"He defied the existing rules for ejaculation but was killed by an angry father. "
The Bible says God killed him for not fullfilling the custom of giving his dead brother an heir...Onan actually comitted an act of withdrawal during intercourse is my reading of it though it certainly could have been masturbation. If masturbation were the real sin then a lot of us males would have been "ahem" dead before we reached the age 12!
Onan was a son of Judah....it was from the line of Judah that "Lion of the Tribe of Judah" would emerge. One can get an idea just how seriously God took Onan's act of rebellion as it would effect events some 1.5 millenia later!

So some Democrat is gonna teach kids how to do what he's been doing to the nation all these years; well, the specified activity is a Democrat specialty, after all.

I guess Marxists are now working to bring us the Wankers' Paradise, just as pleasant as their Workers' Paradise.
Unbelievable !!!!!
If this sick fiend wins, I would expect part of Massachusetts to just spontaneously burst into flame soon after.
Is he a Master Debater or just a Cunning Linguist?

Not only that, but for pretending to carry out his societal obligation while refusing to do so effectually. The bible provided that men in that situation who did not wish to lie with their brother's widow could publicly refuse to do so, but would have to accept the public's condemnation. Onan tried to cheat--to reap the benefits of performing his obligation without actually having to perform it.
Judah was the same line thru which Jesus Christ would come...My personal opinion is that Satan tried to stop the coming of Jesus. He tried again thru the holocaust of the first born Hebrew males in Egypt. Herod tried to kill all male children under 2-3 years of age in Bethlehem but Jesus already escaped with his parents.
It makes you wonder with today's holocaust of aborted babies just what Satan is trying to stop now!
"Aaarrrgghh!!!"
---to which I can only add "Yyyyyuuuccccchhhh!!!"
It occurs to me that somebody with this huge a fetish about masturbation to make it a very wide plank on his political platform and thereby politicize it as a partisan position, is also of the political party that makes a fetish of the "choice" of abortion. Consider both these things as if they were each illuminated by the light of the other. The men blithely wasting their sperm whenever the whim strikes them, and the women grabbing onto their "right" to destroy burgeoning life within them. Another way to waste the sperm their Lib "partners"
forgot to waste, and both these things treated as if they were "positive values".(Pause) God, I'm good.
