@penny I didnt know powdered shrimp was a thing, might need to try that!
Enjoy!
@chris i wont have a chance to read that until after christmas but i have it book marked as I would like to read it and see what your experiences were in that regard. may be interesting to see your perspective there.
@chris Its a shame religion gets such a bad name. I am not religious in any classical sense (though I wouldnt say im atheist either)... Its always sad to hear all the hate directed at religions. For most, outside of a few radical religious types, it seems positive for the people involved and ultimately helps them through tough times or helps encourage them to be better people. Its hard for me to see the harm in that simply because a small minority of religious extremist are assholes.
@hansw Well im glad i was finally able to get tot he root of the problem.
@freemo Sure, of course! :) Gladly! American Episcopalian but our Priest is a black woman and most of our Vestry is African American and African. And then also a bunch of WASPs cradle Episcopalians... (here's the reading now)
@chris what a curious and interesting diversity of cultures all in one place. I dig it! enjoy!
@cjd Surprised I havent crossed paths with you before.. following.
@chris If you dont mind me asking what denomination is this church? I always like to get a sense of the decoration and styles of a particular denomination.
@trinsec yea might get a few good years out of him. but even 5 years is a short time.
@trinsec Not a recent photo of him, he is getting up there. Likely not too much time left with him I'd suspect.
@iankenway happy to help
Thanks, all good.

No worries, mistakes happen. I should have been more clear towards the top of the post to minimize confusion.

Wait waht, did you even read what the hell I said. I said the instance you posted was legitimate pedophilia...
> Clearly legitimate pediphilia like the stuff you mention
Please try to read what someone says before going half cocked on a rant to disagree with it.

@AugierLe42e I need this, where do I get this!
Thats because it has nothing to do with pedophilia. It was started by someone who has been campaigning to have cartoons of ambiguous women with small tits (which may be children but usually not explicitly stated) banned as being equivalent to pedophilia... they have been ranting on about distasteful drawings being equivalent to pedophilia since they joined the fediverse.
They just go out of their way not to mention the fact that its about cartoon drawings of fictional characters and hope no one notices and just blocks it anyway.
Clearly legitimate pediphilia like the stuff you mention isn't really their top concern. Its an ego trip because they keep getting laughed at every time they throw a fit over a loli cartoon so now they are picking their wording more strategically.
