which is explained online at www.bibelkalender.de.

"It's just wonderful when teenagers commit themselves with their hair and their skin to the bible," he said.

It will be officially launched at the weekend.

I'm sure Barney Frank got all the "actual men" he wanted, back when his "boyfriend" was running that male prostitution ring out of his home.

Probably enough GOP clientele files to ensure RINO votes by Republicans on key issues. At any given time, there are at least 20 GOP congressmen who are in the closet except on the D.C. cocktail circuit (pun intended).

Between that, and the missing FBI files acquired by the Clintons, I'm only surprised that votes aren't overwhelmingly for Democrat issues all of the time.

Maybe one should go beyond Wikipedia to more learned sources: say, James Beck "The three worlds of Michelangelo" (W.W. Norton, NY 1999), p.143: "[Michelangelo's] sexual experiences, whether heter- or homosexual, were minimal - and possibly non-existent". Ross King, "Michelangelo and Pope's ceiling", (Penguin, NY, 2003) pp 196-197, builds the same case. Besides, to live till age 89 [he died 3 weeks short] in almost perfect health with the capacity to work almost till his deathbed would be incongruent with highly permissive lifestyle. Old debauchees normally die slowly and in decrepitude.

Other than he worked in an artistic climate that revisited classical ideals, there is nothing to indicate that Michelangelo was gay. He has been claimed by the buttsex crowd for the same reason they have claimed Lincoln and Jesus Christ. They reproduce by recruiting. Historical figures lend legitimacy to their deviant lifestyle.

There has been a concerted effort on may fronts to "prove" that Michelangelo was gay. However, I assure you, the only real evidence that the buttsex crowd has are the fact that his statues make them horny, and that people used the term more freely in the letters and conversations of the time. There is NO documentation, merely wishful thinking. It is, in fact, more likely that he was having sex with Vittoria Colonna, a relationship that he would have also have gone out of his way to hide, given the morality of the time.
